tube audio dealer in SF Bay area?


Hello All,
can anyone recommend a good tube audio dealer // showcase in the Bay Area? I am for a Jolida dealer, but anywhere I could go and listen to a bunch of different amps would be great.

Thanks,
brian

Here's two in the San Jose area that are really worth seeing.

Analog Room in San Jose has PremaLuma, Air Tight, BAT(?), Wavestream and four sound rooms with lots of analog gear. Oh, there's lots of records for sale. http://www.theanalogroom.com/

Nick Gowen of True Sound in Campbell carries Audiomat and Audio Note gear. He's also a hell of a tube service technician on most audio gear. http://www.tsound.com/

In SF and Berkeley there's Music Lover's Conrad Johnson and VTL.
Now that's bad showroom service and you don't have to reward them if you're treated that way.

Still if you're looking for specific tube amps brands they carry for a demo- they may have them. They also are generous on home demos.
