It won't be the same without packing a suitcase full of gear padded by clothes :triportsad:

The dilema is unchanged though - the £250+ for transport and hotel could go a long way towards buying something but buying 'deaf' is a gamble. I guess you now socialise in the queue to get to vendors' stands?
It does feel much more like a corporate manufacturers showcase these days,rather than enthusiast led. I miss the vibe of the first two events that I went to run by Nadeem. The forerunners of CanJam. Nadeem did a fantastic job of bringing people together.
Having said that most people are friendly if you do strike up a conversation. No tables with people trying out each others gear though. I'm not sure I would spend £250 on going but how else are you going to listen to stuff?

It would be great to have an enthusiast led event again one day, but I understand it is a lot of work to organise such a thing. CanJam is a manufacturer showcase, always has been, whereas head-fi meets are more enthusiast led.

Looking forward to my third CanJam London next month! The growing list of exhibitors ensures that there will be lots to see and hear, as well as catching up with fellow Head-Fiers.

In the meantime, enjoying the impressions thread from CanJam SoCal.

I will be there as always since 2015 with the Tera-Player, looking for the best IEM dynamic .
Also , probably the Rai Penta is a must for me.
Looking forward to see you all again and make new friends.
If it is not being too forward, would it be possible to have a listen to the your Terra Payer at Can-Jam London. I have been interested to say the least, but not been willing or able to push the button and buy one as for me an unknown entity.

Your not alone in your interest for the Terra-Player, I’d love to give it a whirl and have also been tempted to hit the button on more than one occasion :smile_phones:
Looking forward to another Canjam and meeting some great people and products

@third_eye Just bought a ticket, but there was no way for me to put my Head-Fi username on the ticket (for the pass that I'd wear around my neck at CanJam).
Is this something that can be done at reception?

Look forward to seeing you again soon! Show attendees will be wearing wristbands for entry/exit and industry attendees (exhibitors, media, and show staff) will be wearing name badges with lanyards.
