Know that one. All 3 dealers I used to frequent are gone. only one made it through the 2008 crash and they flubbed later. What is left is the high society North Suburban area in our "metro Columbus" where the current audio salons are - nearly an hour out of town. The near downtown University district home to OSU was the center of audiophile activity 20+ years ago with 3 dealers and a dedicated vintage shop. Millenials don't live in the "posh" suburbs but near downtown, and those who do live in the high end burbs are stranded in their parent's basements.
The demographics of the top burbs are very boomer and many would have downsized had their basements not been occupied by student loan broke underemployed kids- about just under 40% of millenials. Downsizing is not really in the cards for these folks and many would not retire even if they could afford to.
