Hi Harry!

How time flies. I’d forgot I had even posted in here. I’ll remember to check the notification of reply box this time.

I’ll try and get some pictures of my Bruce Moore- Citation transformer amps up and post the latest on my Teres this weekend!

Cheers,

David

Hello Trevor,

Welcome to the Bay Area.

I hope by now you’ve met some members of our audiophile society.

Our web site is undergoing an upgrade soon, but you can check out some of the highlights from the events we’ve hosted. We are always looking for new members, especially those who show an interest in participating actively in our audiophile…[Read more]

Great write up and great post.

We’re working on updating our web hosting platform so that in the future members will be able to get notifications when there are new posts- such as yours, that are time sensitive and of interest.

Keep us updated!

I too am a fan of the Citation transformers and tubes. I have a pair of  mono blocs with the Citation transformers that have been sitting unused for a couple of years, but I love them.  I’ve also got a DIY table, that started when I saw a friends DIY Teres bearing TT. Many years later, and I’m still tweaking it, this time with a new motor and c…[Read more]

This sounds like something most members would be interested in participating in. I think Larry may be working on incorporating this into an event. Larry?

I’m glad I made the suggestion that Russ write this tribute, after he informed me of Ms. Whitfield’s death and suggested that I write it. Thanks Russ, for such a wonderful send off to a great lady of song. She will be missed by very many in the Bay Area, and indeed the rest of the World.

Hi Kate!

I’ll put a little announcement in our next newsletter about this too-

That should come out tomorrow!

They look well made and should move quickly. Do you have pictures of the top of the speakers? What’s happening with that little shelf on top. Is there an opening there?

David

No! Kev, you need to re state the sonic attributes of these speakers. I’ve heard them, and I’d say it like this: These OB’s PLAY BASS REAAAALLLY WELL! When you can feel the rumble of the Tympani beneath your feet, that’s some gooooood bass.

Hello “UpTheCreek”

Welcome to the SFAS forum.

I’m a Walnut Creek resident, and have plans, along with a couple of other members, to come and check out your store. But, you forgot to include your name in your posting above, so that we know who you are, so that we can say hello when we see you!

Cheers,

Hello Mat-

Welcome to the San Francisco Audiophile Society, and more specifically, to our forum section of the web site. Getting “hooked into vinyl” is something many of us are very familiar with! I look forward to seeing you at an event soon, and someday making a trip down to your audio showroom. You’ve got an impressive line up of audio…[Read more]

David- Excellent write up, and one that needs to be previewed in the next Muse “New Toys” section with a reference to the full write up here. Some people may feel cables are not enough of a “component” to warrant the moniker of being a toy, but I think you’ve made the point that your cable experience deserves inclusion.

David

Wow. This sounds fun, as I agree that there is no instrument like a large pipe organ, because well, there isn’t. One of my favorite demo pieces is Bach’s Passacaglia & Fugue in C minor, BWV 582

I received the recording on a demo CD from a speaker manufacturer who could not remember where that particular piece had come from. For many years it has…[Read more]

Hi John,

Infrequently, but a few times a year I’ve been lucky enough to partake in some informal album side listening sessions,  generally with with 3 to 5 people total. Most of the participants have been members of the SFAS, but occasionally friends who don’t want to take the time to formally join a club have coordinated a gathering. Of c…[Read more]

Joe, that’s pretty funny- did I miss that at the show, or did I get too much room treatment to remember?

Hi Kate-

Sorry I had to work while this was going on, but thank you for posting this notice. I sent a note to our web person alerting them to this event, but no notice got sent out to our members.

I hope that next year we can get a big contingent of our vinyl lovers to attend this.

We missed you at our Andrew Jones event…[Read more]

Alon, a splendid observation (on fire) that I didn’t notice until you pointed it out! A nearby bar-b-q perhaps?

Jazzfan- That this design is superior to existing turntable designs will be a matter of debate. he purported advantage would be that there could be no bearing noise transmitted to the platter- there being no bearing that the platter…[Read more]
