We also carry new and used instruments, recording gear (mixers, mics etc), PA gear, home stereo components and much much more! We also offer sound consulting services for anyone looking to economically and effectively install, maintain or idealize professional sound installations (Churches, Night Clubs and so on).

We use recycled products, no VOC paint, our ISP uses wind power to maintain our website, and we're working on an organic garden and outside classroom in our yard.
