Dallas (Fort Worth) Audiophile Club - we meet every month or every other month

I run an audiophile group in DFW, we call ourselves DFW audiophile club aka DFWAC.  

We have 6 core members who make it to every meet, we have 4-5 others who cycle in and out.

We just met and had a great time, we listened to a pair of Wilson Alexandria X2S2, Boulder 3060 amp, Boulder 2110 preamp, DCS Vivaldi full stack including DAC/upsampler/clock/transport, with dual JL Audio F113 subs, and full Transparent Magnum Opus speaker wire and interconnects and Tara Labs power cables.

We usually meet once a month or every other month, we usually meet on a Wednesday at 6p, then dinner at 8p, hang out until about 11p.

It's a great group, we have become friends. We have been meeting for about a year.

PM me if you want to join or show off your system.

Hi All,

I'm a Dallas semi-audiophile- Certainly not a purist, but do appreciate upgraded sound over mass market. 

For years, I've been running my B&W 683's off an old Denon AVR (2310)... 

I'm music 70%, TV/movies 30%... Music typically listened to on vinyl or higher-quality digital played over wifi via Chromecast audio. 

It's time to upgrade my music listening experience... I'm thinking a decent stereo amp + an upgraded receiver should get me where I want to go... But I need some help. 

Would anyone be open to a quick consulting gig to help me out? I would go into an audio store with this ask but don't want to be "sold" anything... Really looking for more budget, even used equipment...

Thought I'd reach out to some local experts. 

Thanks!! 

Daniel

Daniel,  John Fort Audio got me going about 15 years ago when I was in your shoes. John is great to work with.

Maybe if you're available when I'm not busy, I could go with you.

Didn't know it's been almost 6 months since the last post.  A audiophile just reached out to me so it reminded me of this thread. 

 

The club is still going strong, actually it's bigger and more eventful than before. 

 

We are at about 100, with about 50 who are very active.  


We meet every 1-2 months and frequently communicate outside of the forums.
