Suggestions welcome.
Thanks

Not really in Philly, about an hour away in Princeton, NJ, but Princeton Record Exchange is a well known hub for vinyl enthusiasts.

Soundstage direct is in Doylestown . You can browse online and pick up direct

Not sure about records but for gear, there is HiFi House in Abington, Audiolab in Levittown, Quest For Sound in Bristol, and World Wide Stereo in Montgomeryville or Exton I think.

If you are in Center City Philly, Quest For Sound will probably be the easiest to get to off of I95 - Street Road exit to Bristol Pike.

Thanks guys. Great suggestions. I will be near Downington but going into city centre.

Near Downingtown (Newtown Square) is The Voice That Is - a very high end dealer and in Philadelphia you will find David Lewis Audio, another high end dealer. You will need to call ahead to visit either of these dealers. If you make the trek to Doylestown you will also find Siren Records, a small local record store worth a visit if you are in the area.

Have fun!

From Downingtown you're only about a half hour from Wilmington, De and HiFi House and Overture which are maybe 100 yards from each other on Rt. 202. Check out their ads in Stereophile and The Absolute Sound and you'll see the brands they sell.
