Sherman Oaks, CA

Maybe we can get a small group together in each of our locations?

I have had experience with this group and I do not recommend joining. You will not find quality gear in this organization. Certainly nothing that matches yours.

Gee, sorry your experience was not so good.

I have been a member over 2 years, and have gone to many events where top of the line manufacturers were present giving demos. I have also met many audiophiles who love and know music, and have carefully put together some great systems. Overall it has been a good place to learn, share and have fun.

It's so bizarre to say there is no quality gear there. I host a cook out for LAOCAS every year (I don't think I am this year...for personal reasons a one year break is right)

I look for no biz from it. Its a party. In fact I avoid trying to sell a thing. Cary Audio founder Dennis Had and co-owner Billy Wright flew out from North Carolina just for it. We had a riot.

The group has grown a lot, the head dude, Bob Levy, is a man that I can learn lessons from as he is a BUILDER of things much larger than a club. He works it, but in a giving way....not a taker.

As to quality gear...we had one of three pair of Sonus Faber Strads in North America here. That's not quality?

Veryrichone...

Change your name dude. I have made some decent scratch but one of my hedge fund customers made more in a day that I did last year. Doesn't flaunt it. My #2 rich dude dresses in t-shirts and jeans and tennis shoes. And besides that there are many ways to be rich

Kevin,

See my response on the experiences buyin in la.
