That's one! Any more takers?

Still no takers? :-/ Come on. Wheres the spirit? Or is this the cheap Bose theatre surround market? I need to move to NC. They have a place called The Analog Store. Guess what they sell? And they survive! lol. For real though.... New idea! How about one full day. Like a mini audio show. Bring a couple pieces of gear and some cables you are fond of and we'll give em all a listen, mix and match, drink tasty Belgian beer (im not promoting alcoholism here) and chat it up about experiences thus far. It would be a beneficial thing for those in the beginning stages and for those with established rigs. I'd have no problem recommending my place but it isn't the ideal listening room and 5 is a crowd. And its an apartment. Don't want to get reported. lol! Maybe I should invite the neighbors that would call the cops. ;-) Hope to hear from more of you.

Man, I feel ya. I have made a few attemts at starting a club with no takers---NONE. There's one guy I occasionally go vinyl hunting with and that's it. I've tried in two other major audio sites and FB. I just don't get it. With all of the people that live in the seven cities, which has to be in the millions now, it is so hard to get something going.

Hang in there and keep trying. I have been in 2 audio clubs and they can be loads of fun. My local group is here in Hampton Roads and I started it about 4 years ago. We have 5 members and that is the max. we can fit in at the present time. Three of us spin vinyl in addition to cd's. Most of us have mature systems -- Martin Logan, Snell, Maggies etc.
what do you enjoy listening to?

Hey there. Thanks for the reply.

I listen to quite a lot of music and I've gotten into Acoustic guitar and new age classical and piano quite a bit about a year ago. I listen to a lot of other stuff you nor I would ever dream of playing on our rigs (only in the car) but other than that I keep it simple and light at home. More enjoyable.

I understand your 5 member rule. Even with one other person in the room with me I can hear a slight offset in the sound and I lose my sweet spot which I hate sharing. :) I was more/less trying to start something up to try to learn more than I could from going to a dealer and staring at their gear when I'd rather bring something home to hear, swap, trade and try.

We'll see what happens. Thanks!
