The intention is for Head Fidelity (Head-Fi) to be permanent. I encourage headphone enthusiasts to visit both. I'll still be posting at HeadWize, and hope Chu will also continue to post here too. It's likely that both will continue to evolve individually in unique ways. We've got some pretty cool stuff planned over here, and I'm sure Chu has some cool stuff planned for HeadWize too. The more resources we headphoners have, the better shot we've got at having permanent meeting places.
The headphone enthusiast community is a fast-growing community. Conversion to our insanity is quicker than, say, with $20,000+ room-filling hi-fi rigs. Simply throw your good headphones on the ears of anyone who appreciates good music, and (unless they're sporting one of the fancy hi-fi rigs) they'll likely say they've never heard music sound so good out of electronics before. People with little or no experience with hi-fi are more easily convinced to purchase a good pair of headphones than to make monumental initial investments in a big hi-fi system (of course, they'll likely find out later that this hobby will carry them closer to budget-busting audio equipment investments).
What's my long-winded point? My point is that this generally more affordable form of hi-fi is a far more communicable contagion than the often much pricier big rig hi-fi, especially as a start. The headphone hi-fi hobby shrinks the barriers to entry into the traditional world of hi-fi. It's my firm belief that this hobby's only going to get significantly more popular.
My point, again, is that, due to the obvious growth of our hobby, the more resources we have, the better.
Stick around. It's only going to get more fun.
