Who is the WORST Audio Shop?

There seems to have been quite a bit written over the past several years regarding the myriad of reasons one can attribute to the demise of the brick and mortar audio shop. Rarely have I read however one of the most obvious reasons, which based on my experience, has got to be the simple fact that for the most part, they just didn't offer a high end listening experience. That, along with an elitist and careless attitude towards customer service, buried them as much as anything else. So here's my question. Who is the WORST audio shop/dealer you've ever encountered?

Chicago, NOT Mini-Soda, or even Wisc.

and BTW, what others perceive as rudeness or "being pushy", obnoxious, etc. is just normal behavior for NYers

that is why they reject the label

you can find similar behavior all over the world in large cities - ever heard the denizens of Bordeaux or Burgundy talk about Parisians?

New Yorkers are rude, so are Berliners , both are also more friendly than most .
Having lived in both MN and WI , Minnesotans are FAR more polite than 
Wisconsinites . Twin Cities metro is 4 million people, more friendly than any other big city I've ever been in which is many .

A lot of truth in that randy, many in the Twin Cities were born in northern 
MN, hard upon the Manitoba and Ontario borders .
Also, Twin Cities are the bright lights, big city for many Canadians .
Smarter kids from here tend to attend college in Canada because the price is right , but remain  there because Canada is right for them .

I have also positive imprint about Twins. Clean, organized, great public transportation and very cycle friendly. Loved the skywalk as well!
