Thank You for the NOLA update. Good to see a few Audio shops operating post-Katrina. Happy New Year!
Happy Listening!

Any of you guys have any updates on Jay Valentino or Audio Resource? Have any new operations opened up in the N.O. / B.R area in 2015? Keep me posted & Happy Listening! |
Good Day Audiolabyrinth-
I will try to get you the info on the MBL dealer/ retailer as soon as possible. I know he is in Mobile and operates out of his personal residence. He set up shop (no pun) this year.
Tell me more about your gear and the place(s) you purchase it. Happy Listening! |
Joe-
I will second Wilson Audio and add Valentino Home Entertainment in Baton Rouge (about an hour drive from N.O.)
Keep us posted during and after your trip! |
All-
I recently read about Jay Valentino closing shop (no pun) in Baton Rogue LA. Can any of you guys in the New Orleans/ Baton Rouge area confirm.
If this is true, it would be ashame.
I feel that he had a better operation in the old location, Metairie. Keep me posted. |
Thanks! for sharing All.
Living in Alabama, we have never had the great representation of quality hifi/video gear, other than the chain stores. I predict that Jay will make a comeback, it is going to be interesting. Stay Tuned! |
Right On! audiolabyrinth. I grew up on the Eastern Shore and now have a home in Prattville AL. My family is still in the Mobile area.
I have been to look & Listen several times, I was there upon the open house. Jeff (owner) had a better business when he operated Custom Audio mid-90's. This guy is a poor businessman, as he has the knowledge and experience to own 'the' premiere home audio shop in the entire gulf coast- but does not.
I have never understood his position?
Happy Listening. |
Good Day Audiolabyrinth-
no I never saw/heard those speakers. Interesting though, Jeff has been in the business for a long time. I am sure he has knowledge of many things, representing some many brands over the years. He could easily have an operation like Wilson Audio in N.O.
There is another guy that has opened shop (no pun) in Mobile and represents MBL gear.
Finally, is Fidler HiFi doing anything new?
Happy Listening. |
Thank You! Audiolabyrinth.
you have some very nice gear. I am still working on getting you that info- I will need additional time.
Happy Listening! |
Very nice! audiolabyrinth.
there is a plethora of used gear out there at excellent prices. I never buy new. I buy used or demo, better way to spend my hard-earned $$$$. Happy Listening. |
Much Thanks! for the kind words, Audiolabyrinth.
Actually, I am in a period of rebuilding my system. As luck would have it, I travel for a living, especially to Texas & North Carolina. this life of travel affords me the opportunity to visit dealer/retailers that we do not have in Alabama. And yes, we can most certainly be friends. fantja at g mail dot com is where I can be reached anytime.
Additionally, my travels allows me to hear gear abroad to cuts down my short-list for buying gear/speakers.
Happy Listening! JA |
Not at all Audiolabyrinth. I look forward to talking/meeting you some time. Let me know if you need anything/ have questions about gear or music. Happy Listening! |
Good Day Audiolabyrinth,
I came across the info for the guy in Mobile offering MBL gear. Check out engulf audio. He operated this business out of his home. There is a website- google it. Let me know your thoughts. Happy Listening! |
Guys-
does anyone have an update on Jay Valentino or Audio Resource?
I would like to know what he is doing now? Keep me posted & happy listening! -JA |
Thank You! Acresverde-
I knew that JV had moved shop to BR. Back in the Spring I had a short-visit. JV was not there that particular day. Sometime between & now it has closed (alleged). Trying to find out JV's next move. I did prefer the shop in Metaire. Happy Listening!!! |
As we end 2015 and get ready to receive 2016, are there any updates on this thread? Merry Christmas & Happy New Year. |
|
Any new updates on Jay Valentino of Valentino Home Entertainment (VHE) in Baton Rogue? |
I sure miss Jay- audiotomb.
I concur that Wilson Audio is a great place as well. Thanks!
|
Happy New Year!
Thanks! for the update.
|
|
Thanks! for sharing- Dave. It would appear that Wilson is the best game in town at this juncture. Does anyone have an update on Jay Valentino?
Wherever he is now, I hope he is still into Audio. |
