Here are some examples of brands' names that sound rather similar to the sound of their equipment.

Hard/Cold/Analytical: Focal, Kef, Bowers & Wilkins, Klipsh, JBL, Wilson, Magico, Tannoy, Splendor, Yamaha, Altec, KLH, Triangle, Alta,Totem, Monitor Audio, Luxman, Krell, Schiit,

Neutral: Tannoy, Naim, Accuphase, Hegel, Pass Labs, Marantz, Rotel

Soft/Warm/Musical: Sonus Faber, Harbeth, Dynaudio, Elac, Vienna Acoustics,  Whaferdale, Audio Note, Gershman, NAD, Audiolab, SucGen, McIntosh, Denon.

Maybe, unconsciously, the founders created the brand names to send like his sound....

I agree with the first post. To me analytical is accurate, but what do I know?🙃

But what does a world-destroying robot need with diapers?

Klaatu barada nikto.

 

Is Klaatu a robot like me?

Elac -- He doesn't laaak it!

Kenwood -- Clint Eastwood's accountant brother.

Marantz -- I want less of 'em, not mare of 'em, in my pants.

SOTA -- because the gear sounds watery and fizzy.

Okay, I'll stop now...
