Visiting audio stores?


This is probably the last concern on many people's minds, so I'm raising this just in case anyone feels like relaying their experience.

I've become pretty cautious about where I go and why. So, for me, I'm not going to any audio stores to listen to gear, out of caution about the virus. I do feel concern for these stores and how it will impact them. Are folks going? Anyone running an audio store who wants to comment? How are you coping? Are you changing any policies or running any more sales online? Changes in trial periods to help more people try out gear remotely?

Again, this is a minor concern given the larger dimensions of this virus situation, but I thought I'd reach out with a question.

dseltz,

Thanks for sharing. Interestingly, he does not mention heart symptoms at all.
its not a large group place you can keep your space from others and if you don't feel safe stay home wait until the air clears you will still be saving up the money and be able to go a step or two higher in the line you were saving for
After looking at the airports, on the computer, yesterday and today......very dense crowd for that much time together.  And they are going back to all parts of the country for.... dispersal.  I'll refer you to the 'Infected Mushrooms' CD, the song 'U R so F***ed'.  Played it at a buddy's house, him and his wife loved the cd.  The cd stayed with them.  Most people are going to survive, we will all be touched by this virus.  I am not sure if my girlfriend and self will be so lucky.  At 70, life has been good to me.  Next week, I go to radiation consultation, then 6 weeks of voice box treatment for stage one cancer.  I remain optimistic, despite my pessimistic self.
@dwmaggie....Good luck with the rad consult....positive 'tude beats the alternative, even if...;)

Noticed one of the pros' being interviewed on CNN wearing fabric gloves, which may help if you just Have to touch things.....and who doesn't....
I'm trying to get into the habit whenever I'm out 'n about, which is getting turned down to a minimum.
I'm 68 with a TAVR, taking blood thinners.  Thinking of getting a T-shirt with a bulls' eye on both F & R....or "Zombie In Training"...

May as well have a sense of humor about it all, it may make the whole situation a tad more tolerable...*shrug*

Anyway....invest in 'soap' stocks.....remember what happened to those who bought stocks in rolling paper makers....;)
(Send me 1% for that tip, please. *S*)

Good variable factors, y'all...
