Thank you, whoever both of you are. Feel free to send a note to my e-mail to introduce your selve's if you whish. Perhaps we have met in person before.

Yes I was aware that Salon One has been closed for some time now. To bad as I can recall many days enjoying the music there! My kind of Audio store!
Ok so maybe if we beg Bruce pretty please! He will open another store :)

Not only was there wonderful knowledgeable advice at Salon One and a ton of different gear, from many different manufactures. ( in fact it was like walking into a physical audio magazine ) The atmosphere was casual and friendly. I coming from the technical field was right in my element playing with the gear there. I spent some long hours there and was usually left by myself eventually to listen and swap out equipment. Of course there was the occasional " how are you doing " question. I enjoyed this aspect thoroughly!
From the conversations I had with Bruce..... I think the major thing that did him in was the loaner policy he had. I can recall him telling me some people would keep the stuff for months, if not well past a year. And I remember one particular case where I guy in Chicago had $$$$$$ worth of stuff and then filed bankrutpcy and got to keep everything.

I guess sometimes a few bad eggs will spoil all the fun for everyone else. But I sure wish another dealer with the rest of the Salon One personailty would come along. I would travel many miles to be there when they opened!!!
