Why so little discussion about Snell ?


I just picked up some Snell K.5mkII for my HT setup. I made the decision based on it's ability to do music. In short I really like them and find them simular to my ProAcs in many respects. They should work great for HT (room still under construction). The magazines give them high marks but few dealers seem to do well with them and they are rarely discussed in the forums. Do they just have bad marketing?

I've been wondering about that myself. The present dealer network is very limited compared to what it once was. I wanted to check out their new line-up but there were no dealers within a reasonable driving distance from my home. I wonder why so many dealers abandoned ship? Conjecture on my part, but it might have some thing to do w/the take-over of Snell from (Boston Acoustics, I believe)? I have a pr. of their JIV's in beautiful walnut veneer finish. Wonderful spks. which will last nearly forever. Yes, they need to do better marketing and set-up a better dealer network.
Also own a pair of walnut E-III's which sound absolutely superb w/my Kora "Explorer Si-90" int. amp. (Retubed w/Telefunken's) Wonderful speakers! Wonderful Company which offers such great customer support. I wish you and Snell continued success for my years to come. Bill
