Earlier in the week, I shared information about the selling of our Akron store inventory. Since then, I've received calls and messages about the future of the Wooster store. So, let me CLARIFY. --- First, though we have had offers to buy the Wooster store, we have no current plans of selling it. It's exploding with business (that's why a few business guys wanna buy it, I'm sure) and we plan on being here to help it continue to grow. --- Next, though our main focus will be on the vintage McINTOSH market, we will also sell reel-to-reel tape machines and floor model consoles. These 3 areas of vintage equipment are our niche. Of course, we will always have a little bit of other brands and pieces of audio gear, as well. --- Then, I've been asked if we are still going to continue with repairs. Absolutely! We currently have 7 technicians who we keep extremely busy with servicing/restoring all kinds of vintage audio equipment. --- Last, I've been asked about opening up a WOOSTER VINTAGE AUDIO store in other cities and states. Though I'm impressed with the confidence people have in our WVA team and what we've built, we have no desire to open stores in other locations. We've learned, with what we do, it's not necessary. With some stores or companies, growth only comes by expansion, meaning more stores etc. We've learned that, with what we do, one location is good enough. Customers will travel to us... our one store. This has been proven. Customers come to us from all over Ohio, and from all over the USA. --- I hope this post CLAIFYS some things. As always, we thank you for your support! -Brian
