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.

Frankly, if I don't trust their marketing, then I don't trust the company. 

Ha! That includes most cable companies, and might as well lump in all the other marketing BS we get bombarded with in the media.

This is a very simple fact;

All marketing is hype. All of it. Don't care what you're selling.

If I made purchases based on a company’s marketing, I would never purchase anything.

So if a company makes 4 levels of the same product, even if they don't explicitly state it, they are inferring that there is an improvement in sonics at each higher level.  Who knows if if is 5, 7.5, 10 or 15%.  I don't take the claim of an 15% improvement as evidence this is a bad or dishonest company. Just my take.
