What do you guys think about this?

Hideous is the correct word to describe that! :hurl:

Yeah. Looks like Mud. :)

Seriously. Looks like a Stonehenge version of those "antique" stereo units with the CD in the front and a plastic 'record player' inside.

Gross.

Maybe it would appeal to the Bang & Olufsen crowd?

You can kneel before it. I think that's a brilliant thing. But needs improvement.

No one has mentioned that at the $7000 opening bid, it's a real bargain.

I'd be more interested if it looked like black polished marble with 24kt gold veins. Of course this is after I win the lottery. :D

I thought last year's model, the "Carbonna Freeza", was much more attractive. See for yourself.........here's a photo taken in 2002 at the Art & Sound factory of one just coming off of the assembly line:

No. I used to be part of the B&O crowd AND I have a BFA (Bachelor of FINE arts degree) and I agree that we are looking at the most hideous CD ever to be seen by the eyes of man. Yowza!
