No just increase the prices because the 1st. april versions where made only for the audiophiles who regard the prices to low for the offered quality and so this day only good stuff with braggable prices will be sold to the people who deem it a factor of importance that they can brag about the price they had to pay for this examplery piece of top technique
Why not...
1) A good clock radio. No joke, *nobody* makes a good, simple, *reliable* clock radio with an aux in. 2-3" fabric drivers. Called the "Oh" for $99-149, sold.
Sell cables made with "Schittonium". Call 'em "The Runs" because they are good for long or short ones and enable the music to squirt through with authority.
If you meant me, no. I do not drink nor do I take any thing else. I am, to be honest, quite boring. I am the only one in my family that is this way. I am adopted and both my father and maternal grand father were alcoholics and so I decided very young not to risk it all by trying it even once.
Here's a thought experiment: what could you do for the ultimate gag on April Fool's day?
On April 1 Schiit are going to announce that they dropping the silver finish on all their products and that all future products will come in a black metal finish only,
making the existing silver finish products collectors items.
Reminds me of the tale of the raging abusive alcoholic dad with two sons. One child grew up to be a teetotaler, the other fell into the bottle. When asked why they turned out that way, both replied - "With a father like mine, what did you expect?"
Bit OT, admittedly; but hopefully thought-provoking.
Back O(n)T, you bet I'll log onto Schiit.com tomorrow a.m. just for grins...

Offer more lies in the form of use less "upgrades". Might I suggest a 50 amp PS shaped like a toadstool and called the Schitt Wall Wart?

Offer a "Pre-Listening Air Enhancer" called, "Schitt PooGas®™. It makes the atmosphere more transparent (no, not a sex changed parent), more transientdentalified, deblurrified, and any thing else the ad copy folks can make up.......
If Schiit wanted to sell more Schiit to less people, then all they need do is lie. A lot. FrAudiophiles will strain at a bit and swallow a lie whole.
Next, they need to raise the price of entry so that there would be no entry level. Make it excruciatingly exclusive so that only the Elite Infuriati are able to purchase.

More lies. Lies not only sell product, but increase profits! Make outrageous claims of more every thing. More "sound stage"! More "air"! More "coherence"! More transients (not the smelly kind)!. More (my fave!) "Musicalifragellisticexpealidociousness™". More Schitt selling and that means More Moolah!
New ad campaigns with new claims of how with Schitt you squeeze out every ounce of insert-flowery-madeup-term-here.

And for MQA fans, a special ointment called "Schitt Smear" that takes care of any bit smearing. It also can be used to treat fine leather and when used in conjunction with "Schitt Payper" ™ (patent pending) will both salve and buff the ego of any butthurt frAudiophile.
Etc.
