Good stores in LA

Digital Ear guys have been really easy to deal with over the years and they have some top notch gear. They work with you on trade ins and such as well.

If you want some 'culture', and are in SanDiego, the place to go is Balboa Park. There on EVERY Sunday of the year, is a 1 hour Organ Recital at what may be the ONLY remaining outdoor, municipal pipe organ in the world. Played by SanDiego's Municipal Organist, Carol Williams, it is an amazing auditory experience. Catch it on a cool, rainy winter day for best sound.......dress warm.

Magfan, we don't have any "cool, rainy winter days" here in San Diego, the council banned them.

Knock San Diego weather? Must'a been a misprint.
Some San Diego Tourist organization or other is probably sending over a goon squad to break my legs.

Well, how was the trip?

2nd or third for Weinhardt - only dealer I've ever been to whose customer service (and appreciation) has nothing to do with price. No 'snobbery' here. While he sells everything to include mega-buck stuff, he's happy to take in even modest trades and really seems to enjoy the customer-dealer interaction, no matter what you are buying. I've since moved away from that area and have still gone back to him for purchases. And because he does take in trades he usually has a pretty cool/eclectic assortment of gear at good prices available.

The trip went well. Spoke with David Weinhart but couldn't manage to link up due to scheduling. I'm working too much!! Good to have all this new info for the future (near future I hope).
