MIT music interface technologies (Snake Oil)?

[phoenixdogfan]

Hi, was going to post a request to measure MIT cables and found this thread. I was also a non believer of MIT cables until I tried them in my system, and despite their high cost, I eventually upgraded all my cables to MIT. Has there been any measurements done on ASR on them? Would love to see how they change the signals passing through them since I do hear a difference. Thank you!

Why don't you send them in to Amir for testing?

I think that if you use anything other than MIT with Spectral gear, it voids your warranty. Supposedly, the network within the cable prevents high frequency oscillation. Same principle employed by Matthew Polk when he made his audio cables.

Are you suggesting that two wrongs can in fact make a right?

How have you validated that the difference was real? What were the controls and how did you implement them?

There are plenty of controls on the "articulation console."

I don't think they ever trademarked MIT so Musical Interface Technologies can go on as the farce that they are.

Apples to oranges… totally different categories.

Try it with a litigious company. Start a company and name it Disney Audio and see what happens.

Orchard Audio has to stop naming its amplifier Bosc (after a cultivar of pear) because Bosch contacted them via their lawyers.

As far as Disney goes, that ship sailed long ago… they’ve had music products forever (see what they’ve copyrighted on https://tmsearch.uspto.gov/search/search-results).

And because they’re in the same product category with only a one-letter difference, Orchard Audio wouldn’t have won a trademark name battle with Bosch anyway.

Yep, I learned my lesson...

Ouch! I feel your pain - I was in advertising and marketing for years, and always had to do extensive trademark searches when branding products in order to avoid legal unpleasantness
