holiday suggestions...

The festive season is soon upon us and I find myself with some free time as the clan will be away and my office staff refuses to come in to work. I'm thinking of hopping a jet somewhere and visiting some affable audio salons over a two to three day period, perhaps two per day. While I'm not looking for anything in particular, nothing in my systems is safe especially if the price is right. Are there any suggestions as to where I should go? (Please be polite!) I've done the NYC thing and apart from the 'tude, I'm thinking more of a motel and drive around scenario. Finally,it would also be nice to have a few local jazz dives where I wouldn't feel out of place nursing a cool one by my lonesome in the evening. Thanks!

Hey, thanks for the suggestions. Chicago - brrr! I'm coming from the Great White North and prefer a gentler clime. Memphis? Well it's been some time since I've had decent BBQ but is there a lot of audio there? NoCal is a good suggestion but I've been there recently for non-audio business. It's on the list though.

I'm probably asking for too much but I'm thinking about camping out in a motel on an Interstate within a 2 hr radius of an airport and maybe five or six good stores. Is there anywhere in SoCal, Texas or Florida that would meet these criteria?

...OK, I might just stay home and apply the travel expenses to a pair of interconnects.

Gaudio, I was thinking about a phono cable switch but whatever it is it would have to go through the step-up which has a fixed cable coming out of it anyways.

Slapster, I did part of my schoolin' in the Mile High (if you catch my drift) and it would be good to see if some of the old stores are still around or what the new ones are like. There was also a great jazz dive downtown that we frequented regularly but curiously I don't remember its name.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all down there.
