    I went to soundhounds a month or so ago... it was pretty busy. I took a look at all the gear they had there... the Magnum Dynalab Receiver, and some of the MF stuff. Listened to the AN system in the main room there too. Nice place. Didn't really audition anything since i wasn't ready to make a purchase... kinda wanted that AN Tuner, but the guy said the Rotel one was better. You buy all your stuff at Soundhounds?
    Well yes because there really isn't anything here for me to get. I tried Blue Door Audio in Parksville but not the stuff I like.

    The AN Tuner has been discontinued - not everything they make is good - the AX One speaker was not spectacular. But they have the most gear - however you have to hane an idea as to what you want to listen to before you go so they can set it up - they have a lot of stuff to move around just to get at the stuff.

    Yeah.. i buy a lot of my stuff online, and do the usual shuffle of changing/upgrading while i try and figure out what i want. I've wanted to check out the place in Parksville.. What lines do they carry?

    The main reason for wanting the AN Tuner was I guess the fact that it had a tube output stage. But i've heard that British tuners in general are quite poor. From what the guy said, unless you want to purchase the Demo peice, they usually have to order one in for you because they don't keep everything in stock in addition to the demo... so sometimes they give u the demo to keep while you wait for your stuff.. that would be a problem if buying from Nanaimo cuz then u gotta make 2 trips.
