This is like trying to sum up James Joyce's "Ulysses" in 12 words.

I got a History degree in "American Civilization." I read about 1,200 books about the post-WWII goings-on, and, at least 200 about the JFK assassination.

So, I am sensitive to Conspiracy Theories.

The Conspiracy Theory I have heard mention of, about the Masimo thingy, is, Masimo did not buy any of those audio companies because they wanted them, but rather to own Marantz's patented home-network HEOS software, which Masimo supposedly believed that Apple's heart-monitor Watch app infringed upon the patents of.

TALK ran into the Billions. ???

Reality? Stick a $20 bill into a stripper's G-String, and ask her what she thinks.

And which, in any event, Masimo believed it needed for its own medical-devices core business.

Zo, until we see the Closing Book, we do not know which patents went where.

AFAIK, the audio brands are just disposable window dressing.

Especially now, when everything costs more, and people are husbanding their cash to buy canned goods!!!!

Gib mir ein Break!
