Needless stereotyping?

In MF's review of the VTL amp, he mentions not tightening individual screws fully until all are seated. He says:
"A hint: Don't fully tighten any screw until they're all screwed in a bit (footnote 3). Footnote 3: I learned that working on cars, but how many audiophiles have done that? How many Jews, for that matter? I'm probably one of six Jews outside Tel Aviv who's done his own car work and probably one of fewer audiophiles... "

Stop me if you've heard this one: Back in the early 1990s, just after the fall of the Soviet Union, I debated professor of music engineering and magazine columnist Ken Pohlmann on a talk show on the CBS radio network. The subject was analog sound vs digital sound, but I guess when Pohlmann felt I was getting the upper hand, he felt he needed to play the tube card. Derisively, he said, "I bet you're one of those tube guys, too, aren't you?" Before I could open my mouth, he continued: "You know, the Soviet Union's military gear, including the MIG fighters, ran on tube electronics, and look what happened to them!"

Forums

I was just at the Epos web site www.epos-acoustics.com and saw this new line of loudspeaker. Accept for some changes in power handling (on the m16i) and the m22i being 2 1/2-way, as opposed to the m22 being 3-way, the only big change appears to be cosmetic.

Other than what Epos has posted on their site I couldn't locate any other info. Is anyone familiar with this new line?
