Can I buy the t-shirt without attending the show? TYSM

We're not able to ship these, but if you know someone attending in Dallas that can pick it up for you, then sure!

I missed the Fugaku at SoCal, so am interested in hearing them this time.

Highly recommended. That’s something worth experiencing for sure!

The entire line of “voiced” Lazuli cables will be showcased at the Dallas CanJam on November 2-3, 2024, along with the DanaTone Head-Space amplifier.
Danacable’s new line of “voiced” Lazuli™ cables is custom designed to bring out the best in each “top of the line” (TOTL) headphone while retaining its sound signature. We introduced the Lazuli Voilà for the Hifiman Susvara at the NYC Canjam in Mach 2024, followed by the Lazuli Vocalise for the Abyss 1266 and the Lazuli Poème for the Focal 2022 Utopia in September, and finally, the Lazuli Rêve for the Audeze LCD-5 in October.
Come to the Danacable booth and hear one of the best headphone setups - when only the best will do! From now until November 29, we will offer the introductory price of $4495, including free shipping worldwide, on all four “voiced” Lazuli models.

That was so funny.

I've never been to a CanJam before and am seriously considering flying to Dallas to attend my first show. Are there any guides for Noobs on what to expect? After reading the SoCal thread, I feel like everyone is bringing their gear to baseline what they hear. Is everyone doing that?

What advice do you wish you had known/followed before attending your first CanJam?

I’ve been to one other can-jam and I found it very helpful to bring a pair of my favorite closed headphones and a DAP with my favorite music. I was looking for a new amp at the time so it made sense to try with the music and phones I was going to use it with. It’s certainly not necessary though.

One of the challenges of a can-jam is the main floor noise levels are louder than your typical at-home listening environment so it is often hard to get a good comparison of open headphones. Some of the headphone exhibitors had listening rooms that were much quieter and you could do meaningful comparisons there.

The exhibitors are generally very accommodating if you want to try your gear with their equipment (though ask first). Bring a few adaptors and cables so you can match up with the gear you’re auditioning.

Really worth the short drive!

Totally agree! Food was awesome, as well as the company last year.

Totally agree. Some of the quietest times are late in the day Saturday and early Sunday and late Sunday . Not too late Sunday because vendors are looking to pack up and get back home but most are fine if you get there by 4. The noise level on the main floor is not as much as it is in SoCal and NYC and open backs can reasonably be heard. While SoCal and NYC are so much fun I think Dallas is one of the more enjoyable CanJams for me. Less than a month away can’t wait.

agree with the above from @Barnstormer13 and @buke9

at CanJam SoCal and NYC, I ended up carrying put an open back and closed back headphones with me so I can enjoy isolation when needed (most of the time), and also stress test amps with harder to drive headphones. Closed back is a big benefit to have.

CanJams should come with strong warnings that once you leave, you catch the spending bug which will take months to wear off. I've now got a new list of things to buy after attending the London CanJam....be warned! It's an addiction.

I've got a list as long as my arm of things to buy and I haven't even made it to a CanJam yet!
