88.0. "Tweeter selection waning..." by PYRITE::WEAVER () Mon Feb 18 1985 18:27

I visited the Tweeter in Framingham Sunday only to discover that
their selection has diminished quite a bit.  The store manager
said that Tweeter was just into them to help establish the market,
and now that availability of the media is taking hold, that Tweeter
won't be pushing the CD titles as much (taken to mean: They want to
sell hardware, not software.  Sounds like another company I know!).
It looked like they were discontinuing WEA titles from the stock
they had, but they had most of the Windham Hill and Sheffield titles.
I suspect that they will probably leave the pop to the Lechmere's
and Strawberries and concentrate more on less available jazz and
classical labels (some day I imagine we will be back to the old days
of 20 pop titles to every classical and 10 classical to every jazz).

I agree, 

I was at the Burlington Tweeter. But, they told me that Tweeter had the biggest
selection. I told them they were full of what makes the grass grow green. They
only carry a few jazz, hardly any pop, and they do have an extensive classical
selection, but they are not anywhere near anybody else.

The best pop I have seen yet is Rockin' Mania in Framingham.

The best classical is Electric Gramaphone

The best Jazz (my opinion) is the Coop in Harvard Square.

Any way,

Tweeter is the pits, including their audio prices.
