Whatever Happened to Snell?

I had a number of Snell speakers, Type E, Type K come to mind. I really loved the old Snell sound in the '80s. They played with great impact and the mids and highs were awesome as I recall. I used to blow speakers all the time in my youth but could never hurt a Snell. I know Snell is still around, what do people think of the "new" Snell? I looked at the website and it looks like HT is the emphasis now? I guess I just want to see what everyone thinks, have they sold out or is their stuff still good.... I'd check myself except I can't find a dealer anywhere who carries the stuff.

Both Snell AND Boston are famous for controling product quality via strict manufacturing engineering practices.
The question isn't whether Boston can maintain Snell's quality, it's whether they choose to meet the higher price points and pay attention to proper voicing (not their forte).
