Heading to London - Hifi Store/Record Shop Recommendations?


Greetings all,

Just found out I will be in London for 5 days at the end of the month. I'll be fairly free on the first day and would like to listen to some gear I might not normally see here in Atlanta. I would also like to  pick up some new vinyl if possible. 

Any recommendations for good hifi shops or record stores near the Marllebone neighborhood? I believe that's near the Oxford Circus station and The British Museum.

Thanks for the suggestions!

I shopped London 30 years ago for classical. I have no idea what the street is like there. EIL, which is not in central London, has the records you want- mostly- but you’ll pay. If you set up an appointment, Roy Ford is one of the guys who handles sales and you can use my name. I’ve bought some nice UK pressings from them. Not cheap but sometimes, you find a bargain. I assume you are after UK pressings. As for classical or jazz, can’t tell you. Oh, these are not "new" records.
