John Rutan / Audio Connection

Hi everyone.  I wanted to share a great experience with John Rutan of Audio Connection. 

While searching to purchase an Audio Research preamp, I found what I was looking for, a black LS28.  I wasn't familiar with the seller's ID as I'm not a steady buyer of audio equipment.  I contacted the seller and immediately felt very comfortable talking with John Rutan.  We agreed on a price and it was air freighted from New Jersey to Hawaii, and arrived in a few days.  The preamp was in superb, one owner, like new condition with very low (450) hours.  Break-in already done for me!  John is a true gentleman, honest, courteous, professional, extremely knowledgeable and very easy to work with. 

A big thanks to John!

gdnrbob,
Yes, I understand that, but did he also work there for a good while with John?

gdnrbob,
Are you saying that he wasn't there at the same time as John Rutan? The guy I'm talking about was there for at least several years or more and it was my impression that John was his boss.

He is super nice, honest and helpful. Years ago though, before he expanded to an additional building across the street, he had an employee whose name I never knew who was rude to me on several occasions and used to give me the stink eye. He was short and bald with a mustache and wire rimmed glasses. I wanted to mention it to John, but I felt uncomfortable in doing it. I hope that he doesn't still work there.
