Yes, everyone is shady.
And the listening is a bet.
You guys got to be careful with the "hard at work," "come to life," and so forth stuff.
Look what Sansui published
40 years ago. They have some nice fancy jargon in this pamphlet.
Same schiit...
Welcome to the revolutionary Omni-Dynamic era
I just think it's so unfair to not give something a chance before listening to it.
It makes me wonder why the masses let the true shady stuff slide and follow hype trains but are so closed-minded to new stuff. Like, people will allow big bs by big companies slide, but will judge something new before they even get to hear it.
Yes, I agree, don't believe marketing bs because there are people who get paid to make that look very official and convincing. But come on, I think this is completely out of line. I can say that words are words, and that there are quite a lot of them with little to no meaning being used in marketing in the audiophile space.
@protoss don't take my comments personally, I know you are a great guy, but please know that words have weight. Making a product come to life isn't cheap, especially for independent and small companies like Camerton. Oleh Lizohub's driver design have been proved to be exceptional in the speaker field, and this is something that many people that listened to the Binom-1 have said, so I think there is every reason to believe that the Binom-ER maintains those high standards. The MSRP is high, and people are yet to determine whether the performance meets the standards present at that price range.
Of course, I myself am not going to call these headphones great before getting a chance to listen to them. Equally so, I am not going to call them crap.
My approach is to have no expectations and let the product speak for itself. I could care less about the marketing and what others say. I consider myself someone who is qualified to make the judgement by himself, so that's exactly what I do. Sometimes I find myself going against the grain, and people don't like that, but at the end of the day, what's the most important to me is that I express my honest opinion without thinking what anyone else is going to say about it.
I myself have quite a few questions about the Binom-ER and I hope to have a chance to speak with Oleh to get the answers, but other than that, I am not going to jump to any conclusions.
Once again, please don't take my comment personally, because I have nothing against you.
