As a Chicago area resident, there are, regrettably, no music stores in the immediate area that stock a wide selection of tubas. Travel 1 1/2 hours from the Illinois border to South Bend, IN to visit The Woodwind & The Brasswind (their billboards are plastered all over I-80/90, so you'll find it), or approximately 4 hours through Michigan to visit Custom Music. You could visit both in one long productive day.

Many of the tuba retailers/manufacturers have a display at the Midwest Band and Orchestra Clinic in Chicago if you're willing to wait until December. Although new horns are featured there, there are usually a few used horns to try.
