audition spots in los angeles

i am in l.a. for the next month. i am hoping that some of you can recommend a shop where i can demo equipment. i come from a small town in alabama so there's not much to choose from. with a lot of research i've ended up with a pretty synergistic system, but i'd like to hear some of the more unique gear such as vtl, etc. i won't ever get that chance back home so...let me know who's good to deal with out here. thanks, brad hilliker 2out2sea@msn.com

I'm visiting LA this week.

Can anyone suggest a place to hear Sound Labs or other
top performing speakers?

Don't need to hear Wilson as I can do that locally.

Emailists,

Elliot Midwood of Acoustic Image has an amazing, specially designed, listening room in his in-house store. He carries mid, high-end, and ultra high-end equipment.

Elliot is terrific to talk to and extremely knowledgeable about all things audio related. By appointment only, though.

Here's a mini review of his HE 2006 room. I spent quite a while in there and it was everything and more than this review states. Absolutely incredible. Of course, for >$125k, it should be. Also, Elliot has great taste in music.
