Nothing planned that I'm aware of. As always, these things need someone to take the lead and get things moving. Would be great to have another meet though, and I'd be happy to input to the organisation.

Not that I have that much kit, or that much experience but opinions are always my own and honest to my experience (Thats what counts right?). A Vodka tonic and a bit of headphone listening would not go a miss in LONDON!!

 

Edit: That is just me over enthusiastically pushing my case for London lol.

Funnily enough I was wondering about another UK meet and would be willing to assist with the organisation/logistics.

Though a more central location would be fairer as everything tends to be London centric - Cambridge or Milton Keynes possibly?

Cheers.

Even I wouldn't mind helping out. Really liked the last two meets and thanks to jr41 for making the last one possible. We should be doing this one every year I feel.

I'm probably going to regret this but...

 

OK, we all agree that last years head-fi meet was a resounding success and that meeting up with fellow enthusiasts, trying out different gear and chewing the metaphorical cud was great fun, so I'm willing to arrange a meet this year probably in September. 

 

I'm thinking somewhere in Cambridgeshire with good access to the M11. Village halls are reasonably cheap to hire, have plenty of on-site parking, should be fully accessible and most have kitchens for beverage making. 

 

Initially, I need to gauge interest, so please PM me if you are (a) willing to help with the event organisation, or (b) keen to attend.

 

If we can demonstrate a groundswell of interest and point dealers/distributors to this thread they may want a display table and offer sponsorship to help cover event costs and/or prizes for a raffle. Based on last years event, sponsorship enabled the organisers to make it free entry, which is my aspiration for September too.

 

Ideas, thoughts, offers of help, venue suggestions, Valium etc etc welcomed!  

 

Andy.

I would love to attend the next meet ( I had to miss the last one in London as i had a funeral to attend). One around Cambridgeshire would be really good. I think the idea of hiring a village hall is excellent. Parking shouldn't be too bad. I would be more than happy to pay an admittance fee to help cover the costs of the venue. I would be bringing along my humble setup and plenty of music.

OK guys,

 

So the village hall is a good idea and I'm waiting to hear back from a couple of parish councils about cost and availability. 

 

Any ideas how to raise the meeting profile would be appreciated. 

 

Cheers.
