J & R Music World, Wisconsin Discount Stereo

Whole Earth Review, Winter, 1986 by Saul Feldman

H & R Music World Wisconsin Discount Stereo

The two cheapest mail orders sources. Unlike most mail order consumer electronics stores, J & R offers three comprehensive catalogs -- on computers, stereos, and videotapes. Between them you'll find home security devices, musical keyboards, telephones, blank tapes, copiers, watches, and shavers. Wisconsin Discount Stereo is often less expensive but has no catalog. For both, first visit on electronics store near you and get familiar with the features -- then compare prices and shop mail order via their 800 number.
