DC Metro


I was wondering if there is any interest in a DC area audio or audio/video society. About twelve years ago, I was one of the founders of the Greater South Bay Audiophile Society in the Los Angeles area and had a great time attending the meetings, learning more about the synergy of products, and meeting great people and listening to the different types of music these people brought to the meetings. We held monthly meetings, either at member's homes or at local audio stores, and had manufacturers come in and demonstrate their latest gear. I moved to Northern Virginia about ten years ago and didn't find a similar group in the area. An attempt at forming a group about six or seven years ago did not generate much interest, but from talking to some of the people I've met recently, there may be enough of an interest to try again.
For full disclosure, I started up a part-time home-based audio business early last year. The first planning meeting could be held at our showroom and we could listen to some of the new products we've recently added to our lines. Some may see this as a conflict of interest, and since I am not planning on being one of the officers or prime movers of the society, we could have the meeting elsewhere. The bottom line is anyone interested?

Hi folks,

I'd be very interested in joining the club. I live near the Eastern Market. No car, though. Are most of these meetings metro-accesible?
I am currently in Moscow on business. We had a good meeting with great turnout and interest last summer, though events since then have kept me from organizing any followups. We had planned on having the next meeting be a round-robin meeting, going to several members homes in a general area. Other meetings would be at one memeber's house, mfrs, stores, with some having product line reps doing demos, etc. I have several more lengthy trips this year, but hope to get another meeting (and plan the next before everyone leaves) some time early to mid fall. Will keep you on the invite list.
