Audio stores in N. Virginia?


Moved to Reston Area in Virginia and looking for "local" dealers in my area. Any options around here? Thanks.

Tom , You are a very luck guy because you are right down the road form a very good audio store, Deja Vu Audio. It is located at 1401 Chain Bridge Rd # 203 , Mclean , VA 22101
Hey Tom-
Welcome to the area.
My highest recommendations go to Deja Vu Audio in McLean, which should be about a 20 minute drive for you. Vu is an really good guy, a super knowledgeable and engaging owner with a great set of ears. You'll be glad you dropped in.

Daja Vu is a really fun place to visit. It is quite unique in that they sell tube gear almost exclusively (the have Conrad Johnson, which sells some solid state and Bel Canto), and much of that tube gear is gear made exclusively for them. They also have some extraordinarily rare Vintage Western Electric gear, like a 16A horn system and 59B amp. For more commonly available brands, they have Audio Note, Harbeth, ProAc, Synthesis and Sonus Faber.

Another interesting store is Command Audio in Falls Church Va. They carry more conventional high end brands and have quite a lot of lines, such as Magico, Raidho, Neat, Constellation, Audia, Aurender, and ClearAudio.

Centerville Va. has Gifted Listener. They carry Ayre, Magnepan, Linn, Vandersteen and VTL.

All of these places are friendly and pleasant to just visit.
I would recommend checking out Scott Dalzell at Viva HiFi in Vienna VA. Scott is passionate about audio and determined to help his clients get the best possible sound for their money. He carries a some well know brands like VPI but also lesser know stellar performers like Modwright and Daedalus which might be a nice alternative to some of the dealers mentioned above who carry mostly "mainstream" products. Good luck!
