istanbul hifi club audiophile club of turkey
Conceived and founded on the fifteenth of February 1995 by fifteen founding members in Istanbul the Istanbul HiFi Society consists of hi-fi enthusiasts who like to share their experience and encounters with hi-fi culture. With the exception of the February dinner which is an annual celebration of the inaguration of the Club, the members gather at regular monthly meetings for lunch which usually are concentrated on a specific subject either hardware or software. The general focus is on hi-fi and music but sonic properties in general have a tendency to have the first priority within topics. The president and the board of directors are chosen by yearly elections with strict restrictions on the presidents post which can not exceed one term which starts at the inauguration meeting of the new board in October for a one year period. The regular yearly meetings end in June, except a non official mid summer afternoon bar meeting is held in August. The members try to spread the hi-fi culture as a natural duty of serving the public in their primary field of interest and raise funds to help musicians on their recording venues and/or health treatments whenever appropriate.
