Audio Classics is 2 hours and 45 minutes for my home in the east side of Rochester. It would probably take you 4 hours to get to Audio Classics. Can you drop off some wings from Duff's if I meet you at the thruway? Hot with extra blue cheese.
Seriously though, everyone needs to go to Audio Classics just to see the volume of vintage Mac gear shipping to Japan. They also get tourists from Japan coming through on tour busses. The place is impressive from that aspect. It's not the most impressive place to audition gear though. This is across the river from Binghamton (5 minutes) and the college is the big draw.

Make a mini vacation of it by dropping your amp off and cruising down to the mid Hudson Valley for a tour of FDR's house and the first presidential library on the premises. Then have dinner at the culinary institute. Or, drop your gear off and drive home traveling up the wide side of Cayuga Lake and stop by the 14 wineries and several micro breweries. You could have lunch in Ithaca and stop by the several gorges and view some amazing waterfalls. Very very beautiful drive.
