Technology and Quality of The Product
Overall, the quality of the product is inferior. For example, when bench tested by a member of the public, the Denmark Audio system was proven to be of very low quality, and was described as sounding like a "hornet's nest". Another common complaint is that when a buyer tries to hook up the home theatre system to a high definition television set, they find it cannot be done. The claim of HD compatibility made for the white van system is just another element of the scam.
Systems (typically amplifiers with speakers, sold as sets) with only two or three inputs and a lack of video inputs, with only analogue L/R/6ch RCA jacks, are common in this scheme.

“The courage of a soldier is found to be the cheapest and most common quality of human nature.”
—Edward Gibbon (1737–1794)
“The site of the true bottomless financial pit is the toy store. It’s amazing how much a few pieces of plastic and paper will sell for if the purchasers are parents or grandparent, especially when the manufacturers claim their product improves a child’s intellectual or physical development.”
