Hales Revelation 3:Oldie but is it still a Goodie?


I have ocassionally seen a few ads on the 'GON for this speaker..The Hales company is out of business, but the speaker seems to have developed a cult following. So,I need opinion from owners,etc as to how this speaker, the Hales Revelation 3 competes against recent hi-end speakers in the $2200-2500 price range. Also,would it be a mistake to buy a speaker whose company is defunct?? What about service and parts??

I choose Hales over these,

Paradigm
B&W
Linn
PSB
Magnepan
Martin Logan
Monitor
Ruark

...and it was a no-brainer. If you decide to buy, you may want to find a pair with the four threaded inserts for spikes, instead of the ones that simply rest on three spikes. I have owned mine for over four years and still really enjoy them, but you may want to try to get feedback from people who choose other speakers over the Revelation Threes.
