                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in conformity with instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. Certain items included
in these statements are based on management estimates. In the opinion of
management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments,
consisting of normal, recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the
financial position of the Company at March 31, 1997 and June 30, 1996 and the
statements of operations for the three and nine month periods ended March 31,
1997 and 1996 and statements of cash flows for the nine month periods ended
March 31, 1997 and 1996. The results of operations for the three and nine months
ended March 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results
expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1997. These financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto contained in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1996.

2.) NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE
    Net income (loss) per common and common equivalent share has been determined
by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common
stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the respective period
unless their effect was antidilutive.

3.) SEASONALITY
    Historically, the Company's net sales are greater during the holiday season
than during other periods of the year. Net sales by fiscal quarters and their
related percentages for the trailing four quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
are as follows:

5.) PROVISION (BENEFIT) FOR INCOME TAXES
    During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, the Company recognized the
maximum available tax benefit associated with its net operating loss carryback.
The Company had sufficient taxable income in previous years to support the
recognition of its deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance has been
established to the extent future deductible amounts cannot be recovered through
Federal taxes paid within the statutory carryback period. Additional tax
benefits will be recognized when the Company generates sufficient additional
taxable income.

6.) STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
    During the first quarter ended September 30, 1996 incentive stock options
covering an aggregate of 11,000 shares of common stock having an exercise price
of $7.27 per share expired. During the second quarter ended December 31, 1996
incentive stock options covering an aggregate of 27,500 shares of common stock
having an exercise price of $5.45 per share expired and a warrant to acquire
10,000 shares of common stock having an exercise price of $8.78 per share also
expired. In March 1997, incentive stock options to purchase an aggregate of
75,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.69 per share and
immediately exercisable through March 9, 2002 were issued, pursuant to the
Company's second amended and restated 1986 stock option plan (the "stock option
plan") to four executive officers of the Company. At the same time, stock
options to purchase 31,000 shares of common stock previously issued to two
executive officers at an exercise price of $6.29 were cancelled and reissued
pursuant to the stock option plan at an exercise price of $1.69 per share and
are immediately exercisable through March 9, 2002.

7.) EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
    Effective as of March 24, 1997, the employment agreements for two of the
Company's executive officers were extended for an additional year to June 30,
1998 on substantially the same terms and conditions as in effect under their
respective employment agreements expiring June 30, 1997.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
    The Company's net sales for the quarter ended March 31,1997, decreased
$3,648,000 or 9.3% to $35,431,000 compared to $39,079,000 in the prior fiscal
year. The decrease is primarily attributable to the Company's decision to
eliminate personal computers and other non-performing low margin products from
the product mix along with reduced sales of cellular telephones and VCRs.
Comparable store net sales decreased 9.9% in the quarter ended March 31, 1997
over the corresponding quarter in the prior year. The comparable store sales
were adjusted to exclude the store relocated to a larger showroom in November
1996. The Company's operations, in common with other retailers in general, are
subject to seasonal influences. Historically, the Company has realized more of
its net sales and operating income in the second quarter ending in December.

    Net sales for the nine months ended March 31,1997, decreased by $12,998,000
or 9.5% to $123,506,000 compared to $136,504,000 in the prior fiscal year. The
decrease in net sales is attributable, as stated above, to the Company's
decision to eliminate personal computers and other non-performing low margin
products from the product mix. Comparable store net sales decreased 10.2% in the
nine months ended March 31, 1997 over the corresponding period in the prior
fiscal year. The comparable store sales were adjusted to exclude the store
relocated to a larger showroom in November 1996.

    Gross profit decreased by $35,000 or .3% in the quarter ended March 31, 1997
compared to the corresponding quarter in fiscal 1996. The gross profit
percentage was 33.7% in the quarter ended March 31, 1997. The gross profit
percentage exclusive of computer sales was 32.3% for the quarter ended March 31,
1996. The increase in gross profit percentage is directly related to the
Company's renewed focus on value added selling in the core categories of high
end audio, video and mobile electronics.

