From the reviews

Special place for one of a kind items. Owner is a special guy who can get you anything you are looking for. I came in looking for a very rare item that Mike was able to find for me. Customer service is exceptional and highly professional. He buys and sells all over the world. Could not recommend more.

This is the place to go for vintage audio equipment in the city. Mike has it all and has it reasonably priced. You always find something you are looking for here. Great selection and great prices. Found so many CDs, cassettes, and records at both this store and his Perryopolis location.

★★★★★ — Indiana, Aug 2025

So happy to have stumbled on this place. My dog groomer is close by and I was looking to spend some time while he was pampered. What a find!!! Excellent selection of cd's and vintage vinyl albums. Some new but most used in excellent condition.

★★★★★ — Karen, Feb 2024

One of my favorite record stores in Pittsburgh in the Brentwood section of of the City. Open Monday thru Saturday's Noon to 6pm. The owner also has a large warehouse store in Perryopolis Pa which is open on Sundays.
