By the 1990's many of these retail locations went the way of the dodo. I use to like being able to sit in a room at the store a hear music through the various speakers, and different receivers. In New York, there was the Wiz, J&R and Crazy Eddies to name three. In a few years when I plan on retiring, my wife and I have our place in Istanbul, where my wife is originally from. There are a few audio stores. In fact, there is one which is a ten minute walk from my place.
Where did the rest of you go to buy stereo equipment?
Anyone know what the third image down is?
There was also Sam Goody. I used to by albums there and I kind of remember stereo equipment in those stores.
