Specializing in high-end hi-fi systems and immersive home theater audio, Lee carefully curates his product selection, choosing brands he genuinely believes in, rather than chasing industry trends. His discerning ear means gimmicks don\u2019t fool him, which is why he didn\u2019t hesitate to jump in headfirst with us, becoming a Supreme Reference dealer from day one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lee is also a bit of a road warrior, regularly making house calls to demonstrate products in his clients\u2019 homes. I\u2019ve had the privilege of joining him on a few visits, and I can confidently say his customers are just as discerning about audio as he is. They trust his expertise and genuinely appreciate the Nordost products we\u2019ve showcased in their systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re in the greater Nashville area and considering any of the brands in Lee\u2019s portfolio, give him a call at 615-435-3377. In one room, he can show you what\u2019s possible in both stereo and immersive audio\u2014and trust me, his systems are truly impressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#f9f9f9\"><tbody><tr><td>Address:<\/td><td>188 Front Street<br>Suite 116-72<br>Franklin, TN&nbsp; 37064<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Phone:<\/td><td>615-435-3377<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Email:<\/td><td><a href=\"mailto:lees@chatenn.com\">lees@chatenn.com<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Web:<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.creativeaudiotn.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.creativeaudiotn.com<\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Seth Snyder&nbsp; Creative Audio of Tennessee is one of Nordost\u2019s newest dealers and the passion project of Lee Stromatt, a true audiophile dedicated to delivering the best sound possible. &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/dealer-spotlight-creative-audio-of-tennessee\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Dealer Spotlight: Creative Audio of Tennessee&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9240","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-dealer-spotlight"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
