Welcome to the Drinking Fountain!
The Watercooler is a very well known thread for IEM discussion started by @Rockwell75, but there is nothing similar for full-size headphone enthusiasts. Therefor, on this day, the 4th of January, 2024, the Drinking Fountain has been created for just such a purpose. Everyone is invited as long as they maintain a friendly demeanor - everyone is entitled to sharing their opinion as long as they are polite about it. As @Rockwell75 said it best: "We are gathered here to share impressions, to participate in discussions, to cultivate love & enthusiasm for this hobby and to partake in the joy of fellowship and community."
Thread expectations: Thread discussions will be centered around full-size headphones and associated sources (DACs/AMPs/Streamers, etc.) There is no “off topic” here, some of the best discussions revolve around the moments we experience while listening to music - walking the dog, enjoying beautiful scenery, drinking coffee on the patio, or even attending a CANJAM. That said, please remain respectful at all times and remember that just because you don't like a set of headphones, someone else likely loves them. Please share photos, impressions, comparisons, discussions on sound, music, albums, and tuning. Also, please ask questions - this is the place to ask for information on which full-size headphones to buy and what may pair really well with them. Avoid double posting if possible and use the quote feature to reply to multiple people in one reply - this is not the place to get your Headphoneus Supremus status with a double or triple posting.
Build friends - build a family. This may be the only place people understand you love of the hobby.
