That German women's clothing chain is pretty similar. I'm sure there are others.  Here are a couple good articles about similar logos, it happens all the time:

...bit too similar..... I’d be asking my graphic designers for an explanation (or refund) for the rather uncanny resemblance........

In the spirit of being first to laugh and last to help.  Let me draw this most obvious of conclusions.  

 

 

 

Do you                      What I "C" on top?     

[Summit]

Some new product with Sonore maybe or just with JS.

[NOMBEDES]

I don't like it!  In fact, I hate it!

 

I don't know what it is, I have never seen it, heard it, tested it or done an ABX comparison.  

 

But it looks just like MQA.

CA is merging with Stereophile

I think I've figured it out.

 

Chris is importing an English brand of audio equipment to compete with a similarly named high-value brand in the U.S.

 

The new line will be called "Shite"

 

Am I close?

Again, you guys a too good. Thanks for the interest!

 

Burning the midnight oil to have everything in place for Tuesday. Wish I was just listening to Midnight Oil instead. Would be a lot simpler :~)

I think you're probably getting your ancestors mixed up here. Shite's more likely to be Irish, Scottish even, than English. Goes hand in hand with Feck.

It wouldn't be the first time I got mixed up about something, but my sources are as follows:

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/shite

 

Regardless, I'm still holding on to my prediction.

Embrace our new overlord, Master Computer Audiophile.

Hostage trades are becoming more common every day.  Given Cal's experience working through multiple channels I pray this will be successful.  Write letters and support peace seeking acts of diplomacy to bring our people home.

 

I do feel a little bad about haranguing Chris knowing more than likely his chair contained the entire design team from conception to final sign off on the project.  Concerns it raised were valid though

MQA Playback

Playback adoption continues with launches of Esoteric's N-01 Network Audio Player, the Oppo UDP-205 Blu-ray Disc Player, and Meridian's 251 Powered Zone Controller; announcements by both Sonore.....

Jusus said SonicOrbiter 2.6 is comming soon. 

 

‘’announcements by both Sonore* and Metrum Acoustics* of an MQA upgrade option across their product ranges’’

 

Not sure what this could mean as MQA is related to DAC and SW players. 

 

Unless Sonore has made a DAC ?

 

More interesting is that finally Roon will offer MQA

Sonore already made a DAC several years ago...

I know. Was this a John Swenson design ?

 

But DAC not listed here:

http://sonore.us/legacy.html

Must be very long time ago.

Yes, probably 5-7 years ago.

I hope the announcement is noteworthy for all of us in our search for bliss (grin).

[PeterSt]

OK, I am pre-streaming a bit already. No sound yet. That's no bad sound either.

[miguelito]
