I found a great place where they are very helpful and have some really nice gear on display....Audio Visual Therapy of Nashua NH....great place , nice people and best of all no tax... I picked up an Anthem MRX 510 for my father from them and they were awesome to deal with and I'll definitely visit them first the next time I buy something
The guys at Spearit Sound in Northhampton MA have always treated me great too.
I used to visit Natural Sound of Framingham MA but I don't trust them. They burnt me on more than one occasion and are real snobs unless they smell $10k in your pocket. The last thing I bought from them was a Velodyne wireless sub kit. They charged me $200 when you can buy it direct through Velodyne at the MSRP of $159 with free shipping... They said "oh,we thought it was $199" when I confronted them and laughed it off, although I did not think it was funny at all...not only that they let it sit in their warehouse for almost three weeks without calling me. After contacting them several times I finally got someone to look into it...and they somehow though it was funny that my item that I had already paid for was put into their stock. That really annoyed me because I was putting my system back together after a flood, I had gone 10 months with my gear packed up.
I'm all for buying locally but why when that's the kind of service you get. They also sold me a used tube, how do I know it was used? Someone had hand written "V2" on the tube...sure enough it was noisy, and you guessed it they would not accept blame or replace it...scumbags
That's OK because after that I purchased an NAD M51 dac, Revel speakers, REL sub and Magnum Dynalab MD102 , all products that they carried......
STAY AWAY
