High End 2011

Don’t delay if you fall in love with this beauty: Telefunken told me that they’re looking for more Nixi tubes, but at present only have enough to make 400 examples of this remarkable clock. Looking like the head off a Vox or Fender guitar amp, the Modell TubeClock (€499) must be the default audiophile timekeeping choice if you can’t afford McIntosh’s cool timekeeper.
