Planning audio audition trip to NY/NJ, vendors???


I am planning on burning some winter blues by jumping in the car, leaving NE Ohio and traveling east to Philly, north NJ or NYC to audition some audio gear. I'm looking for everything, CDP's, speakers, amps, etc., for various room sizes, future upgrading, and general audio knowledge/experience etc. I'm looking for your help on some good retailers to visit in these areas, hopefully some vendors that I could have a buying relationship with in the future. Would appreciate your positive experiences.

Most of my stereo came from Toys From The Attic in White Plains.I bought new,used and demo.Every piece I bought was like new.The prices were the best I could find.I always did business directly with Mario,the owner.His staff very pleasant but when I buy I want the top guy to take care of me.Mario helped me break into analog and spent countless hours on the phone with me helping me with set up etc.He even guided me through the complete set up of one table I bought from him over the phone.Of course it was my dime!Anyone thinking of getting into analog or anyone looking to upgrade should give Mario a call.He is a true analog child prodigy :~)MJH049-I would plan to visit White Plains on your trip.Besides an audio shop,Mario and John have one of the best guitar departments in the country.Im sure you would have a good time hanging out.
