    I am contemplating a high dollar purchase (>5K) with Music Direct and have never purchased anything from them.

    This purchase is for new speakers, shipping to me in Colorado.

    Any history with MD?

    I have had nothing but excellent service with this company. They will take the time before the sale to make sure you get what you are really looking for. I always recommend using a local store if you can. But if that option is not there or if they don't carry what you want, then MD is a great option.

    Hint: for large purchases, they may be willing to offer a discount if you order over the phone. Can't hurt to ask.

    I have received A+ service from them. Bought my VPI Classic and VPI 16.5 from them as well as various LP's over the years.

    Excellent, thanks for the responses.
    I always support local business first, however for this purchase I need to order from them as no local shop carries these speakers.

    Out comes the credit card.....

    For the voyeurs here, what are you buying? $5k gets some very nice speakers!

    I live in the Chicago suburbs and have been to their warehouse in the city. Nothing to worry about. I bought a Simaudio preamp from them. Ended up returning it a week later without even a hint of trouble. Great company!

    +1 to all the enthusiastic support of Music Direct. Great guys, and very helpful when making decisions. I have had to use their generous return policy on a couple of occasions and it was a breeze. They were very understanding about things not working out.

    And for those without vinyl set-up help where you live, Chris can be a fabulous help if you are buying a TT, cart, etc from them.

    No large purchases but they even stood behind a bad CD purchase years ago. Highly recommended.

    No issues here, ran into a problem with my VPI record cleaning machine and they handled the replacement in a first class manner, great customer service.

    I've made several small dollar purchases, ordering either by phone or their website. Everything worked out fine each time. Highly recommended.

    I've been buying from them for about 7 years and have had nothing but great experiences. They really are outstanding to deal with whether buying music, equipment and accessories. You may want to wait a few days to place an order; they usually have a 10% off coupon around each holiday.
     
  25. Hint: good advice.
