Hi there,
I am moving back to the PNW, in January 2015 and would like to see if there are interests in forming a group in Western Washington (Puget Sound) group. Don't know if there are existing groups, etc...but well...Who's interested in starting something?

Wow, aren't there more audio"philes" in Western Washington? :scratch:

I guess I'm the only other "pile" here :scratch:. Probably the only one on the Olympic Peninsula.

Yes, I love the Olympic Peninsula, it's been awhile since I was last at the Hurricane Ridge...Love that drive...

I am interested. There are many in the Puget Sound area. Finding time will be the key.

agreed, time is always the "obstacle".

Well worth it, so let's talk about this when you get moved and settled. :)

Good plan!

Just in case you don't find enough interested 'philes' in your area, there are a few of us crazies in Oregon who aren't put off by a 4 hour drive. Of course, timing is important.
Currently, I'm not in OR; I'm on the other side of the Pacific pond till March. You're welcome to fly over to Taiwan for a little GTG. :thumb:

Michael,
Well, that's fine with me...I used to live in P-Town and have friends there. I am assuming you are near there and I would open to coming down as well!
Cheers and enjoy Taiwan.

I'm a little surprised as well Tuan. Though I'm more an enthusiast than 'phile' I'd be interested. I know there are a handful of folks here (at AC) in the area. I'd guess depending on scheduling Laura might be willing to make the occasional run over the mountains as well. Keep us posted on things, I know I for one would love to see that beautiful work of mechanical art you built in person. :thumb:

Tuan,
Hi! When I'm not 'phooling' around in Taiwan, I can usually be found in Corvallis. 2016 will be a bit special in that I'll be traveling across the southwest (Texas, N.M., Colorado, Montana, British Columbia, WA, OR) from April till September or October. Then (if all goes according to very loose plans), my wife and I will return to Taiwan for another 6 month stint. [We're struggling to decide just where it is we want to spend all our time - PNW, Taiwan, P-Town, elsewhere??]
Aldcol is just south of my location, and there are a few 'philes' hiding out in Portland.

ArthurDent,
What? You're 'JD' and not 'AD'?!? I'm shocked and confused. My whole world order has been turned upside down. It'll take me months to re-organize my mind. Perhaps I'll feel better after a round of new music. :banana piano:
Regards,
Mr. Esseguie :lol:

I think there are at least 3 head-fi groups in the Seattle area - Pacific NW Audio Society, Head-Fi, and I think one other.
This is a pretty active community.

I am a beginner and I am from Bellingham.

Hey. The posts on the topic seem to be old, but I'm hoping the 'philes' are still active.
I'd be interested in creating or participating in a group.
-
I would be interested. I live in Federal Way.

Well, anyone willing to host something?
I am in Gig Harbor.
-
I would be willing to host (around 10 people) or go to a meetup within a 90min drive.

You're it!
You can host the inaugural meeting, 4 years 6 years in the making! :)

Ok. This will be my first so any suggestion on logistics and protocol would be appreciated.
How about 2 weeks from today? Around 2pm? Date can be changed depending on what works best for the majority.
-
of course!
you pick the a few dates that works for you, let us know how many you can host, share with us your system, what you prefer to listen to (vinyl, digital or streaming), what time works, etc.
Give a chance for the members to respond as to what the interest or count will be. I would keep it short for the first one, unless there's space to hang out outside of the listening area, like out door space, etc.
That would be a good start.
Thanks for volunteering!
