The LA&OC Audio Society Announces Blockbuster Award!

The Audiophile Recording of the Year!

The LA&OC Audio Society – the largest in the world with over 2500 members – celebrates their 2018 Silver Anniversary with the premier of the sure-to-be-coveted Audiophile Recording of the Year Award. The winner and runner-up will be announced at the LA&OC Audio Society’s Gala on December 2nd with the winner on hand to receive the Society’s unique, hand-made trophy. You just don’t want to miss this one!

The Society’s Blue-Ribbon Judging Panel

The Award is the first to be judged by audiophiles for audiophiles by a Blue-Ribbon Panel under the auspices of the LA&OC Audio Society with Dr. David Robinson, Editor of Positive Feedback, as the Society’s EVP and Award Committee Chairman. Panel members include Founders Dave and Carol Clark of Positive Feedback, SVP Michael Fremer of Stereophile, SVP Gaurav Vij, VP Dean Seislove, and Lifetime Member Dan Meinwald. You simply can’t get better than that.

The Call for Entries

The original albums must be received by the panel by September 30th to be eligible for consideration in 2018. Send the appropriate album media, software, or links in highest resolution to Dr. David Robinson, 9388 S.E. Hunters Bluff Avenue, Happy Valley, OR 97086, USA. Please include the producer, artist, and their contact information and note that no software will be returned.

The Criteria

Eligible recordings are those released between January 1st and close-of-entries on September 30th, 2018. Judging will be based on two major criteria given equal weight: superior technical and recording values, and the quality of the artist's performance. The album may be any style of music on any medium – original, no reissues please -- and must be available for sale in the US.

The Timeline

The winner is to be submitted to the President of the Society by November 1st and presented at the 25th Annual Society Gala in LA on December 2nd. The Gala is also delighted to present Michael Fremer with the Founder's Award, the Society’s highest honor. Additional rules and procedures will be posted on the LA&OC website at www.laocas.com.

The Tease

The Audiophile Recording of the Year Award is one of three big announcements celebrating our Society’s Silver Anniversary. Don’t tell anyone but the Society is lined up to release three state-of-the-art LPs in 2018! You’ll want to hear more about this so stay tuned.
