I will travell to New York, would be glad to meet members


Me and my wife will travell from Sweden to New York and visit my daughter who has moved there permanently. Her husband has got a job I New York and they live on Staten Island near the ferry.
We would love if any audigon  meber in NY will meet with us to listen to their fine set up and perhaps have dinner out with us. We will be there between 1 and 10 of may.
i am a retired lawyer and my wife still works as a meteorologist 
Is there any high end shops in New York worth visiting?

Whart. Thanks for tips. Makes me hungry at once
i thought sound by singer was out of business but realize that they still exist and sells som high end (but only by apointment)
Greg and chayro, i have send you pm but got no response 
Sadly there seems not to be any really high end stores  left in central NY city
(prove me wrong). I remember beeing told that in the old days Sounds by Singer
used armed trucks to deliver really high end gears to customers!,
Luckily we have still here in Stockholm one of Europes biggest  Audio Store
"audio concept"carrying some heavy stuff. I bought my Focal Grande Utopia Em there.
Whart I would be glad to see you if you ever go to Stockholm again (and please give me your best manhattan restaurant tip)
Thanks for Italien food tip 
anyone have experience with the resurfaced Sounds by Singer?

Thanks to you and your wife for your great hospitality 
it was really fun to see and talk to you.
Also it was really interesting to hear your good sounding set up
maximased for your small listening room (included 4 subs)
We where also taken to your friend Als audio shop Brigth Audio
to listen to some really great equipment (including Kharma speakers and the astonishing MQA Brooklyn dac,cheap to at two grand)
 As I understand Brigth Audio is one of very few Manhattan shops that are still
in ground floor with windows at street level (no appointment needed)
Other shops have moved to upstairs fiats and often  available by appointment only



Last time in NY we visit a concert in Carnegie Hall
Bernstein,Mozart and Schuman 
Fantastic music in a fabulous hall,
I think of the standard audiophile records made there
weavers reunion an C hall
Harry Belafonte at C Hall
and many more
