Very Very Interesting NYC Venue and Meeting Place


I have just been sent a link by a friend of a New York Audio Equipment Venue to be found at - 28 Greene Street - NYC.

I have chose to put this on the Analog Topic as the Venue is surely to become a  mecca for those with a enthusiasm for all things Analog.

The owner has done lots of foot work to get to where he is and has a very secure place for how a sound is to be produced to meet his attraction, I say hats off to him for being Old School Adventurous.

The Link is a very good watch and will tell all about the Social Opportunities to be had.

@bruce19 Hi Bruce, the Link is not a usual link I place, the Youtube Video is the place to find all the info, Enjoy 🍻      

Manhattan used to be replete with audio salons that offered succor to the wandering audiophile, and at one time or another I was in all of them. They were open much more than 5 hours per week. I include Lyric HiFi, Harmony House, Singer, and a few others. This was during the 70s when I was a near penniless med student living in the Bronx. Then in the 80s and 90s those salons either disappeared or became “by appointment only”. I won’t forget walking into Lyric one day long after I’d graduated from med school (and where I had actually purchased speakers) only to be turned away for not having an appointment. Mike Kaye, a consummate gentleman, had sold the business, and it sorely missed his charm and kindness to neophytes, rich or poor.

@pindac  Thanks! This is an interesting place with a philosophy of listening that appeals. May visit. Always interested in promising speaker and amp kits and plans.

It does seem the only agenda on the Saturday is for likeminded individuals with a interest or even a willingness to express a interest to have a venue to visit and have a musical encounter.

This is quite different to a typical arranged demonstration, as the fundamental is all about meeting with others.

I only know of one other arrangement that comes close to this, that I have not been able to experience, even though a Journey through mainland Europe once got me close to dates of being able to have the experience, and that one is in Aachen in Germany.
