Looks like a touch of the Quad 33's going on there!
It think that styling was not the strong side of the British manufacturers of hifi gear compared to for example the japanese, danish, norwegian etc.
I wouldn't say that, and I am a big fan of Japanese and Norwegian receivers. The Goodmans one ten, 150, Leak 2000, Armstrong etc are all nice designs in their own way albeit not so glitzy and 'expensive' looking as Japanese ones. British designs tended to fly their own flag (they were all different) whereas Japanese designs all tried to look the same as each other but better - if you get my drift.
