Biggest audio hoaxes
So many great responses! Loving this! I hear folks here about "one persons hoax is another person's tweak," with the CD pen being a good example. But this one seems, so to speak, a genuine hoax: "The Lexicon BD30 CD player that had Oppo BDP-83 guts, including the chassis!"And @philbarone5 does a great job of pointing out the exact marketing/advertising machine that modern life has perfected "lots of people in the business do all kinds of gimmicky type things and back it with heavy advertising and musicians that need press so they endorse it then lots of inexperienced kids and players believe the hype and buy into it then post on forums about how great it is then the business takes off but usually eventually it dies off but in the meantime they make a lot of money." Take a gimmick, hype it to rubes, take the money, and run. For old timers, this is the PT Barnum "sucker born every minute" thing; for younger timers, it's the monorail episode. |
