what many have realized about the Mercedes C63 AMG S E-Performance is that the car could have been a success if it was marketed correctly ...
the problem is that because such a car never existed before nobody knew how to market it ...
if the mental blocks of audiophiles can be fully understood a marketing strategy could perhaps be devised that worked around them ...
perhaps the Audiophile qualities of the system would have to be down-played to lower their guard so that they aren't so worried about being judged for having "bad taste" and instead the system could be sold on some other basis such as just being physically HUGE !
in fact that is the correct strategy. people with low IQs ( that is 99% of people ) are always impressed by things that are HUGE, this is why Trump always talks about how everything he does is "big" and "yuge" because he knows his rodent level IQs voters will appreciate it.
