Not sure if this is the right place to put it, but I had a curious question that I thought might be interesting to some (at least for college students). As you could probably already guess, I am a college student. I remember when school first started, I looked for clubs that might be interesting to me. I looked to see if there was an audio, audiophile, or music club and it turns out my school had none. They didn't even have an AV club to my surprise. Then I thought about how cool it would be if head-fi expanded their organization to include clubs on college campuses. I know this sounds like a far-fetched idea, and deservedly so. Being an audiophile at a young age is probably not that common. Still, I thought that if there were audiophiles, they would at least be more attracted to a club if the club was organized by head-fi itself. And of course, I also feel that sponsors would get their money's worth if they sponsored these "branches."
But if head-fi thought this would be a good idea, I'm guessing that they would already have done it. There are some problems to this idea, of course. Here are some that I could think of...
-Well, lets just say that most schools aren't near Head-fi HQ.
-Too many schools to reach out to
-Difficult to manage
-College students probably won't spend that much on headphones
-Audiophile is still a niche hobby
I would definitely appreciate it if some of you have any other ideas to add to this conversation. And like I said, I know something like this isn't probable, but it is something that I would be really excited about. (Head-fi meets every week right next door and head-fi sponsors it? OMGWHATTHISWOULDBEADREAMCOMETRUEJUDEPLEASEMAKETHISHAPPENAHHHH). I will also leave a poll because everyone likes polls.
