Well, if you have to ask then no.
Not into politics, klicks, or audio snobbery.
Dallas (Fort Worth) Audiophile Club - we meet every month or every other month
I run an audiophile group in DFW, we call ourselves DFW audiophile club aka DFWAC.
We have 6 core members who make it to every meet, we have 4-5 others who cycle in and out.
We just met and had a great time, we listened to a pair of Wilson Alexandria X2S2, Boulder 3060 amp, Boulder 2110 preamp, DCS Vivaldi full stack including DAC/upsampler/clock/transport, with dual JL Audio F113 subs, and full Transparent Magnum Opus speaker wire and interconnects and Tara Labs power cables.
We usually meet once a month or every other month, we usually meet on a Wednesday at 6p, then dinner at 8p, hang out until about 11p.
It's a great group, we have become friends. We have been meeting for about a year.
PM me if you want to join or show off your system.

@joey_v I understand and I would not let you near my home without vetting you either. I also do not need to talk every day for sure. Good luck to you and your click. |
Hi All, I'm a Dallas semi-audiophile- Certainly not a purist, but do appreciate upgraded sound over mass market. For years, I've been running my B&W 683's off an old Denon AVR (2310)... I'm music 70%, TV/movies 30%... Music typically listened to on vinyl or higher-quality digital played over wifi via Chromecast audio. It's time to upgrade my music listening experience... I'm thinking a decent stereo amp + an upgraded receiver should get me where I want to go... But I need some help. Would anyone be open to a quick consulting gig to help me out? I would go into an audio store with this ask but don't want to be "sold" anything... Really looking for more budget, even used equipment... Thought I'd reach out to some local experts. Thanks!! Daniel |
👍 much appreciated. Probably try make an appointment for a couple weeks and @joey_v will let you know. thanks |
Didn't know it's been almost 6 months since the last post. A audiophile just reached out to me so it reminded me of this thread.
The club is still going strong, actually it's bigger and more eventful than before.
We are at about 100, with about 50 who are very active.

If you haven’t already done so, go visit SouthWest Audio Fest tomorrow! Show your support so that organizers bring it back next year! Lots of major high end brands are present and some are in very generously sized and well setup rooms. It will be a great way to spend your Sunday amongst some of the best audio equipment out there and you don’t even need to get on a plane! |
It was awesome meeting all of you. We don’t have a tight audiophile community in South Florida. You all have a great thing going but the most important thing are the people that make up your group. I loved meeting each and everyone of you. Big amps, big speakers, big trucks are all things I am attracted to and the lonestar state is also a big space that can really help take my business to the next level. |
I would like to attend one of your meetings. My brother-in-law passed away in May. I’m trying to help my sister-in-law dispose of his collection of audio equipment. He was a serious hoarder. For example, he has around 12 McIntosh tube amplifiers in his basement on a rack. He probably has between 500 K and $1 million worth of stereo equipment in various rooms in his house and his basement. Would like some advice on how to go about selling it. I would post some pictures if I knew how to on this forum. |
@joey_v i missed daughter had a birthday party. |
