Best place to demo small room setup in LA/SD metro


I have a small den off my kitchen that has housed a NAD 3200 integrated amp and KEF 104/2 speakers. We call it our party system, nice warm background music played at moderate volume. After 20 years, want to upgrade to similar neutral sounding system--great natural sound for small room. Can anyone recommend knowledgable dealers who have expertise in this in the LA and San Diego area. Also, any recommendations for optimizing a $20,000 budget. Open to tube versus solid state.

Yes and no.

No. It actually comes from a later Clash lyric "bongo fury a speciality."

Yes. I would agree that Zappa did make incredible richly textured and beautiful music in his day--his guitar playing was under-rated against the other heroes from that era. I had a boss in the early 1980's who dated him when he was attending Pomona College--told me he was brilliant.
Just a quick follow-up:

Thanks for the recommendation of Brooks. Previewed the VTL and Wilson combo this weekend and it is everything I could have dreamed for.

Can't wait to check out the other guys. All your responses are much appreciated.
