What about a product can irritate you?




What about a product can irritate you, other than the sound?

I thought of this today while attemting to install a new pair of cables. The cables came out of the package in the shape of a Slinky and no amount of bending them, shaping them, stretching them or otherwise trying to reshape them would do any good... they are permanently shaped like a big telephone cord.

I find cables that aren't installation-friendly to be incredibly irritating.

Do you have a pet peeve?

Gregm, that makes sense for solid state. What about the tube equipment like the First Sound preamps, and Modwright modified CD/Universal players? For these, the power switch on the back doesn't make sense for the "leave it on 24/7" theory.

Tvad: I'm with you. Inversely, switches placed in the front can be left "on" 24/7 too. Cheers
