Let's have a meetup in Atlanta?

As the title says. I've personally struggled to "break into" the audiophile community in Atlanta, and it's hard to find people and equipment. There is Hi-Fi Buys, but that's it. Would love to try other headphones, swap/trade, and learn more from each other.

I would be interested. I'm in Douglasville so just outside the perimeter.

Would love this. I'm SOP and there is absolutely nothing around here for us.

Love it! If there’s a few more people with interest then I’ll start some work towards an event. I’ll also speak to Hi-Fi Buys.

I'm central AL, if we set it up over a weekend so I didn't have to take off work I'd make the drive

In Cumming, love to meet up

So we got 5 people! Nice! I think 10 may be enough to organize a mini-meetup. Any ideas on what kind of venue we should do it at?

Before Covid, the Atlanta Audio Club (Society?) hosted a really nice headphone meet the first weekend (approx.) of May, if I remember correctly. The year I went it was held just northeast of I-285, in a pretty large (apartment's) clubhouse, and it was completely full. Maybe @purk can fill us in, as I think he is a member and is into headphones. Justin was there from Head-Amp with (a lot of stuff) a Blue Hawaii SE... That was the first time I'd heard electrostats played though world class amplification (both the Blue Hawaii and the KGSSHV Carbon). That was the year before I really took the plunge into a nice headphone setup - heck, if they still host it in May maybe I'd come this year also...

I am not a member of the Atlanta Audio and Video Club anymore but I believe that they did have a small meet last year that I was not able to attend. Not sure about this year though.

We should have a meetup. I've never organized one before. How does it usually work?

You just need a place to meet up and people will come.

New to Atlanta, did we ever have this meet up?

Is there any meet up happening this year?
