I know that there are many people interested in music in this wonderful city of distraction! Let's hear from you and enhance our experience together. To me, this is a sure bet!
O.K. pmrodier, I guess I'll be the second member in Vegas, after all, this is a very elite club :). I live on the east side, Sunrise mountain area. My systems mid-fi, but I do love squeezing the most out of it for 2 channel music and 5.1 HT.
Baxel, I glad you gave PHE a thumbs up, I just found them on the internet looking for some B&W's. I've lived here for 9 years and am now just find out about the true higher end stores around here.I'm looking into getting the DM 604 S3 or the DM 603 S3. never heard B&W 's before but I like the look. Have you found any place that sells cables, other then Monster locally? The only places I looked so far are the major retail stores, which thats about all they carry. I'd love to be able to run to the store and pick up some Audioquest or Straightwire, or Nordost, anything other then Monster cable or Acoustic Research.
Hey Pmrodier, How did the in home demo go? I'm sorry I couldn't make it. All work and no play makes rick a dull boy. I was lucky enough to get one day in at the CES. The only bad thing about the CES is it leaves you feeling a little depressed about your system after seeing all the really high end gear.
Hey everybody, Are there any Vandersteen dealers in Vagas? I thought there was one once, but when I checked the Vandy site there was nothing for NV. :( If not has any one bought them over the internet from an e-tailer?, I'm not really looking at buying from e-bay or places like that, just locally or from a reputable e-tailer. The casino's have been good to me lately, so before I put it all back, I thought, time to upgrade my speakers. :)
Hi everyone, just checking to see how everyone's doing and to see if anyone's done any upgrades. Over the next couple of month's I'll be upgrading the TV to a Samsung DLP. Not sure what size yet. Speakers will be either the Vandy 2ce sig's or VSA VR-2'S. Alot depends on the wife. Yes, the casino god's have choosen to smile on me again after keeping me in "Can not win" purgatory. :)
Hello Gabbea007, Welcome to the Las vegas Audiogon chapeter.:) As you can see we don't post here much, but it's always good to hear from from some one. An audiophile society here in Vegas? I can't even find a really high end audio shop here, :( Not that I could afford them., but it would be nice to here some really high end rig's to at least have a sound reference to. PM, Sorry to hear you had to leave, hope everythings going ok with your dad. Just thinking about living in NY this time of year made me go put on a coat:) The good thing I guess is there are alot more high end dealers in NY then in vegas. Drop a line every now and then to let us know what you've found.
Baxel is correct, there are two stores there on charleston. Audio Experts is owned by Bobby, while Vincent stereo is owned by vincent.They split up a while ago and just split the store in half. Bobby always has some high end tube gear in his store, so I'm pretty sure he would be able to test them.
You would think in a city built on excess, there would be more high end shop's in Vegas. I've lived here for 13 yrs and am disappointed with what we have here. Premier and Abbott's, if there still around are probably the closest to high end stuff we have in Vegas. You also might want to look at some of the online manufactures like Outlaw and Emotiva. You'll save a couple of hundred, which could be put towards speakers or cables.
