Dallas or Texas-based audio companies

@millercarbon when you say podiums I'm guessing you mean Seismic podiums?  At first I thought you just meant raised up off the floor.

Townshend Podiums. Seismic Podiums I guess they are called officially. What I use. https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/8367 Tried a lot of other stuff, nothing even comes close. Equivalent to a significant component upgrade. One guy, might have been ozzy, had Iso-Acoustics Gaia, went to Podiums, said it was a significant upgrade. Well it should be for the price differential! lol! See the recent reviews.

Just bought some amps from D-Sonic who are in Texas.

I'll second Galen Carol audio, bought many things from him and got great deals.
