British HiFi Appreciation Society (Facebook group)

Unread post by Fretless »

Stumbled across this recently and joined, which is unusual for me as I avoid Facebook like the plague.

Anyhow, it seems to be quite a pleasant place with genuine enthusiasts for UK-based audio gear and a membership of around 17,000.

There are quite a few NVA fans on there and questions about the equipment occasionally come along. Perhaps an 'official' presence in the group might be an idea. Although it is a 'non-trade' setup.

Their membership rules are not dissimilar to HFS : keep it friendly, no bullying/abuse, no spamming/shilling/trolling and no direct selling.

A place to share mutual enthusiasm, ask advice and pass on tips and tricks.

I got a Twitface message saying I had to answer some questions before my account would be approved. There are no questions just a few rules that must be followed . At the bottom is a submit button that doesn't light up and when I click it nothing happens.

Guess I won't be joining that group then. Not the end of the world. It's probably full of the same boring circular arguments that go round and round on the forums I.e dull.

It's quite a nice group. I (NVA) have been a member for a year or so. It was mentioned by someone here, I think. I don't post there because it's not really for trade, but I react to and very occasionally comment on posts
