Cool HiFi & Vinyl Record Shops

Hifi should be fun!

We like cool stereo shops. We really love cool vinyl record shops! A good shop is a place that has knowledgable and friendly staff that treat you as a valued customer, even if you don’t buy anything. Cool shops come in a variety of sizes and flavors, with a focus on vintage, modern, or both. You know when you are in a cool HiFi shop because it’s not easy to leave. You just loose track of time. Cool HiFi & Vinyl Record Shops are not easy to find, and when you do find them, it’s not a bad idea to support them with your business.

Record Town

Fort Worth, Texas USA

Fort Worth’s iconic music store since 1957, providing music lovers the best in new and vintage vinyl. Record Town is a cultural landmark and historic treasure deeply rooted in Fort Worth’s rich music heritage.

Located in the DFW area where I grew up, this cool record shop has a fantastic assortment of vinyl conservatively graded. In fact, I found that most VG+ albums were more like Excellent or Near Mint.

Archer Hi-Fi

Falls Church, Virgina USA

Located in the D.C. area, this cool shop has a good mix of old and new. No matter your budget or taste, there is enough audio eye candy to enjoy, it might be a few hours before you realize you were supposed to be home an hour ago. Part of what makes this shop a “must visit” when you are in town, is they have a good mix of old and new, as well as buy and consign gear. They have an on-site repair and service department. They also carry vinyl and accessories. You could walk out of this shop with a complete system and music.
