Default Los Angeles and Orange County Audiophile Society Event

[align=center]Los Angeles and Orange County Audiophile Society Event[/align]

Hey! I get to hit the road again! I've been invited to do a little dog and pony for the Los Angeles and Orange County Audiophile Society. It's Sunday, August 19, 1-4pm at the Holiday Inn, Buena Park.

Here's the fun part: My schtick is not going to center around how great HeadRoom is (even though it might be pretty good), it will be about about what a great hobby being an Audiohile is because it includes an amazingly wide array of things: amps, speakers, turntables, CD players, sure; but also network streaming audio sources, computer audio, and, of course, headphones. Then I'll yabber on about the headphone part of the hobby, take a few questions, and then let people have at the gear.

Speaking of gear, it won't just be HeadRoom gear, I'm rounding up a few hand picked members
to show of some of the sexier systems amongst the LA Head-Fi crew so that the Audiophile Society folks can get a taste of member gear; I've invited Craig from Eddy Current to show of a bit of gear; and I've just realized I should probably invite the folks at UE as their local.

Lastly, I'd like to invite any of you who'd like to to show up and support your local audiophile society. Bob Levi (who heads the society) does a GREAT job of putting together an interesting schedule of events, I'm sure some of you would get a kick out of participating in their group and representing for the headphone geeks.

For those of you who are not in the LA area, I have good news: this event is really a dry run for me; I intend to set up a tour of meetings with regional audiophile societies next fall that have the theme of bringing the headphone aspect of audio enthusiasm more to the attention of traditional audiophiles. I hope some of you with killer systems will be willing to join me in introducing these audio centrists to the pleasures of killer headphone audio. And, of course, since I'll be around, I'd be more than willing to entertain personally attending a local Head-Fi meet if you decide to have one when I'm in town. After I get a schedule of events with the Audiophile Societies and tour map together (probably sometime early next year) I'd be happy to coordinate with you guys to set some meet dates.

So, see you in LA soon, or somewhere else along the way next year.

That's a typo, the second "i" should be an ....., well I'm sure you can figure it out. And it applies several ways, not the least of which is financially.

Darn! I've been planning to go to these for the longest time. But I am stuck in Africa for this date. Sorry I'll have to miss it! At least I have my iMod, tomahawk, ALO-IC, and a couple IEMs with me (in my headroom bag...)

Is this a "free" event? Do we need to register, or just show up?

What are the details?
