Has anyone heard the new North American products preamp and amp?

Any publicity may be good publicity compared to none. But one would expect spreading misinformation to backfire eventually. 

The truth often only comes out over time.  

A few fans on a thread is better than nothing but this ain't conquering the world quite yet.   We'll see.   I'm always all for better sound.

Some manufacturers sell the sizzle not the steak. If you have the real deal - you don't have to lie about it.

It is self evident.

Very true.  

But out then again how to account for all the marketers in the world?   

You gotta get the word out.  

Its just  if you use a public forum to do it anything is fair game.  No news really there.   its the price you pay for free advertising.

"So vibrations being drained seem to be important to sound also."

nobody ever said they weren’t. You have to isolate and dissipate. You can also damp. I wrote about the importance of damping the top plate of isolation devices twenty years ago.  Gee, how time flies. And that's also why my iso platforms came with integrated vibration dissipation for the top plate. Plus constrained layer damping of transformers and CD transport compartments not to mention capacitors is pretty much de riguer these days. In terms of distortion you never know what you got til you lose it. Or put another way, you get used to whatever level of distortion you’ve got. As I mentioned somewhere along the line on one of these threads there are many causes of distortion, some of which are those things that go bump in the night. You know what I'm talking about.

"I have been able to greatly improve the sound of Roger’s amp..."

Ouch! That’s gotta hurt.

PT Barnum quotes

“Advertising is to a genuine article what manure is to land, - it largely increases the product.”

“WHATEVER YOU DO, DO IT WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT Work at it, if necessary, early and late, in season and out of season, not leaving a stone unturned, and never deferring for a single hour that which can be done just as well now. The old proverb is full of truth and meaning, "Whatever is worth doing at all, is worth doing well."

“The possession of a perfect knowledge of your business is an absolute necessity in order to insure success.”
― P.T. Barnum, Art of Money Getting: Golden Rules for Getting Money

"Perpetual motion has been the dream of scientific visionaries, and a pretended but cheating realization of it has been exhibited by scamp after scamp. I understand that one is at this moment being invented over in Jersey City. I have purchased more than one “perpetual motion” myself."
