Has anybody bought or heard a Chinese knock off amplifier?
yogiboy, funny, thanks Mashugana Ike mentioned here (spelled wrong sometimes) https://audiophilestyle.com/forums/topic/17130-the-death-of-the-home-stereo-system/page/6/ OP, sorry to wander from your discussion. |
I love the quality and sound of my Cayin, not a fake like OP is talking about, just to say, the capability of terrific products is there. ................................ Once, on the way to lunch with a client, I saw a sign on an audio store, asked my client "what kind of name is (my pronunciation) mass a goona? He laughed, pronounced it properly: mashugana It was ’Mashugana Ike’s’, a funny take off on Crazy Eddies. I had heard, knew what it meant, but had never seen Mashugana spelled before. https://www.google.com/search?q=mashugana&rlz=1C1SQJL_enUS881US881&oq=mashu&aqs=chrome.2... |
clearthinker 2 fake watch stories. Many years ago, at least 50, I found out about a coin shop and jeweler (not sidewalk stuff), fake Cartier Tank watch. The seller said, it looks like the original, but DO NOT take it to Cartier for repair. Big smile. Also many years ago, maybe 30, a client’s facilities manager came from Chicago to NYC. We going to lunch, he says let’s walk on that side of the street. He had seen a guy selling fake Rolex the day before. I said, noooo, sidewalk, on top of a cardboard box is not a good idea. He buys one, back to Chicago. Comes back about a month later, same thing, his had broken. Who would think it, but the guy was there. My friend picks one up, looks the guy straight in the eye, hands him his broken one, says that’s yours. Did I forget to mention my friend was HUGE. Seller smiles, off we go. OP, sorry again. |
