Swarthy, I had the same dilemma - Hyperion Sound closest dealer to Chicago was in Pennsylvania. I decided to buy demo speakers anyway based on fantastic reviews and they proved to be great sounding. What I failed to understand was that company with such poor dealer base eventually had to go bankrupt and they did. Now I'm worrying about replacement parts.
Buying equipment
Ok, I've been looking online to put together a system and man is it frustraring. I live in rural wyoming and cannot go to a stereo store. So I will need to buy online.
None of the companies sell their components online, they only refer me to a dealer. Then even on the dealer's sites there are very few photos and again no prices. I did find 6moons' site, but it is tedious clicking through reviews to get to the bottom and find out its $45,000.
Amazon doesn't have much that is interesting- I want something unique and all that I would have access to is Sonos, Focal, 'Bird', marantz, and yamaha. Fleawatt is done building for the year and that seems to be it.
I'm looking for a tight little system that will fill the living room of a one bedroom apartment with hardwood floors.
I want something that will play standard CD's and one that I can eventually hook up a Pro-ject turntable to.
Any help of how to find a system to buy?
Thanks,
S.
