A little of the topic, but I found Jadis and Avantgarde rather amusing names for manufacturers who both make horn speakers. Both names/words are french but Jadis crudely translates "of old, Once" and avantgarde means essentially "ultra modern, at the forefront".
Best and Worst Product Names
I was reading a current post regarding power cords and it struck me that some of the product names were rather silly sounding. Am I really supposed to take seriously a product named "Voodoo Mana"? Granted, there is a certain cleverness to naming a cable, the EEL, but what's up with the BIRTH? Maybe manufacturers, like rock groups, are running out of good names? What are the best, or worst product names you've come across?
My vote for best name goes to Martin-Logan for calling the replacement to the Quest the Request. Also kudos to AHT for their Non-Signature Phono Stage. Thumbs down the Jeff Rowland for using the same name (Coherence) for two different products. Very confusing.
