Trends In Home Audio & Video

This month, Don Loose will discuss recent developments in home HDTV and Audio equipment.

Don Loose has been involved in high fidelity audio and video since childhood. He has been recording live concerts for 40 years and is a card-carrying audiophile. He has 12 years experience selling state-of-the-art home audio and video equipment at Audio Etc. in Centerville, the state's premiere home electronics design center. For five years he wrote a weekly column on home audio and video for the Dayton Daily News, trying to serve both technophiles and technophobes. He currently answers questions about Home AV on WMUB - FM 88.5's Free Advice show. Don will mainly talk about the High Definition Television Revolution: its history, its politics, its technologies, and its performance. But he will also answer your questions about home theater and high-end stereo reproduction.

Don holds a doctorate in sensory biophysics from The Ohio State University.

Here is Don's PowerPoint presentation.

Golden Oldies

Also, did you know that the DMA is approaching a third century? We didn't until Gary Turner mentioned it. And he should know since he's been here for most of that time.

So to celebrate, we are planning a Thirty Three and a Third party. Details are to be finalized but the plan is for a picnic, perhaps pot luck, with DMA providing the hotdogs and hamburgers. We'll be looking for folks to help with the planning committee so if you are interested, let Gary know.

HHAF Hall

Easy Access

Facility is wheelchair accessible.
RTA route 19 runs travels Brandt past Fishburg, one block from the building.

FREE Parking

Plenty of free parking is available at the facility.

Directions

HHAF Hall is one block West of Brandt Pike, just beyond the Huber Heights Post Office.

From I-70, take Brandt Pike (201) South to Fishburg.
From I-75, take Needmore East, then North on Brandt Pike(201) to Fishburg.
From Rte 35, take Woodman Drive North, then Right on Brandt Pike(201) to Fishburg. For your convenience, here's a Google map of 5367 Fishburg Road.

Pizza

After the meeting, we'll enjoy food, beverages, and conversation at C's Pizza, 5186 Brandt Pike, Huber Heights. From the meeting, go east on Fishburg about 0.2 miles to Brandt Pike, then south on Brandt about 0.8 miles to Ci's Pizza.

Reason for Changes

DMA Trustees have been struggling to provide adequate facilities for our monthly General Membership meetings. Both UD and WSU presented challenges. We have been searching for a location that is comfortable for our members, room enough for all attendees, offers free parking, equipped with audio, visual, and internet, and still affordable for the organization. HHAF Hall meets all qualifications. Apple-Dayton meets here regularly.

April was our trial month and it went well. We have reserved the Warrior Room for the coming year.

All are welcome. The meetings start at 7:00 p.m. Guests are always welcome.
