Great article, I especially like what you had to say in the last paragraph.
Voting for this year's Best Of Readers' Poll is over.
CD heaven is the best! Great selection, really helpful staff and excellent deals!! By far the best place for CD's, vinyl, DVD's and more!
I appreciate the personal atmosphere of CD Heaven. The staff is always available and provide service with a smile.
The best store in south Florida is CD Trader not CD Heaven.Cd traders prices are at least 10% lower than cd heaven,and their dvd section is unmatched.They also have great deals on Ipods.The Average price for a cd at cd trader is %5.99.At for doubles $11.99.And those are not bargain type cds!!Trust me try cd trader..
Hello cd heaven! I actually live in Europe, and one of my favourite hobbies is to track down cd stores wherever I go, and I've been to many. Cd heaven sure is a good one: good prices, good selection of prog/ AOR/ classic rock and other r'n'b and Jazz. The selection is not huge, but there is plenty to get from the store or to order at the counter. Very friendly. Best cd store in Fort Lauderdale.
Reggae N Things in Coral Springs for any cutting edge Reggae/rasta/Caribbean beats www.ReggaeNThings.com
Yay CD Heaven!!!
Cd Heaven in Tamarac offers the best selection of hard to find & imported music dvds & cds. They are willing to trade or buy cds, dvds or any collectibles. If they don't have it in stock, they will find it for you @ the best price. I always recommend them to anyone looking for something hard to find.
OK, how many of these people are on the CD Heaven payroll... there's no fricken way that piece of crap store has the best selection, you guys are out of your mind if you're not fakes.
CD Heaven in Tamarac, FL is my favorite music store for CDs, DVDs and vinlys. Not only do you have the best selection, but the best prices as well. The staff, and especially the owner, are well versed in the music industry. They are courteous and anxious to help with your every music questions. One of the very few full service music stores left in business.
CD Heaven in Tamarac, FL is my favorite music store. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable about new as well as old CD's and recordsYou get a warm greeting too (which you don't get elsewhere). They have a good selection and you can even exchange your old CD's for new ones. They get my vote!
This is a great little store with a big selection,and helpful staff. They have a good selection of old records and new cd's . They also have fantastic selection of tee shirts . Love this store .
CD Heaven is the best.
Best store in Ft. Lauderdale - Doc Reno BIG 1059
Great service and great prices at CD Heaven. Bruce is the most knowledgeable person about music I've ever met. It's worth the drive to Tamarac just to meet Bruce and share some of his expertise, as well as finding items you can't get anywhere else.
CD Heaven located in Tamarac is without question a gem of a music store. It is the best place in South Florida to buy, sell, or trade in CD's, DVD's or Vinyls. Bruce the owner is a radio personality who really knows music and will always give you excellent personal service. Prices are very reasonable with a great inventory of music (including vinyls), movies, T-shirts, Beatles memorabilia, etc. As an independent music store, it is superior and certainly has my vote.
CD Heaven is awesome. Great selection of music and movies. A lot of stuff you can't find anywhere else. They also have a lot of Beatles memorabilia. Love the t-shirts.
CD Heaven all the way!
Great titles. Good service. Very reasonable prices. The best part of going to CD Heaven is the unusual and obscure titles you find there. The perfect store for an audio nut like me. The best!
Yes, CD Heaven is the best.
No doubt, CD Heaven!
I can't think of a better place to go when you have $20 burning a hole in my pocket. For $8 you are guaranteed your choice of a long sought after obscure gem, an old lost favorite or a brand new release. Add to that vinyl, DVD's and the best bargain bin in town and a cool knowledgeable staff and you can't go wrong. Long live independent music stores!
When we came across CD Heaven last year we were indeed in heaven. Lots of everything. I've fleshed out my collection of several groups with CDs and concert DVDs and picked up more than a few movie DVDs I never thought I would. If you don't know if you'll like a CD you can listen to it - the player even has fast forward, not just next track, to get a good feel for the album. We keep coming back. It's not a good week without a visit to CD Heaven in Tamarac.
I can't imagine a better store than Bruce's CD Heaven! Thanks for everything!
Great store for those that love music. CD's, albums, DVD's, concert dvd,s cool shirts and other stuff for the casual music fan or music junkie. Not only does the staff know all about the music, they too are big fans! I always find "hard to find" items in the store. I highly recommend CD Heaven for all your music needs. Also say hi to Bruce, you may remember him from Peaches Records and Tapes in the '70's!
Bruce works double time to get you whatever you could want. He knows just about everything when it comes to music. CD Heaven is the place to go for all you want and need!!
My husband and I love CD Heaven, they have a great range of vinyl, cd's and really unusual DVD's as well as collectibles. We always find something great here! Bruce is a lovely chap and always willing to source something if he doesn't have it in stock.
Bruce and his staff at CD Heaven are Professional, Courteous, and are alway's stocking the latest Cd''s and DVD'S. They are unbeatable price wise too. Check them out!!!

Two Thumbs Up!
Without question, CD Heaven is the best place to shop for used and rare new CDs. The owner is a walking encyclopedia of music knowledge. There is also an excellent selection of LPs along with lots of concerts DVDs. Unlike Best Buy or Walmart, you can actually get some knowledgeable personal service in this place. Highly recommended.
I would agree with that. He not only has a good selection of CDs, but also records and movies on DVD. They are friendly when you go into the store, and they really know the music.
CD Heaven - one of the few CD stores left. A really cool place to find rare CD's and albums. The staff is really knows their music!! Check it out, you will love it!!
CD Heaven - one of the remaining few record/album shops around. Located in Tamarac for the past 16 years - has pretty much an album you could want!
