i'm happy to see highend brands in midfi stores. more exposure means more interest. listening to some martin logans 8 years ago was what started me on my audio quest, and now i've planted plenty of money into this hobby. i hope there are more people out there like me, i want to see high end audio succeed.
btw, i bought some martin logan vantages at tweeter the other day, and i have to say that they treated me better than my local highend snobby store did. i'd rather go to tweeter, and get treated like a real customer, than be dismissed at a highend store because i'm only in my early 30s. oh, and they threw in a 10% discount, something my highend dealer never did for me... it was full price with them everytime.
