Victor is a great guy! He has visited our local music club on a couple of occasions and I know that he has helped at least one of our members with setting up his gear for optimal sound quality. I visited the store recently and he's done a nice job with the relaunch. I especially liked that he has demo systems set up that cater to both entry level audiophiles and those seeking the high end. I hope he does well.
VANDERSTEEN dealer in Tacoma WA has reopened under new ownership
HIGH NOTE AUDIO is now the Vandersteen dealer (and Audio Research, Rega, Audioquest, and other brands too) in Tacoma, WA.
It was formerly Advanced Audio, owned by Definitive out of Seattle, and closed shop briefly a few months ago. Victor Prinsen was one of two main guys at the old store, and has reopened the shop in the same location. He hopes to have a grand reopening soon. He is also looking for some good help. Victor is a good fellow (cheerful, helpful, and patient), and I have bought speakers and a CD player from him and hope to spend more money soon!
I was amazed that for short time it seemed that the closest Vandersteen dealer in the PacNW to Seattle would be Portland OR, with none in Seattle.
