The thrusting verbosity of these product names is hilarious...we could have some fun with this!

My favourite is the Kharma Exquisite Extreme Grand Limited 25. It's not just exquisite, not just extreme and not just grand, but all three. Massively thrusting, the 12" penis of speakers. Just right to audition with Statement.

    .........   if my 12" looked as misshapen as those I'd be high stepping down to the STD clinic PDQ,  but I guess if the Statement styling floats your boat  ........

I wonder what hifi system you could compile of components with the worst possible names?

 

Kharma Exquisite Extreme Grand Limited 25 would certainly work for the speakers.  I vote for "DAVE" for the front end.  Now we just need pre and power amps...

The AN-E/SPe HE could be used as speakers as well.

I'm currently reading Grayson Perry's "Playing to the Gallery". Is this thread just elaborate performance art?

Nothing wrong with Dave as a person's name.  I know lots of Daves, I like the name.

 

Just not as a product name.  I mean, what if Porsche was to launch a car called the Cynthia Turbo?  She might go like the clappers but that's probably not the image they would aim for.

Are you trying to be provocative ?

What happened to MM's reply saying he was only kidding and is no longer on the upgrade merry go round?

Posted on: 26 June 2015 by Basel Boy
Indeed. That's what prompted my comment. Also one of Adam's has gone AWOL.

Maybe deleted by the poster within the editing window?

I've left well alone.

Mango must be a dealers worst nightmare (or largest income)

The only more effective way to stifle a thread would be to move it to the Linn Forum 

Posted on: 26 June 2015 by joerand

Linn has a forum

 

I'm always amazed at the new things I learn here. Googling it now.
