Gimmicky Products - Time to STOP!!!

[Benedict_Arnold]

I really do wish all these manufactuers would stop producing gimmicky products. And that WHF would give them "the oxygen of publicity".

You know, turntables with a DSTOM sticker or headphones with a snakeskin PRINT (not even real snakeskin), speakers painted in a different colour and called a "special edition".

It's all just utter ball-cocks.

What like AA audiophile batteries for your amp remote?

Edit
Heard you should put them in the source remote first for biggest benefits.

Unless they claim the cosmetic changes yield extra performance I don't see the harm.

So you don’t want Pro-ject’s Yellow Submarine turntable?

Big kinder egg with selected hifi part inside? A cartridge, banana plug, turntable belt, bits of sorbothane... *crazy*
