There is a great place for this:

Extreme Snake Oil

Ok, I have for a few years now had Shunyata as the "King" of the snake oil sellers. They represent the worst of the worst. They have it all. Marketing material that is pure rubbish and techno nonsense by the bucket full. I always wish someone with deep pockets could sue them out of existence...

Well, this is a new one. I'll give you credit for that.

"Audio Grade" = "military grade", as in the most basic stuff ever concieved, barely meeting absolute minimum requirements. Markup approx. 3596% because three dozen layers of inbetween businesses in the testing and procurement process want to make a living too. Still works fine, because it's actually hard not to.

Rhodium is a much cooler name than gold, innit?
Elements with cool names are indubitably superior.
I mean: iron. lead. Those conjure up images of, like, Romans... wearing sandals - with socks. SPQR, baby!

Rhodium.
Beryllium.
Vanadium.
Tellurium.
Strontium.
Rhenium.
Neodymium.
Praseodymium.

TAKE MY MONEY!



I mean -- beryllium copper is a thing!

Edit: honorary mention for phosphor bronze. Old and new all wrapped into one!
