All in all, it seems as if Klipsch is having a moment.  Actually, if I'm reading the tea leaves correctly, the Klipsch moment is connected to a couple of other moments: 1) the growing (though still niche) popularity of low power SET amps, and 2) growing popularity (though still niche) of highly efficient speakers.  The two are related of course, and the Klipsch Heritage line is well positioned to benefit because of its lineup of uber efficient transducers.  But Klipsch is not merely resting on its laurels by schlepping their old designs and chanting odes to St. Paul.  They are tweaking and refining their old models with new drivers, crossovers (internal as well as external) and even have a new speaker in collaboration with a newcomer, the Klipsch Ojas 2-way speaker reviewed in Stereophile this months.  Also note the interview of Roy Delgado, Klipsch's head designer.  (Someone in the Klipsch marketing department must be wide awake too!)  Good for them and good for the hobby.
