In Reply to: RE: Does anyone remember these great old Chicago-based stereo stores from the 70s? posted by Jeff Jenkins on February 17, 2010 at 12:25:06
I bought a Sunsui 7070 amp and JBL L26 speakers from them in the 70's.

I was there in I think 1979. I didn't like what I heard and went across the street to Victor's and bought a pair of KEF 105's. I still have them but I think the tweeters or the crossover are f***ed up. Since then Pro Musica had a store there. I bought a pair of ProAc Tablette Signature's in 1997. I still have those and they work well. Quintessence is there now. I bought some ARC stuff there of which I still have the PH7 phono preamp I still. The listening rooms in these stores were always top notch.
My favorite Musicraft story: Walked into their North Avenue store one day back in 1988 to see what they had on their trade-in shelf. It was my lucky day - Marantz 8B. $275. With 30 day parts and labor warranty yet! Almost dislocated my wrist whipping out my Visa card. Ah, I miss those days...
Still use the ADS L 710's my wife bought me at Musicraft back in the early 80's(?).
