I think you've well and truly made your point and I don't agree.

I think it's obvious that Donald has an eye for design and cares very much about the visual aesthetics of his amps. The blue of the Stratus and Sonett is a deliberate design choice that sets his creations apart from the rest. So I think that the discussion regarding his colour choice was warranted. However, I also think that we've exhausted the topic. This thread contains numerous posts pertaining to the sonics of the Stratus if you'd care to read them.

Donald, I'm a fan of your visual design choices. I think that Radio_head put it nicely when he described your amps as "functional art", and that's how I regard them. They are unique audio design statements that stand alone. Bemoaning that your amps don't come in other colours is missing the point, which is a bit surprising given that you've already explained it.
Hey I like his amp or I wouldn't even say anything. Obviously there are others who would like the other color options, that's all.

Guys, do we have nothing more to contribute to this thread than a discussion of the color of the amp ? Seriously ? I could be way off beam here, but I doubt that Donald spends hours building each amp in the fervent hope that the COLOR ranks above the sonics in his customers list of priorities.

They're now silver with black trim. I'm not interested in making a silver colored amplifier. To each his own.
