Nicely said Tim. Expose more people to what hi-end can do--most people have no idea. I was flying the other day on American and was very pleased to see that the airline magazine had a 4 page section on hi-end audio. It showed and discussed products from B&W, Dynaudio, Classe, Jeff Rowland, Meridian, SME, and others. The products were top of the line, B&W 801 signature, Dynaudio Evidence as examples. It was great to see that it's at least being mentioned to the general population. I think the market has shrunk largely due to the past "snobbery" approach from hi-end stores and the lack of reaching out to find new clients that might not have previously experienced hi-end reproduction.
Say it ain't so...
Went into a Best Buy today and came across a section called "Magnolia". It was a "Home Theater" department. They had Definitive Technology, Martin Logan, Boston Acoustics, REL, Denon, and a few other brands generally associated with HiFi Buys/Tweeter or better audio stores.
How about that...
