Whoops, you're right. Sound Perfection was the place.Yah, Audible In-difference is rather fitting =P The thing is with that store you simply have to *approach* the salespeople. They're the opposite of high-pressure Circuit City guys. They're almost like negative pressure.
But if you consider their credentials (I saw a plaque for best sales of Wilson speakers on the west coast, among others) I would assume their style befits the type of business they do. Do they really have to do a hard sell on several thousand dollar pieces of equipment when they're making whatever sorts of obscene margins on their hundred thousand dollar sales?
They mainly seem kind of bored. If you try to talk to them they're very polite and helpful. It would be nice if they just made a little more eye-contact (but not the type reminiscent of vultures, ahem).
