No, I think the idea was to promote the High End to consumers, like the Milk Board or the California Raisin producers. Anyway, it didn't work.

You do not.
Based on what you posted.
Did you really read my post, or did you console yourself with the delusion that you had read my post??????
Do you have a clue about the distinction between fungible and non-fungible products, which was my entire point?????
Milk is fungible.
Hi-Fi is not.
Please stop posting before reading and thinking.

JM-
long-winded? These hi-fi companies has a duty to tour these audio shows displaying their wares for us consumers- simple.
The loss or failure of retail outlets is one reason why loudspeaker salesmen are having such a tough time. Even if every hifi manufacturer displayed at every trade show regularly, that would not be enough to generate widespread public interest and sales.Without retail outlets the general public cannot hear, touch, and see. Loudspeaker hifi cannot be expected to succeed this way. Besides, loudspeaker hifi is not the "must have" sort of thing that it once was. When it comes to music, it's now all about "small and portable" rather than "statuesque and majestic".
Modern headphone hifi is doing pretty well nowadays, in large part because of size and space considerations.

Yeah, I read it, and I know what fungible means. I also know you went to law school, and it made you more than a touch pompous.
Fungible schmungible, marketing is marketing. Think tangible/intangible instead. Audio gear is a tangible product.
