Similarly, I lived in the city for 20+ years and just recently moved to downtown JC. I keep meaning to make the trek to Brooklyn to check out these places and just not making it there bc I'm lazy. Hit me up if you want to schedule a meet up sometime. I'd love to connect with like-minded audio geeks to check out these newfangled audio bars.
Absolutely, you can maybe even hitch a ride with @thehutch . I also moved out of the city and while I love the money savings my social life is non-existent out here. Would be great to have an excuse to leave the burbs! I'll try to make a thread in the Meets forum for us all to arrange something.
