One of my other ideas is....
GR Research Victor
1. A person who has overcome or defeated an adversary; conqueror.
2. The one who won
3. A bit of a homage to the Victor Talking Machine Company and "His Master's Voice"
Do you think this is your most avant-garde design to date? If so, the GR Research Victor may be appropriate.
While your proposed aesthetic design is slightly modern, they could have a way-cool classy retro-classic vibe that reflects the style of the '40's - complete with a stamped, tarnished brass GR Research logo (in classic script, of course). These could be easily made to look like a killer find in an antique shop. They would remind you of your feisty grandfather (on your mother's side). You can swear you can smell pipe tobacco and old leather during late-night listening sessions. The glow of tubes romantically feature the period-true woodwork and advanced design. The sound transports you to a place and time where conveyance of musical nuance through a recording isn't just magical, but nearly unbelievable. The GR Research Victor can recreate this sense of marvel with today's modern recordings.
I've got a million more ideas, but you'll have to weed through such gems as "The Syphilis" and "Ultrafunkular Spectacular". I figure those don't have a snowball's chance in Hell. Awesome, nonetheless. But not commercially viable.
