I never did business with them though. In those days I only ever went to HiFi Buys, some place on Pharr Rd with a name I can't remember and Melton's HiFi on Buford Hwy.
I confess; I've actually bought from MSS, except he just called himself the Audio Pimp at the time - I probably got lucky (and I won't go down that road again).

Can't remember now if they were on Pharr Road or Paces Ferry. But they had some great stuff.

  My memory is equally cloudy, but you have both nailed in down for me - couldn't remember the name of the place and got the street name wrong. Time flies and it's been over 30 years since I left Atlanta. I just remember hanging out in that store and wishing my pockets were deeper.
  
  Gee, remember Oz record store? I met a number of really nice musicians in that store.

    do remember Peaches! It was located just south of Peachtree Battle and had an incredible classical section including all the good imports like EMI (not Angel) and Decca.

  just a couple blocks down from the back of Hi-Fi Buys. Kramer was the original Bozak, Crown and Mac dealer and hosted several clinics. He later sold Mark Levinson.
