A high-end adventure in San Francisco
A hi-fi shop can be the start of a long listening habit. Beneath Steve Guttenberg’s “A high-end adventure in San Francisco,” one viewer remembers hearing “The Girl from Ipanema” through JMR speakers and a tube amp there, describing it as the beginning of their audiophile journey.
Guttenberg’s only new upload takes him to AudioVison SF to explore its extensive high-end selection. It has reached roughly 21,000 views and is the channel’s busiest video right now. The conversation includes appreciation for Randolph’s explanations, memories of equipment purchases and a request for a second visit with more time for the gear.
The older “KLIPSCH Rebellion review: Full of surprises” remains active too, having passed 120,000 views. Its subject belongs to Klipsch’s Heritage line, designed and made in Hope, Arkansas. “Robert's Viewer System of the Day!” adds a more personal stop, visiting a fellow Brooklynite’s setup.
Subscribers held steady, while current daily viewing is less than half its usual pace. Nearby in technology, Wire & Plug had a substantial week of views and subscriber growth. Guttenberg’s week was smaller and more focused: one shop visit, with listeners bringing their own histories to the discussion.

I visited the shop in the furniture store where I heard JMR Trentes powered by a tube amp. The song was Girl from Ipanema. I started my audiophile journey through them. Thanks.
