The first meeting will be this Saturday, June 10th, from 6:30 to 10:00 at 7105 Marbury Court, Falls Church, VA (703-532-7239). We are grilling burgers and dogs with the normal sides starting at 5:30. All are welcome; no need to bring anything. Gregg Dunn from Cary Audio is planning on being there for the BBQ and meeting. In addition to the new Cary Concept gear (we also have the 805 Anniversary amps, SLP-05 preamp, 303 CD player, etc.), we'll be auditioning the recently available Acoustic Zen Adagio speaker. I imagine we'll keep 6:30 to 7:00 open for meet and greet (my wife, Carrie, will man the sign-in /name badge table, much like she did at the last club we started), 7:00 to 7:15 for basic introductions and club setup, 7:15 to 7:45-ish for Gregg to discuss and field questions, then the rest of the evening to listen to music and plan the next meeting. We (as F2 Audio) are currently between turntables, so CDs only.
Hopefully we'll get a group of people who have the desire to help make the club continue and grow. We can discuss details at the meeting. The last club I formed with a friend in CA only stayed together because of the people we had helping out. It was also a lot of fun when that happened.
Note that the BBQ is dependent on the weather. Pouring rain/lightning and we won't have the BBQ, but will start the meeting at 6:30. Feel free to call if the weather is questionable (www.f2audio.com). Also, the driveways are off limits for parking. The one is an easement to the house in the back.. Should be plenty of parking in the cul-de-sac and local streets.
That said, show up, bring ideas, friends, significant others, and good music (CDs) that you know well (those strange discs we all have for listening to new gear) and some that you just like. We may not be able to play all selections in the time allotted, but we'll do our best to accommodate everyone.
Please feel free to contact me by email for more info and also feel free to forward this to anyone in the local area you think might be interested.
