When I was a teenager my best friend and I would visit Audio King, our local audio store. They had all kinds of Klipsch. I unfortunately don't remember the exact model, it was either a Belle or LaScala that they had set up in a sound room. Absolutely blew me away. I used to go there almost every week to chat with the sales guys and occasionally buy stuff. Never bought anything super high-end from them in terms of home audio because I was more into car audio at the time.
Eventually bought a KV1 center speaker as my first Klipsch purchase. In the 30 years since then I've had probably a couple dozen different pairs of Klipsch including RF-7, forte I and II, Quartet, KG4, Heresy I, II and III, RS-42, SS2, KG 3.5, RF-25, and on and on.
My current setup of 5 Heresys, two AW-650 for Atmos and two horn subs is by far the best I've ever had and the best I've heard anywhere.
