Yep, that's the place...

...I discovered the Dalquist DQ-10s at the nearby Federated Stereo Store while on a couple of month speaker shopping odessey. That find pushed me into high end.

Then I found Havens and Hardesty and used to hang out there.

Bought their first DQLP-1 electronic crossover.

Heard the Dayton Wright XG-10s there along with lots of new equipment and music.

Hardesty used Boz Scaggs' "Harbour Lights" from "Silk Degrees" to compare equipment. I heard him compare the Dayton Wright Dreadnaught with a new ARC amp. After listening to this cut, he declared the ARC amp state-of-the-art.

They also had the new B & W speaker, the DM-7, their first to use offset drivers to line up the voice coils (like the DQ-10). It looked like a pregnant robot but Hardesty liked them and bought a pair.
