Hello fellow NC Audiophiles

My names is ERIC FRANKLIN SHOOK and I am a photojournalist for www.parttimeaudiophile.com

I would love to attend and cover this get together event for our publication.

Please email me at shooknc@gmail.com if I can be invited.

EDIT: A friend kindly suggested offline that I was being my usual asshole self in my previous response, so forgive my rudeness and permit me to try again. No offense was intended. Probably should have been a lawyer.

Eric, Welcome to AudioCircle!

You are very welcome to attend our G2G! I would prefer that you come just for the camaraderie and keep it off the record. Thanks for your understanding.

Rich

Rick Craig · « **Reply #23 on:** 28 Mar 2018, 10:05 pm »

Should I bring my 708P's too or is that too much?

Eric: Highly recommend attending Rich's shindig. You will get a chance to meet
some of the most knowledgeable and fine people around. I have received a lot of
good advice from a lot of them. Just a great group who rarely take pics at any G2G.
Hoping to make this one myself.
Glad your doin better Rich.

OK, done. I'll bring the DS too.

I would love to attend, I even have some speakers that are in for review that I could bring as well.
Just let me know if that would be welcomed. Otherwise, I'd just come and enjoy the G2G.
Just email me where the G2G is and I shall be there.

Studio Electric M4 Monitors.

So far I've written nearly eighty articles for PTA -- this was my first one from way back when.

Eric,

Very nice writing. Love the photography.

Tragically Ember appears to have closed their doors last year:

Never knew of them and I was just 40 min away

Best,
Anand.

Sure, bring the Studio Electric M44 speakers.

This is shaping up to be a speaker themed meet.

About Ember, I lived 2 years in Winston back in 2007, being a small City, Winston is not a hot bed of Audio enthusiasts for sure. I would move back there because it's much more laid back, genteel, yea "red neck" nice people, less transplants, lots less. LOL! we used to go to a Waffle House in Ruralhall pronounced "Rurrall" for the aviance.......

Retail is/always having a tough time. Even here in Charlotte Audio Advice is not doing so well. Most of that is the way it is ran. I'm bullish and I stay otta retail places.

Rick, Will you be bringing the new active speakers? (Hint, hint).
Cheers,

Well guys, Scot Hull the publisher of Part-Time Audiophile called me today, and it turns out I will be covering AXPONA in Chicago the weekend of the G2G, which is great news in one aspect, and bad in another. I will not be able to attend the G2G but definitely let me know when the next one is. I'd love to attend.

Cheers!

Sorry to hear that Eric. I try to do one every three months on the seasons, depends on honeydoo list and what's going on. Watch this circle for future gigs. Enjoy AXPONA! Look forward to reading your reports from there. Please post a link in our Carolina Circle when it is published.

Tom, plenty of room. Come on up!

Not sure exactly what I will bring at this point but that's a possibility.
