Are you in a MUSIC CLUB yet?


What is a music club? It is simply a few music lovers who also like hi end audio and get together once a month. The first group I was in over 20 years ago had 4 or 5 guys. All music then was burned to cassette tape, Ouch. I remember the first night one of our members introduced us to a new device he just purchased...a CD player. It had just been released on the market...this was in the 80's and the sound was very dynamic and edgy. We shared our music often making extra tapes to exchange. The group I am in today, I started from a listing here on Audiogon seeking some members in this area. We rotate venues to mix it up and even had a video night recently for HT concert footage.
We have been going strong for 2 years now and it has been a lot of fun. I would encourage you to give it a try in your area. You get to hear lots of different music and if you are lucky your new pals can help you improve your system and vice versa. Try to find people who have a passion for music and like a wide range of artists if possible.
Anyone doing this monthly?

Yes, the Club section here on Audiogon is a good place to start. The old group I was in from the 80's has split into two groups now and both are still going strong. We have had a few members drop out since they didn't seem to have much depth or variety in musical taste or collections.

It's funny that one member who has bought most all of his music online as compressed has now declared that no more compressed music for him. He has heard the difference and now crossed over from the dark side.

My group has really helped me upgrade my system since one guy has Martin Logans and the other Maggies. Their fine tuned ears have helped me improve my system 100% plus I like some of the music they play enough to go out and by it for myself.
