Phoenix, AZ



The Arizona Audio Video Club began life as the Arizona Audiophile Society in 1985. The name was changed a few years back to more accurately reflect the varied interests of the members. The club meetings are held on the last Tuesday of the month, at various locations in the greater Phoenix area. We occasionally schedule special interest meetings, with topics such as music listening, equipment evaluations, tech workshops, etc. Members receive monthly newsletters, either as hard copies or by e-mail. Members also enjoy discounts on purchases at several of the local audio and HT specialty stores. For more information, check out our website at www.azaudioclub.com

Come one, come all --Club members and guests, that is!Wednesday, Feb 29th. One of the very few true high-end audio stores left in Arizona, Esoteric Audio, owned and operated by Gary Hjerpe, will be demonstrating their wares, including Rockport's Mira and Aquila speakers, Revel Salon, PSB, and others. Also the Wadia 9 digital decoding computer, and VTL MB-450 Mk. III poweramps, along with equipment from Mark Levinson, Boulder, Denon, JVC, Music Hall, and many others.

As usual, refreshments will be available and we'll have a kick-ass raffle.

The address is 17442 N 28th St., Phoenix 85032; that's a few blocks north of Bell on the west side of 28th Street. We'll have our Club sign out and visible from the street. Gary's new store resides in a very nice custom designed and built room, the best he's ever had, IMO. 7PM until Gary and Pam evict us. :-)
