Yes, it is my opinion. So is Heil's self-proclaimed expert status. I know 
of no one in the world of pro audio who shares that opinion. As to 
marketing -- his products are cheaply made and overpriced, but he's 
convinced hams that they're wonderful. That's marketing. 

On the other hand, I've been honored by being named a Fellow of the Audio 
Engineering Society, so my opinion may count for something. Or maybe not.
