IN THE PRESENCE OF INSPIRATION

 

As the only Allnic dealer in the US currently, I also want to say thank you to my colleagues, North American Allnic Distributor David Beetles of Hammertone Audio and Don Corby of Corby’s Audio, both in Canada. Both these gents have helped me in my journey from an audiophile that discovered a stereo equipment manufacturer of tremendous quality and value, Allnic, inspiring me to become an Allnic dealer.

​

David is the epitome of a distributor that truly makes a difference, supporting not only Allnic Audio, the manufacturer he represents, but also Allnic retailers such as myself and Don Corby – and our customers - in myriad ways. David has many, many years’ experience providing exemplary customer service and has taught me far more than I could have learned alone in the years I have been at this. Of most importance is his consistent demonstration of a powerful motivation to provide gear that produces incredible sound quality and brings real improvement to audiophiles’ quality of life. No matter what happens, what the issue, and pretty much what time of day or night(!), David is there to help the customer and his retailers to achieve satisfaction. He is, simply, a constant source of information and inspiration.

​

With 30 years in the industry, Don Corby founded what many in the Toronto region simply refer to as Corby’s - because it’s that CHILL!  He is as open as David to helping out – and he has the same kind of enviable reputation among audiophiles in eastern Canada that David has across Canada and the US. Don just expanded his “bricks and mortar” shop and also hosted a pre-Christmas “shop-warming” that was a great success, even in the face of covid restrictions - two accomplishments pretty rare in 2021 and testaments to his dedication to customers. The only “want” to remain for the shop - a liquor license! I have learned a ton from Don over the years. To his credit, he created and offers a carbon fiber platter mat with wonderful dampening benefits that, in summation, offers clarity! Those who find themselves in the region, pay him a visit! 

 - Highly recommended.

 

Working with these two bright and customer-satisfaction dedicated individuals has been a great pleasure. They’re rather like two Santas – except working all year round to deliver – and they aren’t concerned if you’ve been naughty! ;-)

 

Don, David, and I are about solutions for long-term investment. We love to hear the qualities you love about your system and the goals you are trying to achieve. Our established network maintains a healthy stock of new, demo and premier trade-in Allnic electronics and cables. The trade-ins often sell fast, and we do keep a short list of customers who desire something specific.
