Fine, continue to act like Lexicon swindled the public if it makes you feel better

This isn't a baby carriage that is chopping off fingertips, or pet food with a poisonous ingredient or cars where the accelerator peddle sticks. No one is being hurt here and nothing was stolen. No one is going to accidently buy the Lexicon and then realize they were robbed, like you audioholics dudes are pretending. The reason Lexicon is charging a premium is because a certain amount of time and cost went into the project with Oppo, the assembly is done in Indiana instead of Taiwan and the rebadging and firmware means that Lexicon can charge a premium to its clientele. They'll only buy the Lexicon for the reason I've cited three or four times now, which is they have other Lexicon products and want an all-Lexicon setup where the firmware is seamless with the other gear.

And no, I don't have a vested interest in this. I just think it's the height of ignorance and slander to accuse Lexicon of fraud. We all knew about the rebadge last summer, along with Ayre and Theta, which are also based on the Oppo and cost thousands more than the Lexicon.
