Creator rates speakers: product vs marketingfrom @orenmeetsworld

Transcript

Tier you buying the product or it's marketing? Home audio. Sonos, you're buying the dream that they fix their product one day. Good tech, good ideas. I've spent years where it works 50% of the time. The Marshall Acton or Stan Moore, you are buying the rank. Great facade, average fidelity. Tier, I am rather partial to the ID. This is rank and roll cosplay for your bookshelf. It is for the Machine Gun Kelly stands. Bang and Ollison, you are buying the product and the brand. I used to live with a B and O sales rep, and our house sounded crispy, but these are expensive while sculptural and sonically serious. Third speaker, a third furniture piece, a third flex. Bose buying the rank. Comfortable, overpriced, sounds fine. The designs try, but inspired nothing. The Microsoft tier of home audio. The nine Musso are buying tier product. Heavy layered excellent engineering. Sounds as good as it looks, but the rule is you have to own a much worse speaker system first no you good appreciate it. Devialet Phantom, you are buying the rank. Looks like a jet engine and blast like one. Deep best, wild price, but still a party trick more than a listening tool. Bowers and Wilkins Zeppelin, you are buying the rank, but man is this close. I own this in my twenties and loved it. Elegant balanced and surprisingly punchy, but if you try and really turn it up it falls short. When they say nuclear football, this is what I picture. Otis speakers, you worse buying the product. Anyone that uses lutherie in their marketing has my approval. Worse, you are buying the products. Pro modern design, real wood cabinets, great analog sound. Tell me why I'm brutally wrong in the comments, but if you're a soundbar type, this is a discussion for the adults, and you're not welcome.
