I think that the main obstacle is finding a suitable (inexpensive) venue. August might be a good time frame, but anything is welcome.

Local libraries could host 13+ people and it’s free. Looking at the Dolley Madison public library, which is very nicely located for MD, DC, and VA people, it has an availability on July 23 throughout the day. I couldn’t see anything in August though - but maybe they don’t let you book so far in advance

Anyone up for Saturday, July 23? Maybe 12-4? Not sure how long people would need.

Go for it... if you see any other responses on this thread, you can go ahead and create a new thread just for that meet. I'll be at the Schiit event in Austin that weekend (so I'll leave my slot open )

I'd be interested in attending, but I might not bring anything but my headphones.

I'll be there! I know HeadAmp and Stax will be in attendance.

On the 2 channel front, give Philharmonic Audio a visit when you're there. Great speaker company that doesn't charge out the nose and HQ'd in Tysons. I have a pair of their BMR Towers and they're awesome.

Oh cool! Yea I'm going so I can test out the GS-X mk2 amp!

HeadAmp on what they're bringing to Capital Audiofest:

"We’ll have all of our amps except the Pico portables and Aristaeus; for headphones a wide variety of flagships like audeze lcd-5, dan clark expanse, stax sr-x9000. And the new Mytek Empire streamer running Roon."

Of course subject to change but it appears like some nice goodies to try out.

It was a lot of fun listening to the LCD-5, Expanse, Utopia 2022, and Susvaras for the first time. I've even put together a list of what gear I'm gonna buy next from attending!
