Sevenoaks was very disappointing

markq (Mostly Harmless) posted this on Tuesday, 26th June 2001, 15:43

Hi

After noting all the mentions on this site about, richer sounds & seven oaks. i decided to seek them out last saturday and go have a look for myself.
I went to the one in nottingham finding richer sounds first, (- quite a lot smaller than i thought but they were very helpful and have some great things, I will be going back to test an amp and speakers).)

I then went across the road to sevenoaks and was very disappointed, they had a much bigger store, but i am surprised if they sold anything all day. I went on saturday and richer sounds was packed, not one customer was in sevenoaks, i was in there for about 4 minutes and i felt so uncomfortable i had to get out.

I also thought it looked quite expensive and surprised people here go there [ not that i think you guys are cheap skates or anything :-) ]

The reason for my post really is can anyone recommend other nationwide shops (or in nottingham) more like richersounds, rather than sevenoaks. I am looking for a full system.

thanks in advance

Give Superfi a whirl, just down the road from Selectadisc (Market Street). Usually a bargain or two to be had in there, although it`s never that busy for some odd reason.

May also be worthwhile going to the Sony Centre on Mansfield Road as well - they currently have a sale on, so you may get a clearance line bargain there.

Cheers clayts. I have just moved down here so your advice is very much appreciated I will get my map out and go check out selectadisc.

Found the Sony Shop, unfortunately sony currently dont have anything of interest, they currently only have one model of 36" tv and there dvd players don`t seem worth looking at imo, I guess i might go back and see what amps they have.

Does anyone recommend an amp or preferably a receiver for a good price, i.e. preferably under £200, but i am coming round to the idea i may have to pay slightly more than £200. I basically want to couple it with some Eltax speakers from richersounds, any recommendations appreciated

TIA
