| RIP: Paul W. Klipsch I sold Klipsch speakers from 1980 to 1986. Always liked the original "Hersey" speaker, especially the excellent cabinet workmanship. My best memory of Klipsch speakers was wandering into a dealership in Berkeley, California who had his showroom in... | |

| Opinions on old B&W's I had a pair of B&W Matrix 3's Series 2 for about 10years. I liked them a great deal, but regreted not spending the extra money for the 802's which has a better midramge driver and tweeter. The series 3 of this model line was supposedly the be... | |
