Jack is in his 80s and is a great guy. He and Gun Parts on the east coast are the two prime parts dealers in the country. The environment you encountered was probably due to friction that developed in the retail store. Jack's daughter Nancy and his son-in-law Marty ran things. They recently divorced. Its moot anyhow as the retail operation is now closed.
First Stop is the store you alluded to and yes, they are great folks to deal with.

Speaker tastes are very personal, perhaps more so than headphones. Finding a brand or model that grabs you and then being able to acquire and enjoy them is one of life's great pleasures. It would seem that we've both been blessed.
Mirrors? I thought they were for ceilings? LOL
