How to find local audiophiles

I was out of this world for a long time-raising kids, working too much, etc. Made do with a modest headphone setup.  When I got back in 10-12 years ago, all the high end stores had disappeared. We have one store that is really a HT store, but sells MC-Anthem-Paradigm-that's it. That's too bad. 

There are a lot of very knowledgeable  people on this forum, who are very generous in sharing their experience. There is a lot to be learned from them.
 

There is also the possibility that an entertaining brawl could break out at any time over pink fuses, magic crystals or the very nature of digital ones and zeros, the kind of stuff that would convince the rest of the world that we need to be watched very carefully and put on a no fly list.

I hope you will enjoy this forum as much as I have
