wpines Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 There was an advetisement for speakers many moons ago that I've been trying to remember. I always got a kick out of that ad and since I've gotten my Heresy II's, I think of it often. It was a young guy who had obviously just got out of work sitting in an easy chair in front of 2 speakers and his hair and his tie were blowing backwards as if from the sound from the speakers. Whose ad was it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 It's my recollection that it was an ad for Maxell recording tape. EDIT at 2011 EST: My recollection was correct. See http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/16/maxell-brings-back-the-blown-away-guy/ which was produced by googling "Blown Away ad" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wpines Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 Once you kind people pointed me in the right direction, to Maxell, I emailed them requesting a "blown away" poster and it arrived less than a week later. Thanks !!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeRiff Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I think pretty much everyone on this forum now owns the Maxell poster. Some have also spent $150 on a frame for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
