An Audiophile's Buyer Guide 2023 And Crazy Eddie's Revisited


Listen Later

An interview with Anthony Chiarella of Specialty Sound & Vision and our 2023 Buyer's Guide Special. Scot, Marc and Brian go over some of the best and brightest audio products reviewed and heard for the upcoming year. Broken out into 12 categories, the buyer's guide provides some insight into the season's best audiophile products along with some general hifi banter and acoustic tips. 

The show also features a surprising follow up to our S8E5 Halloween special with Anthony who actually worked at Crazy Eddie's retail chain in New Jersey from 1977-1981, before it was dissolved due to Eddie Antar's criminal prosecution. He shares personal stories from that time and further explores the subject with his first hand experience on the sales floor.
