Any audio shops in Vegas that shouldn't be missed?
Hey all,
I'm off to Las Vegas for a week, playing in a hockey tournament there (believe it or not). Since a man can only gamble and drink to excess for 20 hours a day, any good audio stores that are worth dropping in for a listen?
The Upper Ear was the only and the best shop in Vegas 'till recently. I talked with Steve (owner) just couple of years ago and they were still in business. Now they have Executive Audio, Ultimate Audio etc...
Upper Ear 3900 W. Charleston at Valley View, In the NW corner. Just about the only true stereo shop in town that is not a chain. For a city this big with as much money that floats around here we don't have squat for high-end audio. Best of the chains is Ultimate Electronics. Most people here that are into audio go to LA to get it.
I had a greate experience last Christmas at Premiere Home Entertainment, 2300 N. Rainbow (702)877-0222. They carry B&W and Audio Research so credentials in order and they couldn't have been friendlier or more helpful (even wrapped my DM303's for free!) (Warning: they put red pepper in the popcorn). Kim, the store's President, is a real Babe. Viva Las Vegas!
