@chrisr ,
Hi. Does your reply mean you are interested?
|
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? |
Ah, just discovered this thread, i am a couple miles north of charlotte.
|
Please forgive me...Fort Mill, SC |
@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.

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

Good people and Audio shops in NC. It is one of my fave states to visit.
Happy Listening! |
@raindance
We're not that far apart! I'm willing to host the next get-together.
If you're interested, send me a PM.
Steve
@analysis
Are you listening?
|

@raindance
Where in N.C. are you located?
Steve

@slaw - you know, I stupidly didn't check the date. I just emailed him and got snubbed (and pissed off) :)
Thanks, I'd like to be a part of the group.
|
@raindance
It looks like @twochannel_guy 's last post was in 2006. Is this (the group) you are referring to?
It is not the one I'm involved with. Let me know if you are interested.
Happy Listening.
|
Maybe if you had said tweaks instead of DIY....🙄 |
Thought you all would like to know that my request to join this group was denied by twochannel_guy because I am a DIY’er in addition to being an audio enthusiast. Yet another elitist group. I am so done with all this attitude. |
@rbwinterlink - I have a pair of
MG1.6 that are needing a tweeter refurbished as well as new side rails. If you're interested we can talk. |
Steve, Thanks for making the trip to my place for the first get-together. I hope others can find the time to join us at the next gathering at your place. It will likely take place sometime in June. Mike |
If anyone is interested in joining myself and Mike...our next meeting will be at my place. Time and date will be set later but it will most likely be specific. |
Mike,
Thanks for hosting our first get-together today. Enjoyed the music and the conversation. Hopefully others will express interest going forward.
Steve |
Hi Mike,
I don't want to tell you wrong, so I'd go to (help) and ask Audiogon for the best answer. It may be you don't have your email notification set up for PM?
|
Hi Slaw, My wife decided to make plans for March 31 so that's off the list. April 7 should be good. Anyone else interested? Not sure how to PM from this site? |
Hi Mike,
Weekends would be the only time for me. March 31 or April 7 would be the times I may be able to do it. If you want, we could communicate going forward with a PM?
|
Hi Slaw, Meeting monthly might be difficult for many. Informal gatherings may work. Maybe anyone who is interested can through out a few dates and I will be happy to have a gathering here. Are weekends, weekdays, evenings or days best? BTW, I'm close to the airport. I'll start: March 26th ~ 31st., April 4th ~ 7th. |
Hi Mike,
I'm in Greensboro. I have interest..just don't know at this point what all would be involved and if I could keep commitments on a regular basis???
Really interested though.
|
Hi All, Is there currently an audio club in the Charlotte area? Any interest in starting an informal audio/music group? I have a large dedicated audio room as a starting point. Maybe if there is any interest we could just pick a date that works and go from there. Mike |
Me too, would love to see some killer systems for some inspiration to work harder, lol. I'm in Raleigh though.
And, you aren't that Phil, are you? If so, love the channel on YouTube. If not, then I heartily recommend Skills With Phil on said platform. |
Hi, hoping there are a few embers left burning here. I'm in Asheville and would love to get together with other folks. |
Hi all,
I’m in Charlotte and am interested in the NC club. Also, I have a baby on the way so unfortunately won’t get to use my equipment as much as I’d like. Looking for a good home for my PSB Imagine T and C. I also don’t want them to get damaged from a baby running around. Someone will surely get to enjoy them more than me soon. Let me know if you know anyone local. I am willing to drive . |
I'm in Greensboro. I'm interested!
|
I'm between Greensboro and Charlotte and would like to find a club close by |
|
tarheeltraveler...calloway here..i am in Danville,va..about 1 1/2 hr away and i have a good friend in Greensboro. maybe we can meet sometime at one of our houses and listen to music, et al.. |
I'm in the Winston-Salem area and would love to get together with other a-philes. I may have more luck reaching others using the National Radio Astronomy Observatory, but here goes: tarheeltraveler at the major ISP starting with the letter "g". Is anyone out there? Rick |
If anybody stumbles into this forum, I'm in Asheville. I wouldn't mind hearing from some local 'philes, but Please don't expect to see/hear a megabuck system in a pristine environment. Far from that...but if you'd like to offer a pair of ears to listen to a set of DIY Walsh speakers and offer some 'constructive critique', I might be your guy. Personal taste is pretty eclectic, '60's and beyond...I listen to what 'amuses' me. And I don't own a pair of ears that can hear dog whistles or the discrete difference between cable A or X, either. And I promise not to just simply astound one with trying rattle any loose objects of the shelves with 100+ db. But that itch can be scratched if one must...
Besides, AVL is the 'beer capital'. It's like mushrooms after rain around here...
But I Would appreciate another pair of ears for reference's sake, if you'd care to be a 'test crash dummy' *L*. |
I see the last response was from almost two years ago. Is there any renewed interest in this? None of my friends are as passionate about music as me, and neither is my wife. |
|
I have gotten down here but have had further complications with my health so that I don't even have my system together yet. Fell down walking the dog a couple of weeks ago and had a concussion which made me spend 2 days in the hospital in Asheville. Better now but still weak. Enjoy your health while you have it. Stan. |
Johnvin01-
Audio Advice in Raleigh, is a nice place to sit around and talk about our wonderful hobby. Ask for Mel. |
Would be nice to get together and trade knowledge of the hobby.
I think one of the issues is the lack of hi end shops here in Wake County. |
Any club(s) operational in Raleigh or Charlotte? |
We are relocating to Charlotte NC by the end of August 2013. Any audio clubs or groups in this area? Thanks! Mike |
At one time, I can remember reading about Audio Advice in Raleigh, sponsored an audio club. Is it still active? |
Yesterday I tried to post a request to communicate with more analog audiophiles in the Georgia area who also have an interest in reel to reel tape decks and pre recorded tapes. However, my was reset for the North Carolina area. I no longer reside in that area but has since moved to Georgia.
musicmanbob |
Would love to meet more analog lovers who might also use reel to reel tape decks.
musicmanbob |
Any club(s) in or near Raleigh still active? |
Great. Looking forward to it. |
This is what Audiogon sent me today "Audiogon plans to release direct user messaging very soon to address this need to contact other users without having to reveal private user information.
I hope soon means soon as it is of highest priority to members |
Hi two channel,
I'm game to do some listening. I live in Jackson co and my business is in Asheville. I'm looking to make the move to Buncombe Co. by the new year. Jackson co might be a stretch for some. Eventually Asheville would probably be better in term of travel. Count me in.
Joe Ritota skyking172@dishmail.net |
This is where AudiogoN has gone off the tracks. It makes complete sense to advise people to not post personal information but they have precluded us from contacting one another privately. There are other audio forums without these silly restrictions where we can organize these events. |
I would like to attend and organize a meeting but the powers that be keep "unapproving" any attempts to communicate.
If you look at "Post your response", this is what Audiogone states...
Club members: feel free to post news or more info about your club.
New visitors: If you are interested in joining a local club, post your location only. Interested members will be able to contact you through your post. Do not post your phone number or address in this public area.
From what I have gathered, unless we already know each other? There is no way any audio club can grow. I have offered other avenues to organize and yet again, the moderators have unapproved the post.

Colorfulpellets,
Are you still interested in hosting a G2G in Huntersville? |
