Product Sneak Peaks, CanJam @ Rocky Mountain Audio Fest (RMAF) - Head-Fi TV, Episode 013 - Page 3

Wish I could attend  but excited for all the new products!

I'm really hoping for an Audez'e closed back headphone with good bass impact and awesome imaging

Jude,

 

Great overview!  Exciting stuff.  I think we met briefly at last year's event when I was with Steve Guttenberg. 

 

I will be there on Thursday helping some friend's set up for the high end show.

I hope someone takes a video camera to CanJam and records some highlights. A 20-30 video on the event would be AWSOME!!! (for all the folks who can't attend).

So many news, hope to see some good coverage on these things!

Dang...I would really like to check it out but: 1. it's too far from where I live, 2. I have school

 

Jude, if it's possible, do you think you could upload a photo album of your experiences at CanJam this year?

Hey guys, 

I know a lot of you wish you could make it to the show. I work at HeadRoom and they are sending me to run a liveblog during the three days of the show! I'll be shooting videos, taking photos, streaming seminars, and posting text updates for three days straight! If you'd like to preregister for a reminder when the liveblog starts, or you'd just like to bookmark the liveblog page, the link is below.

 

Also, I'd love to hear what you want to see! If there's a specific talk or product you want more info on, I'll be running around with Jorge and Ben (also from HeadRoom) snagging interviews. 

 

You can check out the liveblog here. Wish you could all be there!

Good to know mikeb.  You might want to PM Jude or another mod for a MOT tag if you plan on posting regularly here.

Hi, can anyone tell me what is the most common file format used to demo these new products??

It varies from rig to rig, but most people are set up either with a CD player, computer->DAC, or both. I would definitely bring a demo CD; you can try bringing your iPod if you want, but obviously the rig probably won't sound as good as whatever higher quality source the exhibitor has set up (unless they have a dedicated iPod transport dock on hand).

I think Audeze is smarter than that (they aren't Apple after all). I think they will leave the LCD2 alone and introduce either a $400-500 entry level headphone, a Stax competitor at around $1500-2000 (which would be there new flagship) or a completely new closed ear design.

These are my predictions.

Let's wait and see.

Awesome! Thanks mikeb_headroom! The new Audez'e, Beyerdynamic, Foxtex, HifiMan, and V-Moda products specifically caught my attention.

 

I can't attend, but I'm practically going to be living here for the next week, trying to soak up all the news I can. Very excited. I'm completely stuck as to what is going to be my next headphone or headphone related gadget (if only I could afford them all and not have to make decisions!), so I'm hoping that the news from CanJam will push me in one direction or another.
