Heading to London - Hifi Store/Record Shop Recommendations?

@topofroc

Any recommendations for good hifi shops or record stores near the Marllebone neighborhood? I believe that's near the Oxford Circus station and The British Museum.

You're best bet might be KJ West One (not too far from the Post Office Tower/Marylebone/ Baker St area etc) but be sure to ring ahead and make an appointment first.

Some of these high falutin audio stores are quite particular in the way they choose to operate.

Abbey Road! Of course.

Many thanks for the suggestions. Keep them coming!!!

+1 Portobello Road market which is open on Saturdays, lots there plus records.

UK HIFI is 240V plus 20% VAT is levied on virtually everything except used goods.

Recent changes have abolished the tax-free tourist scheme.

I'd think about taking in a show, lots to choose from, Plays, Ballet, Opera, Rock whatever.

Try Rules Restaurant, Charing Cross, same steak and kidney pie recipe for hundreds of years and the Hung, Drawn and Quartered Pub, across the road from the Tower of London.

A walked the zebra 30 times back and forth, caused a little traffic jam for sure
