There are many places to get hi-fi audio systems in Manila, but this shop on the fourth floor of Shangri-La mall is probably my favorite. Mainly because of two brands that they carry.
Firstly, they're the only distributor of Adam equipment in Manila. The German brand is one of the top, top names in hi-fi audio and music production due to its quality and sonic capabilities. My main gig is audio production for commercials and I've been used to creating music on Adam equipment abroad, so this place the only shop in the city that I could purchase a pair of the fabled Adam A7X studio monitors. They're expensive, but they're OMG SO WORTH IT.
Second, they carry Focals. In Manila, Focal is known for great car audio systems but not much else. Guys, Focal is SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT. This French brand has fantastic home audio systems as well as studio-quality monitors and headphones. They will cost you an arm and a leg as well, but if you have the cash and/or you're a beatmaker wanting the best of the best, you better get on the Focal train (and Adam, don't forget). read more
