There is no where to listen to the McInTosh D 150 here in lower Delaware farm country down here and Overtures store is two hours away up north in Slumming part of the state and very dangerous driving and my son is a EMT worker and on some calls up there They have to call the police to go with them to help people because of being afraid of being shot while trying to save someone's life , not worth the chance of going all the way up there . So very little chance of hearing this McInTosh or any other high-end audio in my area . I think this is why high-end audio is dying out countrywide everyone I speak to or have spoken to on the phone they are having the same problem no where to listen to high-end audio gear and I feel this is why most people buy online it is a sad time for us that love the Hobby so much and not being able to hear the gear or feel it Touch it or have a one on one talk with a good salesperson it's like buying a car without seeing it or driving it first . Because some of this gear cost as much as a new car . how do you guys deal with this problem ?
