Best Retailer Youve Done Business With?

Splittie, your opinion would most likely change if you meet a great dealer like the ones I and others mentioned.
We all enjoy a deal and many can only participate in this hobby with the help of used websites but when you can and if you can if feel we all have a responsibility to do business with actual audio stores, after all this and other arena's for used gear wouldnt exist without them.

Jerry of Audio Magic is one of the best.

Funny thing when I read the forum "best retailer" I thought I don't know the best but I know the worst. Funny thing is as I read down tons of other people think the same thing that Audio Perfection in Minn is the worst. The most aragant men, and everything the other guys all said. I remember In 1992 I was shocked when they said my kef 104 where decent, but since everything I have or used is the worst and theirs the best.

Do yourself a favor. Don't go to Audio horrible Perfection and check out a great place with great nice guys called HIFI sound in downtown Mpls.

Music Direct - great folks and service
Tim at Bradford's in Eugene, OR - one of the finest audio retailers anywhwere
Bob November of McKenzie River Music - guitars and amps but still the finest guitar shop on the planet!

Hungryear,

I agree about Audio Perfection not giving a red cent discount on anything. I was looking at spending tens of thousands on transparent cable and asked what kind of discount they could give for all of that and their answer was.....get this, "we feel all of our stuff is of great value already to not need a discount added on"! I could not believe that!

Thousands upon thousands for cable thats so incredibly marked high that the minute you get it home you would be lucky to get more then 50% of what you paid for it, and they say its a good value already.

The one guy mentioned stereoland instead of audio perfection and I agree. Stereoland has some decent stuff though not near what audio perfection has, but the guys at stereoland like HiFi sound in downtown Mpls are all great and down to earth.
