Following Plastic Penguin's thread, lets start ranting about the brands we really dislike. Not for arguing with one another, just stating what and why you don't like any particular brand.
For me it'll be Klipsch to start off with (ear piercing treble, for me consistently through everything they make),
Beats by Dre ( they claim its music the way its meant to be heard....really??????) Horrible sounding things, way too bassy (its not even the good kinda bass for most of their line).....it also annoys me when I see people advertising them as necklaces on the tube.
Bose-I think its criminal for someone to charge 300 quid for a radio. The quality of materials they use for the price is shocking, my brother had a 302 and its vinyl coating peeled of after 3 months...only to reveal the kind of mdf I wouldn't use for my toilet cabinet. Sadly, they still sell millions of units a year to customers who don't know any better. You got me once, you ain't getting me twice Bose!
Thats just to get the ball rolling, will post more when I remember.
