The Best Audio Dealer


My vote for the best dealer award goes to Mario,owner of TOYS FROM THE ATTIC info@tfta.com This guy helped me break into analog.I made alot of mistakes because "Dave,you don't listen" Any way Mario was always to the rescue.He,over the phone has helped me build an awesome sounding stereo.He has always given me the Best price and I know he hasnt made much money from me.He calls me on occasion to see "whats up" I have never met the man or been to his shop because its over 300 miles away

That AudioPimp guy was pretty awesome. Isn't he incarcerated at this time? I bet one of his ho's turned on him.
Trelja, I live in the Philly area. I know Mike at STO. Real nice guy. Can't say I ever heard of Community Audio. Where are they located? Any nice tales to share about customer service or the types of gear they sell?
Bifwynne, most people confuse Community Audio with the defunct Jack Rubsinson's (still active in the industry - I think now with VPI?) Chestnut Hill Audio, which used to sit right below the Ben Franklin Bridge. Community Audio is located on Germantown Avenue in the Chestnut Hill section of Philadelphia. John Adams (owner) and Bill are normally there, and extremely welcoming. If you do make the trip, further up the hill is Hideaway Records, which I suggest you also visit.

Even when everyone else abandoned it, they stuck with both tubes and vinyl. Most of the brands they carry have been with them for a very, very long time - Cambridge, Gallo, JMLabs, Jolida, Linn, Music Hall, Naim, Rega, Rogue, and Totem. In the past, they've also had Cain & Cain, Electrocompaniet, Fried, JSE/Infinite Slope, NAD, Osborn, and Redgum.
Trelja: Cool!! I can just about place it. Used live in NW Philly as a kid. Later, Plymouth Meeting area. Chestnut Hill was just a little down G-Town Pike. It's a gorgeous area. Valley Glen, Morris Arboretum, etc.
