You know when you are dealing with a BS company....


...when you read statements like this:

"You can expect a 15% to 20% improvement in sound for each level as you move up the line. The improvements are in soundstage, resolution, realism, musical presentation, impact, etc."

Me: yeah, the humidity in my room changed from 44 to 45% yesterday, and I immidiately noticed that the realism dropped by 3.4%, yet the musical presentation actually WENT UP by 8.3%. I was able to compensate by turning the lights on in the kitchen and changed my socks. Puh, that was close.

Then you should have picked a company that goes way beyond the normal hype like Synergistic Research.

You're making an example out of a company ad that is really mild in comparison to many others. Sure is a lot of hub bub over something so inconsequential to anyone's life.

I like my Morrow XLRs.  I hate the spamming I get from Morrow's (likely a millennial run) ad department.  That being said have you ever had to sell a product to the general public lately?  I swear people are getting stuupiderr and stupidere.

Not all, but some fit Ken's definition of "audiophile." I'm not naming anyone, but I've met a lot of audiophiles who truly do believe the most darnedestly stupid things about audio equipment.

It doesn't matter. The concept is the same: higher prices = better fidelity = audio nirvana.

"It was as much a BS post as the marketing you are whining about.

You have given them more marketing awareness than any ad copy they could write.

Nice work!"

 

"It doesn’t matter. The concept is the same: higher prices = better fidelity = audio nirvana."

I agree. My point is there are far more ludicrous claims that would have been a much better example.
