I wonder why someone would put an apple in every amp photo. What is the point there?
Large brass devices on top of power amps ?
Browsing through photo gallery of several systems I have seen several amps where a large brass disc are placed on top of the amp.
I would really like to know what are the results adding these brass devices.

Hi 6550c I believe the seller who puts an apple in every photo with the equipment they are selling is trying to show the scale and size of the item. I check a collectible website often and I find that with a new statue they always include a picture of it with an apple for reference. The last picture has an apple with the Luke Skywalker statue. http://www.sideshowtoy.com/?page_id=4489&sku=3000131&ref=feature_3000131 I've seen audiophiles use cans of soda to illustrate how big a port on a sub is or the size of a capacitor in an amp. Quite funny sometimes what people do. |
Jed, putting something in a photo is a common way to show scale in a photograph. for example, I may intentionally include a bit of properly lit white so I can adjust color better. In photographing small objects (macro) I may include a ruler or sometimes a coin. In landscape photography of the 'here I am' variety...not necessarily for art, but simply for the vacation album, including something of known size always helps people relate to the photograph. Sure, Everybody knows how large a soda can is. Good idea, no? |
