Klipsch speakers at one time were made in Hope, AR. I worked there
(City not factory) for a short time. The owner (Paul Kilipsch) drive
a Mercedes around town and so did his wife with personalized license
plates. The CEO drove a Rolls around town with the personalized
license plate Heresy.
The story told me, was that Paul loved the corner speaker and only
thought large horn speakers could do sound properly. When they
brought in the new CEO, he told Paul we need to make a book shelf
speaker. Paul looked at him and said it was heresy to make a
bookshelf speaker, so guess what the first line of book shelf
speakers was named?
Like I said this might be apocryphal or not.

you should post this comment on the Klipsch bb, where people pay a
fortune for vynal, macintosch,marantz, crown and other tube
components. 1960 turntables are worshipped. large horn speakers
are a life within themselves. they may send the tone of death down
the ether to you.
the macs of sound.
