In case you're unaware, there is a fairly active "Gateway" audio club over on audiocircle.com.
St. Louis, Missouri
I'd be interested in trading music and listening to equipment with audiophiles in the St. Louis area. I'm free most evenings and on weekends. I have a Thiel/Meitner/Classe/Harmonic Tech/CEC system and love all music except for opera. The bulk of my collection is devoted to rock (all generes but heavy metal and thrash), jazz, folk and jazz. I appreciate classical but am open to learning more.
