AUDIOPHILE SOCIETIES

Attention all Audiophile Societies, have your society or club information posted here. To do so, e-mail Chris Vogel at vgl@cfl.rr.com and request an info-pack.

Chris Vogel suggests that if there is no Audio Society in your area, just take the initiative: "A simple monthly or bi-monthly meeting for listening and auditioning should do just fine. You can specify a theme such as CD players and have members bring one for auditioning. E-mail is invaluable for posting, updating, and sending reminders. Some type of food, snack, and/or refreshment is appropriate and it is worthwhile to give an indication of what to expect."

"Post your new Society on the Stereophile website, it will be a rewarding experience. There is tremendous reward in hearing the great variety of audiophile systems that are out there in other's homes. Keep an open mind and over time you should acquire a broader reference to assist you in building up your own system. Remember, this is an enriching experience."

San Francisco Audiophile Society
California
www.SFAudiophileSociety.com
alon@SFAudiophileSociety.com

Our organization was originally founded in 1995 as the Bay Area Audiophile Society. For the last 20 years, we have been a home for local audio and music aficionados from many walks of life. At our events, hosted either at a member's home or a local dealer, we enjoy evaluating high-end audio components and discerning whether they can take us even a nanometer closer to the ultimate audiophile goal: the experience of “live” music being believably recreated in our homes. It is with this lofty aspiration that we gather regularly to learn, compare, and share war stories of our never-ending quest. In contrast, we also like to shmooze, laugh, eat, and of course, let it all go and just listen to great music being played on superb systems. Often, attendees will bring in a few of their most loved recordings and introduce the group to brilliant and inspiring performances. Our members appreciate this as a great way to get exposed to music they have not yet heard and add these new gems to their collections.

On occasion, we facilitate “Sys-hops,” where, on a given day, members can visit other members' homes, audition their system, and when ready, “hop” on to the next one to experience another. These moving audiophile open-houses offer us the rare opportunity to hear a few different systems in a day, each finely-tuned by their proud owner.

Our group outings have included tours of Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab; Dolby Labs; Silverline; VMPS; and Fantasy Records. We've had presentations and demonstrations by industry luminaries such as Steve Hoffman; Paul McGowan; “Doc” Johnson; Mark Waldrep; Alon Wolf; and Albert Von Schweikert. We've also held product demos of high-end gear such as Magico and Coincident speakers; Theta, Lightspeed and Berkeley Audio DACs; and Goldmund, Parasound and deHavilland amplifiers – to name but a few. Our Smackdown series of audio gear shoot-outs are lots of fun and involve members bringing their own gear to the event to be “assessed” by our highly opinionated members.

The common denominator for all our gatherings is the unabashed enjoyment of our shared hobby. Our driving philosophy is that if we're not having fun, we're not doing it right! Our society's (still growing) leadership team is made up of passionate, music-loving audiophiles. Each one generously volunteering their time, expertise and creative efforts to share the thrilling experience of high-end audio with anyone ready to listen.

We have in our midst tube-lovers, vinylphiles, and proponents of digital reproduction. Mostly, we congregate to talk audio and audition the broadest variety of music and equipment that we can. Our membership is spread along the front range of the Colorado Rockies--from Longmont to Boulder and Denver to Colorado Springs.

Portland Audio Club
Oregon
Meetup Website (Contact organizers via Meetup)

The Portland Audio Club are enthusiasts sharing our love of music and audio. Anyone is welcome to join, regardless of age, sex, gender, nationality, ethnicity, or any such factor. What we hope for in members is a sincere interest in music and audio -- and an open mind to others' opinions. We are a volunteer organization -- no one is paid to run the club.

We do have yearly dues of $12 to cover the cost of the meetup group and incidentals to facilitate our meetings, but no one is turned away who wants to come. We generally meet alternating third Sunday's and fourth Thursday's at Portland's Rogue Eastside Pub and Pilot Brewery. Come join us! Occasionally members graciously host a listening session in their home too.

Our focus is on home audio equipment and achieving better reproduction of the music we love. How does your audio system sound? What cost-effective changes might make it better? How do others' systems sound? Why are systems so different? What can other audiophiles tell you about how they got great (or not so great) sound?

PAC is about sociability -- a journey is more fun with companions. At our meetings, you can find other audiophiles who share your interests. Many audio systems are best demonstrated to small groups (as small as 2), and meetings are great ways to arrange those demos.

Finally, we think that audio is just as much about the journey as about the destination. So whether your interest is Hip-Hop, Jazz, Classical or something else; whether your system is your iPhone or high-end components in a dedicated room, we warmly invite you to join us.
