"Two things immediately come to mind when walking through the door of Audio High in Mountain View, California: this is a serious hi-fi store, and mascot Fiona (an adorable soft-coated wheaten terrier) has a very comfy gig.  With many of audio and video’s best brands on display to experience, this store feels like the glory days of hi-fi retailing, with a 21st Century twist.

"As you walk into the main showroom, the Sooloos music server is front and center, with an AVID Acutus turntable nearby. There are multiple amplification and speaker choices from KEF, Meridian, Chord, Burmester and Peak Consult, just to name a few brands.  And this is a big room, so you can actually sit down and experience these components in a lifelike environment.  Audio High is open Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. – 7 p.m., but as owner Michael Silver says, “A lot of our business is by appointment and from repeat customers.”..."
