The Difference

When we opened in 1967, our objectives were clear: carry the finest equipment; offer liberal and straightforward policies; be big enough to provide extensive services and competitive prices but small enough to know our customers. Since 1967, audio and video technologies have made great strides, our industry has been transformed, and we have championed these advances. Through it all, however, the human factor has remained constant. Our customers have not become “digitized” and neither has our way of doing business. Whether you are purchasing a cost-no-object whole-house audio/video system, or simply a table radio, we continue to follow our guiding principles.

2013 Seminar Series Announced

We are very excited to announce our Seminar Series for 2013. This year will feature: RIch Maez from Boulder Amplifiers who will introduce products from the new 2100 Series, Peter McGrath from WIlson Audio, who will introduce the new Alexia loudspeaker, Allan Haggar from Sumkio who will discuss REL subwoofers and our very own Scott Soloway who will keep you current on new audio and video technology. Of course, no Seminar Series would be complete without our annual tour of the WFMT studios led by Rich Warren. Click here to register for the 2013 Seminar Series.
