Studios
Some of my old, excuse me, veteran, customers have been noticing that Audio Emporium is literally bursting at the seams with inventory these days. As they have visited they’ve commented on how rare it is to see TONS of nice audio gear in stock and on display to audition. They keep telling me to brag up the assortment and even list, by…

Please be sure you read this while lying down in bed. If not, you’ll likely fall over and sustain a concussion as you read some of the ridiculous pricing and foolish rankings/omissions….
