Recent equipment you hated, thought overpriced


Enough with the glowing accounts and positivity. What equipment have you bought in the last couple of years that you either just hated or thought sounded good but was significantly overpriced? Dish it out.

Elizabeth, the horror, 'glass shelves'? They need to be covered, quickly, as you are missing much of the joy of your setup/room. You should know better.
Audiooracle, sucker you are. Rolex? Not a time piece, but a piece of jewelry, eye candy. It has its counterpart in audio in the many, many high priced products that really do not improve on the sound experienced. I suggest you read, and re-read Jim Smith's book on 'Better Sound'. As you know, Jim has in depth experience in audio, including being a dealer, and he has never been 'taken' by the high price tweaks. It is all about the room and its setup.

i assume that if you hated a component , you wouldn't have bought it.
so too, if you liked a component, but thought it was overpriced, you wouldn't buy it.

Mrtennis, do you understand the purpose of Audiogon? By/sell used gear over the internet which does not allow for auditioning.
I have purchased many items without knowing whether or not I would like them. It's a crap shoot, some I like others not so much.
But to answer the OP's question: Dynaudio 1.3SE monitors. I expected big things from these speakers and was sorely let down. I knew how bad they were when I realized I kept turning the volume down to save my ears the pain.
Sequerra Met 7.7 Mk6. Purchased factory direct (through ebay). I'd just as soon listen to my computer speakers. And these were rated "Class B" in Stereophile. So much for professional reviews.
Oppo DV980h. Purchased new. Just an average cdp IMO. Not overpriced, just way over hyped.
