Any good stereo shops in Dayton or Cincinnati Ohio

I live right between Dayton and Cinci and it is pretty dry around here. Audio Etc in Centerville and Carlin Audio in Kettering are the only two I know of. Parts Express is just a couple miles the road but it is basically a warehouse with a small store front really just meant for picking up orders.

Reubent, I couldn't help but notice we both have a simple setup with monitors and the same tv. Must be an Ohio thing.

Don't recall the name of the place in Kettering, but I stopped in to listen to Vandersteens a couple of years ago and was treated well. They spent time letting me hear the 1C, 2CE sigs, and the 3As. Very nice. I think I found them on Vanderteen's web site.

Geared4me,

My system just got more simple tonight. I just bought a pair of Quad 12L Active speakers and have them hooked directly to the variable output of my EVS level 2 mod'd Oppo 970 Universal player. It can't get much more simple than that! 2 components, great sound.......

BTW, I've thoroughly enjoyed the Panasonic EDTV plasma for the last few years. I waited until the price dropped to $2500 to buy it! It's crazy what you can buy today for $2500!

Enjoy,

Yes there is a place in Oakwood (S. Dayton suburb), on Far Hills that has some nice gear. I was in last summer and listened to the new Thiel's (their flagship new model) They also had Jm Labs, Dyaudio, CJ, etc..... Pretty nice guy's too.

Thanks everyone,

Hanson Audio Video that Chris just mentioned seems to be the place to seek out. I just like checking out the higher end stuff that I haven't heard yet and shooting the bull, that stereophile thing.
