I've bought quite a few hyped products here from reading posts. all were not good.
recently I've been seeing some products in the PC Audio and Speaker category which are being hyped to hell.
I put my tin foil hat on (yes real tin, not aluminum), are some here paid actors or do actually believe the hype?
not trying to troll, but I've read about movements like this that I am stating. particularly in political circles. what winds up is everyone starts to fight each other, sound familiar?
