I'll cast a vote for the Zen Torii.

Honey, have you seen my picture frame??

don't know if it's the "best looking", but I really like the aesthetics of my hp tube amp

Yeah. It is very nice. I like the red base and the 300B's. Are they EML mesh?

 

[phaeton70]

yup!! EML 300B Mesh , really very nice sounding tube

I have been looking into a next amp project and this amp I see is potentially superior to anything else I have seen so far.
Advantages are DHT & selectable transformer outputs.
Not sure about stage coupling and volume though.
Excellent amp technically, visuals are nice with gloss paint,
But really should be secondary to sound anyways.

 

[phaeton70]

actually very nice sounding, at least to my old and broken ears

 
it's a pure 2 stage design (driver is G&C CV1067, single triode tube, one per channel), coupling is LC (anodic inductor with an AudioNote capacitor, the only one in series with the signal), all heaters are dc, the anodic voltage for the drivers is stabilized with a 6b4g, the rectifier is a GZ33. to reduce hum there a modified UltraPath design for the output tubes.

Very nice. I've heard good things about them. A friend is getting a set for his 300B Glenn amp.

Seems to be a great amp. One day I will own something like that.

Here is mine. Not the greatest but it keeps me happy for now.



I'm using solid state rectification. Probably a filthy word around here however it seems to keep the amp very stable.

that's a very nice amp, congrats!!

Another LUXMAN beauty : the SQ-N100 limited Edition  headphone/speaker amp.

RED means METAL sound.
 

 
Ok, so its a guitar vacuum tube amp.

Always thought the Yaqin MS-650B looked nice
