Worst Name for A Piece of Equipment


There is a CD player with a good reputation that goes by the name fog. I don't think any audiophile would want a CD player to sound foggy. What other names do you know which are a contradiction in terms or are simply unpleasant sounding.

Pass, just too easy to write the review.

Nad, the stereo to buy when you wanna hava ball.

Gallo, I listen to what I drink....I love you maaaan.

Creek, where you'll be when you buy this stuff.

Beveridge, another hi fi brand that wants to be a drink, I see a pattern here.

MIT Terminator, screw higher learning, I just want to listen to "Dark Side Of The Moon" again.

Transparent, how do you find the stuff once you misplace it, must be even harder when listening to the Gallo speakers?

Monster X-terminator, worked at my house, I don't see many monsters any more.
In the 1970s, Infinity made a series of very inexpensive speakers with very large margins that were only carried in major hi-fi chains they were called POS-1, POS-2, etc. The letters were an acronym for "piece of s**t". Actually, it is hardly the worst name for a piece of gear, as it quite accurately described both the sound and build quality. Truth in advertising.
