To honor eight decades of innovation, Onkyo is rolling out a limited‑edition Muse Series network streamer and integrated amplifier that trades in sterile hi‑fi styling for mid‑century warmth. Revealed at CES 2026, the anniversary model features a champagne‑gold aluminum chassis with real‑wood walnut veneer side panels and takes its design cues from the brand’s 1960s M‑588 stereo amplifier. The silhouette, complete with a central volume knob and horizontal grille, looks like it belongs on the set of a vintage lounge but hides thoroughly modern circuitry.

While Onkyo hasn’t published full specifications, the company positions the anniversary Muse Series amplifier as a flagship expression of its past and future. Expect streaming support for all the major platforms and connectivity options befitting a 2026 hi‑fi: HDMI ARC, Bluetooth, Wi‑Fi, Ethernet and a suite of analog inputs. The amplifier will join the wider Muse lineup later this year and is slated for a summer launch in limited numbers. Pricing has yet to be announced, but given the artisanal materials and small production run, it will likely sit above the $1,499 price of the standard Y‑50 model.

The retro‑modern aesthetic recalls Onkyo’s collaborations on the Klipsch Flexus soundbar system, but the Muse anniversary edition leans fully into Japanese craftsmanship. Collectors who lust after vintage receivers and have followed Onkyo’s recent rebound will appreciate the nod to history.

For those who want a piece of hi‑fi art that also streams Spotify, Tidal and Chromecast without fuss, this celebratory amp could be the crown jewel of a living‑room system when it debuts this summer.
