Are KEF new at Fry's?

[KEW]

I was in Fry's today and noticed a KEF HT system. I had not seen any KEF stuff there before (but I cant say I've looked too close at the HT systems).
With the trend of B&W at BestBuy and PSB at Crutchfield, I had to wonder if KEF was also getting into the big box game and distributors and vendors are jockeying for product position.

KEF has been in the game for a while now. In my Fry's the speaker room is a graveyard of what children do to speakers.

I thought fry's went out of business??? At least in GA they shutdown all their stores.

Maybe out there, but they are still thriving here where they started.

Yes, KEF is new to Frys, and if I am not mistaken, they are also selling Martin Logans.

Tweeter went out of business quite a few years ago. Never heard of Hi-Fi Buys.

Pardon me for the indefinite pronoun confusion.

Hi-Fi Buys (I believe ATL HQ - I bought stuff from them in the late '70's) went belly-up about 2 years ago. It was a shame because they really used to stock a good variety of gear.

The addresses I gave above are for Fry's.
