Have you changed your mind about a brand? Was it you, or them?


I've changed my mind about many things.  Beer for instance.  Now I can really only drink IPAs and dark beers. Lagers?  Phooey.  This is very different than what I drank in my 20s though. 

Same for audio gear. 

So let me ask all of you, are there brands or equipment you've changed your mind about, for better or worse?  And if so, why?  It doesn't have to be a brand, it can be a TYPE or technology.

For instance, I used to love Ti and Be tweeters.  Now usually can't listen to them.

What about you?

Is it too late to weigh in? This thread being 3 days silent.

see Erik, you start a thread with the best of intentions and it goes off the side rails...so let’s get back to beers... went on a 2 year Belgian/monk (thinking there must be a Thelonius connection) only to tire of the heaviness of Chimay although Duvel still holds its own.  recently exploring  the Sam Smith offerings.

after my Infinity Studio Reference Monitors, I thought the emit tweeters were overhyped and gave up on the brand. No matter what room or associated equipment, I couldn’t get satisfying sound.  Then last year spent some time with Bill of Miller Sound listening to a mid level Inifinty and couldn’t believe my ears.
awakened me to the possibility of hidden gold in used Infinity’s available “for a song”.
BTW, I agree with previous poster reg LG fridge, constant noises it makes ruins my audio sessions. Barely 14 months and already had a breakdown.
