Bring Your Own Device — Listening Session

We are setting up a high-fidelity (HiFi) stereo with parts unknown. Bring your own device (BYOD). Attendees are encouraged to bring equipment to share with others. The main system will be vinyl focused but digital ready via USB and streaming for playlists. Disc jockeys (DJs) and curators are welcome to join us. Select your sets in advance for 15 minutes of playtime. Let us know you are coming before the slots fill up. We are audiophiles with delicate gear and sensitive ears. Meaning prepare for critical listening the system is curated for acoustic room presence at moderate volume. We are gathering to socialize, share new music, and enjoy analog vintage sound.

Saison Sundays are filled with conversation, music, and friends. I am a brewer working with yeast and wild fermentation. Join the group to access to upcoming beer releases featuring rustic ales I've created or collected. Our brewery hosted collaboration events happen when beers are released.

The concept of critical listening is taken from Hi-Fi audio meetings with a group of audiophile enthusiasts. We meet monthly to share new music, enjoy analog sound, and chat all things vintage. Private gatherings are hosted by request.
