Electronic Retailer's, Going By?
I would imagine a very large percentage of the higher end gear is sold through a brick and mortar audio dealer. This might change very quickly but I hope it doesn't. My dealer is amazing and he actually saved me from advice given to me on this web... 
Black Keys on CBS Sunday Morning
I was at the store. My wife watched it and said it was great. 
break-in--bane or boon ??
Ivan. What you said may be true in a highly resolving system but not in mine. What makes the difference in my system is speaker placement. Stands, mass loading etc. But to be fair this is what I wanted and is why I have what I have. I do agree wit...

And thanks again Mountainsong. I check this area of the forum constantly in search of new artists and you share my taste in music. 
any Yuri's Honing work fans?
I found out that his stuff is difficult to come by. I'm leaving for Italy in a week and will see if I can find it in Rome. I always go shopping for music when in other countries. I got some of my best lps in Munich back in the early 80's. Canada i... 
Is anyone interested some Sonus Faber Amatis?
Oh. I also have a Grizzly hair dryer for dogs that I'm selling. It scares the daylight's out of my Wheaten Terrier. 
Is anyone interested some Sonus Faber Amatis?

Electronic Retailer's, Going By?
Good point Mrtennis. I just love going to my dealers place to be surrounded by amazing gear. My local guy owns the business and its just him and his wife. No high pressure sales. Sometimes we go for a cocktail or have dinner. I will only buy from ... 
Another survey - Best bargain you ever got
My dad bought me a Technics receiver,turntable and Genesis loudspeakers in 1979. That was a good deal. 
The Night Air
The Stein Harmonizer is amazing by the way. I wish I could justify the steep price. Not sure what they're doing but they're doing. 
Electronic Retailer's, Going By?
I will only buy from my local shop. Once he's gone what else is there? Who's going to leave my $5000 amplifier on my door step? I know I can purchase what ever I want for less money but audio is one area that I'm willing to pay more. I buy everyth... 
Suggestions on a neutral and powerful integrated..
Ayre is coming out with the AX-5 within the near future. 
What are your general thoughts of B&W speakers
B&W speakers got me into higher end audio. I always had decent low budget stuff from the early 80's and some time in the mid 90's I bought some DM602's and they were the best bang for the buck ever. I cranked those bad boys every day for 10 ye... 
LFD NCSE & Perreaux TS2
Fidelis is great. Ive never been to the store but I met Walter a couple of weeks ago when he was driving though town with some Harbeth 30.1's (amazing) and he's a pleasure to be around and is not your high pressure salesman. I would buy anything f...
