This happens when you hire a good designer.

i like it as well,...
i think the knobs succeed in making it stylish while maintaining the minimalism of the cuboid form factor.

I've seen better design from some of the "wannabes" here.

🙁

Id like to see any thing you have designed ? Wanna show us something that you have designed ?

Those knobs look retarded.

Naim Audio inspired knobs?

My first thought was it looks like a design by "Sinclair" from the late '60s.

No, would have needed more plastic and general tackiness to look like a System 60. Whoops, showing my age.

I think it looks fine. She-who-must-be-obeyed wouldn't allow such a thing in the living room but it looks good for the amount of effort required to make it. And that makes it good design in my book.

If you look around on the forum, you will find many things he has designed.

He actually builds stuff that looks good, and it even works 😀

One can sure hope for a remote, cause actually turning those knobs with your hand, is not going to be fun in the long run.

I don't think it would give anyone RSI, but to me it just looks daft.
Seriously, my initial thought was that it looks like the failed project of a special ed student who was trying to build a broom broom car, but couldn't quite figure out where to put the wheels.

Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder, they say ... My opinion is that that is one ugly box but then again I'm just a "wannabe" and not a "good designer". Chinese produce better looking designs (especially once all the LEDs are stripped off).

I'm not hiding anything...look around.

I somehow dislike the way too big ( and flat ) knobs. I guess I´ve seen better DIY devices too.

Thank you sir! 😎
I return the compliment: you put together some very awesome designs yourself!

This one from your DIY I like for the shape and blend of materials the most. Reminds me of some expensive Italian Hi-Fi style somehow.

It's good to know I'm not alone on this issue. Why so much love for wood around here on heat generating equipment like tube amp? 🙄
