In Mr. Baird article I believe he failed to cite internet record shops such as GEMM (of which I am not affiliated)

I have used the site on a couple dozen occassions and found it very effective. They give record as well as dealer ratings. Makes life a lot easier than driving to the shop and not finding what you want.

Hopefully this does not sound like a "rant", because I'm not pissed off, but I really did not know where else to post this question.

I was on the Acoustic Sounds website this morning and saw this:

What's this all of a sudden interest in Klipsch, i see they do advertise a lot recently? Come on, plywood public address speakers. All of a sudden are in high end audio systems. And those who mock Legacy WHISPERS, which are a work of art, with sound to match. Plywood PA systems. Klipsch is another old name gone down to Best Buy status. StereoPhile takes it along for the ride. A giant cumbersome UGLY speaker that was developed for PA use decades ago. Is now a current fav.
