Does it annoy you when companies don't show the internals of electronics ?

I noticed that merrill audio and mcintosh general don't show all the internals of their electronics. A friend of mine actually asked merrill to see pics of the internals of their amps and pres. The remark from merrill... 'people listen to how they sound they don't look at whats inside.'

But why hide it? Are they trying to protect some secrets of their tech? Might as well just show it... if you have dones something truly exceptional people will appreciate that and its going to be that easy to rip off.

Just to be clear I am not saying the dealer has to open it up in front of me...but I'd at least like a picture of the internals (on the website is fine).
Just spoke with space tech labs and asked to see pictures of their internals of their tube linestages and they refused... well I will move on.

If equipment price is $500 and it looks inside like someone shovel up elements and had to step up on top plate to be able to close it, but sound Is like 15k I take it. But if this is opposite I’m not taking it.
 I believe that things like that are possible 😀

teo,

Did you get picked on by an engineer when you were a kid ....or made fun of by one as an adult?


That's some serious baggage you are carrying.