    Gross profit increased by $661,000 or 1.7% in the nine months ended March
31, 1997 compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year. The
gross profit for the prior fiscal year was impacted by a $1,500,000 provision
for loss on personal computers and related accessories recorded in the second
quarter of fiscal 1996 in connection with such product category's elimination
from the Company's product mix. The gross profit percentage was 31.8% in the
nine months ended March 31, 1997. Exclusive of the provision for loss on
personal computers and accessories, the gross profit percentage for the nine
month period ended March 31, 1996 was 29.4%. As stated above, this increase in
gross profit and gross profit percentage is directly related to the Company's
renewed focus on value added selling in the core categories of high end audio,
video and mobile electronics and the elimination of computers and other
non-performing low margin products from the product mix.

    Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") decreased by $54,000
and $3,577,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1997 over the

                                     Page 9


<PAGE>

corresponding periods in the prior year. Decreases in SG&A in both periods were
primarily attributable to cost reduction programs initiated by the Company
primarily in the areas of advertising and personnel expense. The Company
continues to monitor and control expenses in its effort to reduce the overall
level of SG&A expense. Since a sizeable amount of these reductions were
associated with the elimination of expenses associated with sales of personal
computers, it is anticipated that future expense reductions in this area will
not be as significant. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased to 33.0% and
30.2% in the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 1997 from 30.1% and 29.9%,
respectively, in the comparable periods of the previous year. The percentage
increase in both periods is directly attributable to the reduction in net sales
from the previous comparable periods.

    Interest expense increased by $63,000 for the quarter and $116,000 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997 compared to the same periods in the prior year.
The increase was primarily reflective of a higher effective interest rate under
the Company's revolving credit facility during the third quarter and first nine
months of fiscal 1997 on a decreased level of average outstanding borrowings.

    The Company had an effective income tax rate of approximately 51.6% for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997 compared to an effective income tax rate
benefit of 14.2% in the comparable period of the previous year. The effective
tax rate increased during the first nine months of fiscal 1997 due primarily to
an increase in taxable income and the upward adjustment to the valuation reserve
on deferred tax assets resulting from a reduction in the amount of taxes paid in
prior years that would be available to offset future tax losses or temporary
differences.

    Net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 was $84,000 or $.02 per share
compared to net loss of $64,000 or $.02 per share for the same quarter in the
previous year. Net income for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 was $445,000
or $.12 per share compared to net loss of $2,781,000 or $.75 per share in the
same period of the prior fiscal year. The net income in the 1997 fiscal year was
primarily attributable to the increase in gross profit as a result of the
Company's renewed focus in the core categories of audio, video and mobile
electronics, and the elimination of personal computers and other low margin
products and reduction in SG&A expenses.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
    Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $1,754,000 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997 primarily due to the increase in the Company's
inventory since June 30, 1996. The Company had working capital of approximately
$8,788,000 at March 31, 1997, as compared to the $8,625,000 in working capital
at June 30, 1996 for an overall increase of $163,000. The increase in current
assets of $1,766,000 during the nine month period was primarily related to the
$2,837,000 increase in inventory, which was partially offset by a decrease in
cash of $953,000. The net increase in current assets was offset by an overall
increase of $1,603,000 in current liabilities primarily resulting from an
increase in each of borrowings under the revolving credit facility of
$1,789,000, cash overdraft of $987,000, and accrued liabilities of $1,680,000,
which were partially offset by a decrease of $2,860,000 in accounts payable.

    The Company currently believes that funds from the Company's operations
combined with borrowings available under its revolving credit facility and
vendor credit programs will be sufficient to satisfy its currently projected
operating cash requirements over the next twelve months. The Company's operating
performance has improved as a result of a return to its traditional focus on
value added selling in the core categories of high end audio, video and mobile
electronics together with the elimination of personal computers and other
non-performing products from its product mix.

    The Company is pursuing the opening of additional store sites within the
state of Florida. It is currently anticipated that one additional store will be
opened prior to November 30, 1997, with an additional store opened near the end
of fiscal 1998 or the beginning of fiscal 1999. Although the Company has
existing borrowing capacity to assist in the opening of new stores, the Company
intends to seek additional financing solely for the purpose of store expansion.
Accordingly, the Company's ability to achieve its store expansion goals could be
adversely effected if it is unable to obtain such additional financing.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

    This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements (within the meaning of
Section 21E. of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) representing
