General Asylum General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories. |

A current short thread in the CRITICS corner reminded me how useful it would be to have a list of dealerships around the world that come highly recommended by audiophiles for service, know-how, selection and people skills (i.e. no intimidation, no high-pressure sales but the kind of good service you'd feel comfortable recommending to friends and family members).Please, no "all dealers suck" rants. Yes, there's bad eggs in any business or field but this solicitation for recos is specifically about the GOOD dealers you've frequented and can recommend.
My hope is that with your help and AA's international audience, we can come up with a shortlist I can publish on my site. Once something's up, more people will see it and perhaps add their own recos so this could be an ongoing process of building a little informal data base.
May I count on your help?
Cheers.
