YAY - finally got the highly anticipated preview video to watch later tonight!! :wink:
Thanks in advance, sight unseen (yet) Jude. See you in less than a week.

OK - could not wait until tonight... so watched it already!
@jude - great preview video, as always. I would also like to thank the great guys behind the camera and the post production... @AxelCloris @joe @third_eye who are the unsung heroes of Head-Fi :)

Yep, been waiting for the video for a few days (once it became clear that its release was probably imminent). Good stuff! :thumbsup:

Cannot agree more. Definitely great stuff. I love those videos before every single CanJam, whether I participate or not.

@jude
Do you talk with Audio Precision about measurements for DACs and amps? I would be interested in getting a few DACs measured (likely during CanJam SoCal, not NYC). I got the Schiit Bifrost Multibit measured at last year's CanJam SoCal, but the output data for their DAC tests seem largely irrelevant compared to, say, what I've seen you, John Atkinson from Stereophile, and others have measured. I tried at CanJam SoCal and at RMAF last year to get the DragonFly Black measured too, but they mentioned something about it not having ASIO drivers if I recall correctly.

Here are the data I got from their measurements:
Project file:
https://mega.nz/#!WFIgybhJ!JAe1nyAL-y_IS7HLUPKmMsGsVeuAyYrUvEVy_fWg4DI

0 dBFS signal
https://mega.nz/#!idQQmb4I!ed4voag9pGVP8MVxEIi5ixahPCD5-tsAZ7qIRJjXqgQ

-12 dBFS signal
https://mega.nz/#!DAhhnZrR!gYN_-Bydazhe5wF_cnh_c_ZwWz976R5IBU6xLFLejys


They could only measure it with coaxial or Toslink inputs, not USB which is what I use 99% of the time.

I'm still hoping Monoprice comes out in next year or two with a budget Electostatic headphone and amp pairing. They have already undercut the planar market by basically copying and pasting Audenze isine 10 and the LCD-2... I still don't know how they get away with copyright infringement, but my wallet is happy. lol

i know it is one day late but I wanted to see if I can get the shirts anyways

luke0203-white-3xl-2 nyc
luke0203-black-3xl-1 nyc

Got it, thanks. For those that still want to reserve shirts for pickup at CanJam NYC, please let me know by Wednesday at the latest. We'll also have a few extras for sale but these usually go pretty fast.

I already reserved two shirts earlier just after you announced reservations were open. I'd like to reserve one more for a friend who doesn't do forums...

m8o-black-M-1-NYC

THANX!

That's probably exactly why; they don't have to do all the heavy R&D work. I mean, MrSpeakers had to build his own cleanroom to produce the VOCE, and that headphone has been in development for at least the last 3 years now.

Due to a family event that I must attend, I unfortunately will not be able attend CanJam NYC 2018. Thus, I have deleted my HE 1 reservation, so hopefully someone else can snag it and enjoy. I've already heard it, and it's definitely a worthwhile use of your time.

Somehow I just don't think that would be a great idea.

Hey, nobody forced you to choose a username with a "69" in it! I don't see anyone else here complaining :p

Sorry, I couldn't help it! I'm not even going to canjam but I do like the nametag idea. I'll have to bring it up the next time one's on my side of the Mississippi. I was just opening the thread to see what all new headphones were announced
