Great thread nitrobob Music and gear lovers all over the states and the world. Gives me reason to think things aren’t quite as bad as they seem. I toured the great Mayan ruins site of Tikal in Guatemala yesterday. A bit of culture shock crept in, but our guide told us of his love of music and dancing, reminding me of the universal love and power of music.

I'm in the Navy. At the moment I'm based in Japan. Japan has these interesting stores called "hard-off" which always seem to have rare and esoteric hi-fi equipment. I got a Technics SE-A3 amplifier and 3 way set of Goto Unit horn drivers for very reasonable prices. Soon I'll be transferring to Norfolk VA and hopefully there will be some sort of audiophile community there I can get with. |

The best place in the USA for classic music that is affordable, world class and has some place to park when you get get there , The Twin Cities . Also the only place(?) in USA where you can buy an entire high-end system built where you live ! Magnepan,ARC,Bel Canto,Van Alstine , Atmasphere . Anti-Cable,Scmitt Cables And if you really need a TT you can just drop into Needle Doctor .
Also, the excellent 24/7 Jazz station 88.5 has the largest per-capita share of listening market share audience of ANY city in the USA . So you know the folks are hip !And believe it or not, the jazz station is owned by the Minneapolis School Board .

Geez all of you audiophools live all over the place. Very Nice indeed. For those of you in the NYC area I will be reaching out to you to invite you for a listen at a local dealer in northern New Jersey if you don't mind me doing so. I will be launching my audio products then so you are all invited for a listen.
I am obviously in New Jersey.

@schubert, Robert Fulton's incredible Ark Records recordings were of local amateur Minneapolis choral groups and church organists. Sonically, they are amongst the best recordings I have ever heard, and are musically charming. |
