Austin, TX

I found a couple hits in the forum search but didn't see any evidence that anything came together. I want to start a "user group" here in Austin where we can get together and listen to each others music and equipment. If you're interested, send an email to hifidean@yahoo.com and I'll try to put together a yahoo group or something simple like that where we can set up a forum and/or mailing list.

We had one get-together at Whetstone Audio (several years ago now) that I thought was pretty fun, so Brian if you're watching please send me an email if you have/had an email list that we can start with.

Happy Listening,
Dean

You might mean Brian at Sound Mind Audio -- on Anderson Sq near 183. Great guy, sells Nottingham tables. Definitely worth talking too, he loves music and gear and will not send you wrong. Casey at Ne Plus Ultra also sells very high end stuff and has a variety of tables. The dealer on Koenig is Audio Systems, also sell some TT, not sure of the lines, maybe Rega. One of those three could help, but try Brian first.

Thank you - that's a generous offer -- if I can make it, I will. Saturdays are not great for me as I have a young son but I'd love to meet some fellow audiophiles.

There is a relative active set of groups in Texas and the Austin folks have got together a couple of times in the last year but most of the action seems to be in Houston or Dallas. The best way of staying in touch with any or all folks in Austin seems to be the Audio Circle forum
http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?board=77.0

Always happy to have new audio fanatics join! If that link fails, email me privately and I'll send further info.

Best

Hey Macdadtexas, maybe we're too busy listening to live music (which you can still do in Austin any night) to be messing about with cables wondering how well the sonics compare to real musical instruments that we almost never hear :)

But seriously, the Houston group seems regular...in the nicest possible way.
