Here are some examples of brands' names that sound rather similar to the sound of their equipment.

Hard/Cold/Analytical: Focal, Kef, Bowers & Wilkins, Klipsh, JBL, Wilson, Magico, Tannoy, Splendor, Yamaha, Altec, KLH, Triangle, Alta,Totem, Monitor Audio, Luxman, Krell, Schiit,

I am not sure how to quote a msg to reply, 

re Perhaps, the OP had too much rum in his eggnog.>> I realize that this theory is bit strange but still... maybe people with thinner names like thinner music... you will agree that the both the words and the sounds od Focal and Klipsh sound colder than Harbeth and Sonus Faber... often strange things happen....

 

re But what does a world-destroying robot need with diapers?>> did not catch that, please explain.

re Hearing and translating >> still I think we can all agree that Focal and Klipsh sounds colder than Harbeth and Sonus Faber.

 

OP.

That's quite the blanket statement. 

You're not only painting with broad strokes, you're using a industrial push broom to do it.

Kent Engineering Foundry….. Obviously you haven’t heard anything they built under Raymond C.

Eggnog tastes just like it sounds….nasty…
