I am down I would love to compared notes and talk music with someone. I am only 27 and when I go into high end audio stores I can't even get the time of day (so annoying). What suburb do you live in?
I am in Northbrook.
I agree that most high end audio stores suck. There is one happy exception I know of, and it's not far from where you are - Van L Speakerworks. It is a small store front on Western Avenue just south of Peterson on the north side.
John, the owner, is an amazing guy, not pretentious at all. The speakers he builds are actually pretty good IMHO though there is a lot of competition at the price range.
When I first met him I just moved here and could hardly speak any English (not that it changed much, but nevertheless ). Even though it was obvious I am not in a position to buy anything, he would let me spend hours listening to music in his showroom.
