Talk:Denon

message: Regarding the comment in the article: For many years is was a brand name of Nippon-Columbia, the Japanese arm of Columbia Records.
I don't believe there has been a relationship between Nippon-Columbia and Columbia Records since the outbreak of WWII in 1941. Though Nippon-Columbia retained the name, the war ended any other relationship between the companies. The statement above seems to imply Nippon-Columbia is a subsidiary or division of Columbia Records. I do not believe this is the case. I think the author might want to substantiate that.

replies: text: I don't know any of the history surrounding this.. but it looks like Denon is owned by D&M Holdings, which is owned by RHJ International .  RHJI shows that it also owns Columbia Music Entertainment, Inc. (Columbia Japan) .  I think that RHJI is a Japanese branch of Ripplewood Holdings, --ChrisRuvolo (t) 20:00, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

message: The $500 cable is a scam. This article is written as if this is a proper company, not a fraudulent gang of audio snake-oil salesmen. See http://gadgets.boingboing.net/2008/06/22/amazon-reader-review.html for example.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.68.228.211 (talk) 00:41, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

message: What does this mean? Was Denon the first to introduce those players, or was it the leader in sales? If it is a claim to technological superiority in those devices, then such a statement will need some authoritative affirmation of such a claim. An advertising claim will fail the NPOV standard.
If it was first to establish a 'consumer CD player', then what distinguishes such a player from a 'commercial model'? Ease of use? That would be subjective. A price cut? Also subjective. 
And for how long? Many firms were entering the business.Pbrower2a (talk) 19:33, 19 August 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: Despite the above IP-user not giving a reason, I agree that merging the articles would unbalance the Denon article. Since the merge has been proposed since October 2014 with only these comments, I've removed the merge tags, without prejudice any other editor proposing it again.
