I just saw this print ad on E-Bay and was wondering is this worth the price as is. As it says it comes from a magazine so already is it not the original, or did they come as a stand alone 24 page ad. To me color already looks off a bit but there is a shot of a 2b with a great slogen "They have the ability to make your favorite precious speakers 2nd rate". I thought that was great as they certainly do to my other sets w/ the 350s a near 2nd place. Being from a magazine with seperated pages and with some staple holes is this worth anything or is the original out there somewhere intact?

    Here is my take, so take it for what it is worth. LOL.

    It is *your* man cave. Your man cave should be a reflection of things that you enjoy or that interest you.
    To that end, if you like it and think it would look cool framed and displayed, run with it my man.

    Me...I love audio, motorcycle racing and WWII memorabilia. As such, those are the things I will be putting into my man cave when I build it.

    Ha I have the great escape movie poster hanging in my man cave. The one with him setting on the triumph.
    Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same. What I am tryin to say is, is that the course of your life, well its changing, and you don't even see it- Forest Bondurant
