Newton,
Not too sure what 2nd or 3rd tier manufacturers are?
If you are referring to smaller sized manufacturers struggling for name brand recognition, it has been my experience that this is where many of the breakthroughs in design and equipment performance are initially introduced. I am sure of one thing and that is every audio company has crossed those lower tiers at one time in their history.
Im going for the education, listening experiences, as one can never get enough of those, and finally purchase more music! Not too often one gets to rub elbows with the larger vinyl distributors and I am sure they will be running sales or are always open to dealing so you can save money or purchase even more music.
NYC and an audio show is my kind of weekend.
See you there,
