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


Thought experiment:

You run a store which sells used and new gear from any point in history.  The catch is you can have exactly 2 brands.  One of electronics one of speakers. 

Defunct brands are OK as are those current with long histories. 

What brands are they?

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.

For people who aren't rich Polk and Sony.They both make great stuff and you still have money to take the wife out.
Bose & Sony was a good pick Duder.   everyone knows the line.  It's people picking the likes of Audio Note.   2000 people looking to buy a 7 k. audio system  would walk right past the Store .  It's like Tidal HiFi  I've asked a lot of
people all ages about it .  No one knows what it is  except people reading audiogon 
 How many read it
