I am openning a shop. What equipment should I sell


Planning on opening a retail "store front" what equipment should I carry?? Should I sell at price points or sell what sounds good? How important is base response in speakers. What is the right approach??

Trelja Thanks for that thoughtful response. You are correct the magic is in the midrange. I favor a "spot on" tonal quality as well. Don't ask me to define it, you just know it when you hear it. Amazing how many speakers, even expensive brand names miss the mark on both counts.
Well you guys sure did offer lots of encouragement. Well maybe not so much, think I will finish my bottle of sleeping pills tonight, there are only 48 left. But seriously would you be more apt to buy brands that advertise a lot in the TAS and Stereophile? Have you ever purchased a product without reading a good review somewhere?
Here is an interesting view at audio asylum. http://www.audioasylum.com/forums/critics/messages/14934.html
Just one of the major problems in the industry. No one will stand up and honestly say what will work well together. Fear of other manufactures getting mad. Check out the last piece of advice from John. Last sentence. How true that is.

You are so right. Just sell stuff you have never heard. The reviews say it is good so it must be.
Seriously I think a lot of these on line retailers must do that.

Thank god for food stamps.......people come to listen and I go out to their car and siphon gas....

Not much money but good people and lots of fun...
Come on guys. I want to open a shop and make money....X wife, BMW, ski trips to Aspen. No way that Speaker Craft is going to pay that bill. Audio people are to well educated. Can't make the car payment/alimony and trips to Aspen selling stuff like that.
Cables and interconnects. That is where the money is. Please audiophile these readers know I am a dealer so stay away.

Cables and Interconnects. $32,500 for the first meter. The second meter is free.

I would appreciate your support.
