okay.  so they call to mind the grado ps1000, and cost $1000.
that's all i can tell at the moment.
you know... enough to pique the curiosity... 

 

[TheWuss]

also can't help but mention that the name is a dreadful choice.
not sure why some of their english speaking friends didn't alert them...
 
just say it out loud a few times.  "titanus"  you'll get it...

I spoke it out loud a few times yet I still can't figure it out

 

[Henmyr]

It MUST be a joke name. They can't possibly call it that

No no no, it's pronounced TIE-TAN-USS.

You're right...that's how I would pronounce it.
 
But it's not about how it sounds. It's about how it looks, if you catch my drift...

 

[TheWuss]

yeah.  it is probably pronounced similar to "tie tan us" or "tighten us".
but, still too close for comfort for me.  hahahaha.

A whole new meaning to tits and ass eh? NERD STYLE

 

[TheWuss]

you guys aren't as filthy minded as i am. 

i saw the name, was trying to derive a pronunciation, and the most likely is "tie tan us".  but, another possible pronunciation was "tie tain us."
the first two syllables pronounced similar to those in "titanium".  
"tie tain us".  now, say that a few times.   

i know, the moderators won't be diggin' this thread too much, so i edited this a little bit... 

 

[happyxix]

True. First thing I thought was
 

 

 

[TheWuss]

okay.  so, you just brought power rangers into this.
so, did the thread just get rescued or further derailed?
