 * Symbol question.svg Nice article and hook, however I cannot find the hook fact. Ref 10 leads to a landing page rather than an article when I investigated. Cheers Victuallers (talk) 16:47, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Don't understand. When I click on either the original or the archived citation, I get a page that says near the the top Remember Fred? Not Fred Yando, of Quad USA. But FRED as in Full-Range Electrostatic Dipole—the now venerable Quad ESL-63, available in its new US Monitor version. --  Ohc  ¡digame! 22:06, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
 * hmmm I'm clicking this Victuallers (talk) 00:23, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Bizarre. I'm seeing a correctly archived page with the text i mentioned. if you're seing a float advert box, i guess you need to close it first. Are you getting same with the original source link too? --  Ohc  ¡digame! 02:44, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Suggested workaround that will get you to the same citation here. --  Ohc  ¡digame! 15:29, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
 * This is unclear even with the ref as FRED may be a type of speaker. THis alt if its OK with you solves my problem Victuallers (talk) 15:03, 27 January 2014 (UTC)
