20% ouch. Seems a bit harsh. I'd jump in before 50%. TADs I assume don't devalue like that.
At the end of the day it's about what they can do. And they do it well. |

I agree 100% ..............Sony would probably be much more concerned say about their PS3 sales or developing a PS4 then a niche product like the SS AR-1's |

For a company trying to turn a profit and turn itself around, I can't see why they would try to re-invent a new brand when what they seem to want is renewed respect and market leadership. Perhaps products like this are a start in changing peoples' perception of Sony.

I agree completely with the marketing comments. I love the speaker too and
it has some very interesting background with respect to the wood and how it only comes from trees from certain area to be particular stiff because of the temperature swings, but if you have the same brand showing this: and then this: with response up to 50KHz for less than a hundred, then it gives a false sense of trust. Which one represents the brand more?
