In Reply to: Poll: would a store totally devoted to S.E.T. work? posted by MKG on February 25, 2007 at 11:08:30:
Whatever answers you gonna get from non-retailers will be just theory and so much smoke. Why bother?If you want to know, ask a cat like Brian Rovinsky at St. Cecilia Sound Gallery now in Florida, previously in the Bay Area. Brian's SET hi-eff kinda guy and that's what his store originally concentrated on.
Check out his lines now and you'll see he still does that but had to expand. If you e-mail him thru his site (do a google for the URL) you can ask him how his sales percentages break down between "esoteric" tube gear and more "mainstream" stuff.
That'd be a direct reflection on the reality of his market, some hard data from the field. When Don Garber had Fi the store, there was no Chinese tube gear flooding the market, no Audiogo etc. etc -:)
