They treat you like a friend and try to help you find what you're looking for. I never felt like I was just another sale, and I never felt rushed in my playing of their showroom pianos. They are very accomodating to off-hours appointments to meet customer schedules. Questions are answered quickly and communication is top-notch. The technicians and tuners they use and recommend are skilled, friendly, and great to work with as well. We are very lucky to have this great resource of a friendly, knowledgeable piano retailer conveniently located in southwestern Ohio. I highly recommend BHA as a reputable business. Bob and his team stand behind the pianos they sell, and they have great customer service. I have purchased from BHA in the past, will purchase from them in the future, and have recommended them to friends. Make BHA your first and last stop in your piano search!

I think they also order some things for customers. You'll have to ask details on that. I have no specifics. The building is in Historic Downtown Hamilton.

I've stopped in Sound Force a few times over the years and experienced a significant issue today. I…read morehad a gig which was going to require a direct box today. I've not had a need for one yet but knew it was a good investment. Normally, I order from Sweetwater, but I needed the box immediately as a last minute purchase. First, their hours on Saturday are from 11-2. I arrived at 1:40. On the front door was a sign which said please call this number to enter which was strange and inconvenient to me. I entered and someone greeted me, I assume one of the owners. I heard his voice, but he was not visible until I walked back to the show floor where he was sitting at a desk. He didn't get up which was somewhat unprofessional to me. I asked him to show me the passive direct boxes which he was very knowledgeable about his various models. I was set on purchasing a stereo LTI-1 Rapco Horizon. It was priced at $109.95. I asked to see some XLR cables (30 ft. Rapco Horizons priced at $21.99 each) and a RCA male to 1/8 inch ($8.99) cable for the box. A quick check on my phone identified the same model box for $95 and the cables for $18.84 a piece. A difference of $21.25. I asked for a price break of $5-$10 which I thought was more than fair. He said, "No I gotta be there." He provided me a different option for mono which was cheaper, but based off of our conversation, he knew I wanted stereo and was in a bind. I said let me think about it for a minute. He walked away and came back about 3 minutes later. It was now 2:00 on the dot and said well were closed now. Again since I was in a bind, I went ahead and made the purchase. He came across very arrogant. On my way out, I explained his behavior was a bit unprofessional for me spending $175 (after tax). He stated well me and the guys (which there was only one) have been here all day so we've got to go. I said, "You're only open for three hours today." He then continued by saying they worked long hours all week (normal hours are from 12-6) - not long in my book. When I go to a non-corporate business my expectation is for all the employees to have a little more finesse with their overall communication and not try to rush me out the moment the second hand hits 2:00. I won't be back. The arrogant attitude he had was more than enough to write this review. I was ok with the prices after considering it was small business, but was really put off by him rushing me out. If I would have had more time, I would have went somewhere else.
