Dealers hijacking the discussions

Then why not the rest of us advertise ourselves too ?  That would be entertaining. Hey, I want to take the opportunity to advance my business too.

I assume you can advertise your wares here but if it is not audio related you may not get much feedback.

There would be a lot of feedback and a lot of discussion disruption.

My name is Shawn and I'm a shill for Focal and Pass. Deal with it. 

The only thing that really grinds my gears is when fools hocking their wares make the boldest claims with absolute zero evidence to substantiate their claims. All they're really selling is just a bunch of discombobulated pseudo-jargon and lies. Maybe it's not obvious to the crowd here, but 2 channel audio isn't a thriving, growing hobby. Most people do think Blose is a benchmark of quality. Nobody I know had even heard of Focal until I told them. I hardly have a journey ended rig, but almost everyone I've dropped in the listening throne are blown away. They truly had no idea that a stereo could sound like that. Most people think this is already a hobby of snake oil and those hocking their snake oil are doing this hobby no favors whatsoever. That's why I take nonsensical claims to task when I find them. 
As for the dealers, these folks are preaching to the choir. We're already a crowd motivated to explore our options. I think these people should be busting hump to get fresh meat in the showroom.
