What's the difference

So again, aside from my sarcastic remark about the ploy, is there any reason my thread should be deleted that I haven't addressed?

Yes. It is advertising for your own personal gain and/or your teams gain. On top of that PHD is not a vendor and neither are you.

I'm not gaining anything from posting a a third party review. So to have a review up of a product, you have to be a vendor on the site? You keep running around in circles and not making any sense.

You are on Team PHD, you posted a review to their product, you represent the company, PHD is not a vendor, neither are you, thread got deleted for advertising. That simple.

I do not benefit from it in the least, I posted it so others would gain knowledge which this site was about. I did not compare it to another brand, I did not offer anybody speakers, I did not tell anybody to buy the speakers.

Here is the definition of advertisement

ad·ver·tise·ment [ad-ver-tahyz-muh nt, ad-vur-tis-muh nt, -tiz-]

noun

a paid announcement, as of goods for sale, in newspapers or magazines, on radio or television, etc.

Here is the definition since you picked one that you felt proved your motive.

A notice or announcement in a public medium promoting a product, service, or event or publicizing a job vacancy.

You promoted a product. That simple. Thread locked.

The ending result is the thread was deleted. I concur with it's deletion based on what I read as did other members that reported it. Debating about the actions taken will not alter the actions that were taken in this case.
