North Carolina Audio Club


Let's start a NC Audio Club. Any comments? Any suggestions about how to promote our interest and perhaps hear other folks systems, or benefit from their experiences?

Good people and Audio shops in NC.  It is one of my fave states to visit.


Happy Listening!

Enjoyed out get-together a couple of weeks ago. Hopefully there will be more interest.

@n80, @anlaysis,@raindance,

n80,

This message is mainly directed at you. I remember reading in your posts that you’re in Fort Worth, SC. Well, that’s not far from @analysis , who, BTW, kind of started this idea of like-minded audiophiles getting together every now and then. I’ve kind of been put in the position of keeping this all together and trying to recrute others. @analysis lives very close to you. I’m in Greensboro, @raindance is in Cary. I believe that if the motivation is strong enough we may make (Super-team) of like-minded individuals from varying backgrounds that would be compatible with one-another.

Just got back from the Capital Audiofest show a few days ago. It was worth the effort getting there.

If you don’t mind driving here again I would very much enjoy having a group here for music and refreshments. We should plan for a gathering after Thanksgiving. Thoughts?

@slaw : Sorry to just now be responding. I think the '@' function did not work.

Is this the Carolina Audio Society? I see they have an event in Charlotte on Saturday the 30th. Unfortunately I will be in Charleston that weekend. Would like to attend a meeting if I am in town.
Hey @n80,

I'm afraid not. Upon reading through these post, you should get a sense of out short history. You're in Fort Mill, @analysis  is in south Charlotte, I'm in Greensboro. Serious people should be able to make this work?
My wife and I live in the DC/Baltimore area and last November were blessed with the arrival of our first grandchild, who lives in Asheville.  We've been scoping out the Asheville/Hendersonville area as a possible area to purchase that "retirement home", and one of the "gotta haves" with that home purchase is a "bonus room" for my man cave.

I don't see any clubs or audio dealers for that matter in Western NC.  Anyone know of either out in the Blue Ridge Mountains?
@slaw 
and others

Im in Raleigh and interested in getting involved.  Is anything happening?
slaw...look up carolinaaudiosociety.com...they do have meetings in Raleigh during the year and in Greensboro and other cities also..Mike Twomey is one of the founders..he has an audio business in his house ..including Magico..Bryston etc..
Calloway,

Thanks for the link to the Carolina Audio Society, I bookmarked it.  We are building a home down near Asheville, will be moving in about a year, will look them up after we move!
FWIW, I have a small house, not conducive for gatherings. Still would enjoy having like-minded people over.

Well, 17 years later (after giving up here), I have a local group that meets every month or two for listening sessions.

From Charleston to Rock Hill to Spartanburg to Concord. It happens.

I'll try once again to see if there is any spark of interest. With that said, I have no CLUE what the 'Gon's policies are anymore with private messaging or getting a GTG/group to actually plan things but I figured that I would chime in and give it a shot.

We'll see.

Tom

Hi Tom, I have inquired a few times as well. I am in Charlotte. Where are you located?

Mike

Any further activity here?  I am somewhat interested, but way over in Hillsborough.  I am in the process of upgrading one more time before I am too old to hear the difference!
