I can tell you for certain, although I will not argue that some items may or may not be overpriced, it is definately NOT due to an over abundance of advertising. I know people in sales and marketing and the company compared to others inthe industry does not support those areas much. They pump the money back into research and development. They see themselves as a research company, not a speaker/headphones company. Until in recent years, the only advertising on TV anyone saw was a Herbie Hancock infomercial.

Word of mouth is always the best was to stimulate demand.
