RE: Hifi wow moment

My all time favorite store was The Audiophile Sound Studio in Middleton, WI, several miles west of Madison. The store was a large house with seven listening rooms. They had many, many, super audio products around the late 70's early 80's. The full blown official Mark Levinson HQD system.
Stacked Quads, Decca tweeter, 30" Hartly bass, eight ML JC2 Class A amps, ML crossovers, and driven by a giant John Curl modified Studer tape deck. The tape deck used 2" wide, two track tape, running at 30 in per second, and they played second generation Mark Levinson Jazz recordings made by Mark.

They also had the big Dayton X10 gas bag electrostatics, and Harold Beverage tall coffin Electrostatics, with tube amp in the bottom, speakers.

The store went under in the 80's
