Situation at 1500 votes:

Interesting that the number of votes are pretty much inversely proportional to where most of our gear is made and the raw materials for it are mined ...

 

[bluefuzz]

Saint-Étienne, France

Wow, you named your city after a band! That's taking audiophilia to the extreme ... ;-)

 

[enricoclaudio]

I see many Italians on ASR, very good!
Now I make the "French cousins" angry....
In my small TOWN we produce little audio but a lot....

I currently live in Houston, TX - USA but I'm originally from Venezuela / Italy. More precisely, I used to live in Sassuolo - Modena, just 20 Km from the Ferrari Factory in Maranello

Yep, we also named this place Bastille from musical inspiration:

AFAIC, both my active speakers and DAC/Preamp are made in EU.

More seriously : that says a lot...

I live about 30km south of Oslo in the small University town of Ås.

And I'm 20 minutes drive away from these guys:

I like the bare salt-sprinkled rocks. Here 150 kilometers north from your picture (roughly, you know exactly what it's about(Resö)) in Bohuslän, Sweden. Me and LTig (he and his wife greeted me). We sit and contemplate life (or just enjoying the occasion). That's me in the red shirt.

From this thread. Summer pictures from car cruising:

Car cruising

It's always crusing on one Saturday in the middle of July in the small community , Grebbestad, near me.:) Lots of American vintage cars, plus a few other brands. Plus party and beer. Hundreds of cars. :p I drive a Volvo V70 so I was not cruising, I did not drink beer either but like so many...

I am madly jealous! Damn that audition room is crazy awesome. I would be showing up every day with a bag of croissants and Espresso’s to give out so I can stay and listen. Like a begging dog that won’t go away.

VF, you crushed it with this thread dude. Over 1500 votes and all the incredible people and photography of their cherished home towns. You win the Post of the year for 2024. So far…. Great job VF. Thank you Sir.

From the very place where Slayer was born!

I cannot help to remember El Día de la Bestia when I see a pic of the Gran Vía.

well El Dia de la Bestia was a underground satanic-comedy of early 2000's with nice dialogues but i though it was more related with Plaza Castilla also in Madrid

Hi from Segovia, Spain.... N41W004, rounded.

In Segovia's land, where melodies sway,
Notes dance through time in a rhythmic display.
Composer's haven, where genius takes flight,
Harmony weaves through day and through night.

Great buildings stand, a testament bold,
Whispering stories, centuries old.
People of warmth, with hearts so grand,
In Segovia's embrace, united we stand.

With attention keen, ASR's tested grace,
In every note, each sound we embrace.
A symphony of voices, meticulously accounted,
In Segovia's melody, every test is mounted.

................
......
....
..
.

Long live Zero and Zero Red !!!!

You shoulda made this two posts so we could support each sentiment in turn!
Since you didn't, here's my additional like:

 

[Esprit]

Audiophile is from Latin audīre and Greek philos = the one who likes Audio (reproduction) ≠ Audiofool

ϕιλος

 

[VintageFlanker]

ϕιλος

Indeed ! That's more of a litteral translation.

I hope you mean 'raw materials' like new artists.. rather than green-ish pleasures.

If I was Dimetrios Synodinos; I would have guessed North America was the money-bet.

These [current] numbers beg for a recount!
