Dave, skimed back through and don’t see any racist comments. Just silly people having fun. Can you show me what you see? Maybe one of the deleted post.
Some people just live to be faux-enraged.
Does Anyone Else Member the Golden Age of Audio Insults and Product Degradation?
My time in audio (and, video) goes way back. How far back? Does selling console stereos with ceramic cartridges mounted on record changers go back far enough? Things were very competitive back then. And, energetic and creative peddlers of consumer electronics didn't hold anything back.
Here's some examples from my memory. Maybe you can add some of your own?
Maggotbox: Magnavox
RCA Victim: RCA Victor
Kindlingwood: Kenwood
Soundshitty: Sansui
Altec Lansing "Voice of the Outhouse": "Voice of the Theater"
Karmon Hardon: Harmon Kardon
And, who can forget?: "No highs. No lows. It must be Bose."
Or: "You can knock a Yamaha. But, you can't Nakamichi."
Enjoy.

I have that record, complete with a bunch of autographs (Garlits, Eddie Hill etc.)! |
