Free $3K preamp to lucky listener who names it



We at Backert Labs have just introduced our new preamp, which is sonically very close to our $7,500 unit at less than half the price ($2,995 to be exact).

It doesn't have a name yet, so we're having a contest: a lucky listener who suggests the name that we decide to use will win one.

If we don't use any of the names suggested, there will still be a winner, selected at random from all entries. If the name we select was submitted by more than one entry, we'll draw the winner at random from those entries.

Our press release is handy if you'd like some info before submitting your name idea.

Enter here.

Good luck!

Yep agree that Rhumba is way far from winning name. It's very common on the first place. Definitely ain't worth the product price for market.
I entered Arpeggio, but realized that not too many casual listeners know what it means. I also doubt that BackertLabs personnel knows this musical term.
The other choice of mine was Etude and still wonder how many folks know this term in this community.
Third choice I don't remember, but surely know that Rhumba is known to much more people than Arpeggio and Etude combined.
My next model names nominations will be based on modern dances:

1. "Break"
2. "Techno"
3. "House"

Keeping same pattern is important.
Hey will there be any next model with contest?

I think the theme should be changed tho from Latin dance to money such as

TR -- Tax Refund
JGP -- Just Got Paid
HI -- High Interest
COH -- Cash On Hand
WOL -- Went Over Limit
DTMW -- Don't Tell My Wife
MPL -- My Personal Loan
SMC -- Sold My Car
MSM -- Made Some Money
GR -- Got Raise
CA -- Can't Afford
