  This is the single best store of its kind that I've ever visited. The owner spent more than two hours with me demoing every tube amp in the place, then gave me great recommendations about setup and turntables. This shop also has the BEST sounding tube amps I've ever heard. They blew away what I heard at every shop in Austin and Houston. (And I've visited them all on my recent quest to upgrade my vinyl system). Do yourself a favor and visit.

  My favorite audio store in town! I bought my Rega P1 here and it was one of the best buying experiences I've ever had. The owner is great and will demo some very cool equipment! Would definitely recommend.

  What a great place for high end audio. Brian the owner was very accommodating and genuinely enjoyed trying different albums and different equipment. And the selection... Well, hat place could do some serious damage to my wallet...

  I typically call for an appointment, stop by and listen to several systems that he has set up in advance. (to drop by randomly also a good use of time). Listening to your records (or tidal, etc) on speakers called orangutans is epic.

  I had a great experience here! The owner/operator is very chill, laid back and not pressuring at all. I don't get the 2 bad reviews at all. Yeah, he's not open as many hours as Best Buy. Do you go to work for 80 hours a week? Didn't think so. And I seriously doubt he wouldn't play the music type of your choice so long as it wouldn't damage his equipment. Anyway, I'd definitely go back to this little store again.
