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.

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]

I think the same person (one of them) that’s looking t get back into playing vinyl could use these too. If they’re still available…

Let me know-

David

I know 2 people looking to get back into vinyl. One of them could use this!

Let me know!

Hello Zan,

That sounds like a fantastic system at a great price for someone looking to buy a complete set up all in one fell swoop.

If you’ve no luck selling the system as a whole, let me know your price points for the individual components?

Thanks David H

Very nice set up David.

I love the Legacy speakers and was oh so very close to buying a pair of the Aeris speakers at one time. I still specifically seek out their room at audio shows.

Who is it that’s doing the version of Walking On The Moon?

SOLD, SOLD, SOLD.
Sadly, my next car has a BOSE too, and not the $7,000 upgrade Burmester!

Yes, it’s terrible to have to part with audio gear. Getting money in return for used stuff is nice, but having a warehouse listening room where we could keep all our old gear would be more fun.

SOLD

Hmm, Seems I’ve lost the edit feature for this ad. To clarify, I actually purchased this from Soundstage Direct. Not Music Direct.

And, how about a labor day sale? 40% off this weekend.
