>>So, Jimbo, audio tweak marketeers are now in the same class as snake oil cancer cures?!<<Let's be careful here. I'm not talking about ALL audio tweak marketeers, only some of them.
Seriously, there is no moral equivalence, since instead of dying in misery in some roach-infested Mexican clinic, your customers sit happily in their million-dollar homes humming along to their favorite tunes on their "improved" $100K steros. I readily admit--even assert--that you might even be providing real value by selling them something they really want: the opportunity to part with their money and feel good about it. So--again--there's no moral equivalence.
In terms of tactics, however, the equivalence seems quite obvious to me, and that is what I wrote in my post.
