HiFi Audio Sales Expert for an award-winning residential audio electronics mail order catalog retailer that's been doing business since 1981. Audio Advisor is an official dealer for all of the nearly one hundred brands of stereo products we offer. I enjoy providing my customers with my honest audio advice & expert tips & tricks via phone and email. My suggestions for perfect product pairings of analog & digital stereo components and accesories can be found amongst thousands of residential living spaces to dedicated audiophile-grade listening rooms across the United States. Allow me to transform your listening experience from good to great, or possibly beyond your wildest expectations, whether it's quality ambient zone audio to fill your home with sound...or for focused critical listening sessions in your dedicated listening room, where the vivid holographic soundstage make it seem like the musicians are presently performing live. Reveal the various nuances of the music you didn't even know existed from the original source recording. I can help you achieve a satisfying listening space within your budget to not only hear your favorite music but EXPERIENCE the true emotion of the music that you love for many great years of enjoyment ahead. I am also an eclectic music enthusiast who loves discovering & exploring the underground music scene (local, national, and global), just as much as I enjoy the high-quality stereo gear that we experience our music through. I've been described as "An encyclopedia of underground music knowledge." and I take that as a great compliment. My favorite past time is visiting and exploring the many concert venues and vibrant eclectic live music scenes that Grand Rapids, MI offers as well as around the State of Michigan, plus across the United States. I'm constantly looking to explore new genres of music, both experienced live in-person at a concert and/or on a digital or analog recording.
