You own a store, you sell 2 brands, which?

Esoteric & Luxman

Klipsch as that would take care of the Sheeple that want the current rage of vintage, horns, high efficiency and ugly boxes.

Pioneer- a brand with a strong history and affordable for the masses

If this was the UK in the 1980s it should have been Sony and Technics but it had to be Linn and Naim because it was hopeless to blow against the wind.

Today it would be NAD and Dali.

Virtually all budgets and requirements could be catered to and it would be next to impossible to get a bad result.

Even the £700 NAD C588 turntable is probably better than what’s currently being used by 99% of the population.

Dali, as far as I know, don’t make a truly bad loudspeaker.

In any case I’d simply refuse to sell anything I didn’t personally like or believe in.

@ MC....(belated post, been Away...everyone lucky....)

...it Was 4 years....8 months of aftershocks....

No particular expectations of stopping.
Building up for a Big One?

Stand By. 😏

For people who aren't rich Polk and Sony.They both make great stuff and you still have money to take the wife out.
