Concert Sound
2/22/2006- Concert Sound is the modern day 1950's hifi shop. Picture Klipsch La Scala's/Marantz Tubes meet the Jetsons and you will be transported into a high-end hifi store run by Creston Funk. Concert Sound is truly a Central Texas legend, having been in San Antonio from 1981-2001 and now located in downtown Austin, one block south of the new whole foods at 830 W. 3rd. This shop like Whetstone Audio is all about the music. Creston carries what is considered by many "the worlds best hifi", don't believe me??? Go on by and take a listen for yourself. Make sure you call ahead as he is by appointment only, but don't let that scare you away, the sound you will hear will stick with you for a lifetime. While the systems he sells are quite expensive, do not be too quick to dismiss it, since 1981 he has never asked anyone to buy! There are very few places in the world you can go to hear the type of sound being made at Concert Sound.
Also if you are remotely interested in learning more about hifi make sure you check out Concert Sound's "hifi history" page as it contains lots of information on how to have good music reproduction in the home.
Check it out, this is the what the shop looks like at night!
