Never been to a canjam before, trying to figure out a way to attend this one. Are there usually great deals to be had on high end iems there? Or mostly to try things?

Have a look at last year's specials: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/canjam-nyc-2019-february-16-17-2019.893794/#post-14612159
Should give you an idea (although this year could be different, of course).

I entered the Beyerdynamic raffle last year and won an Aventho wireless.

Does anyone who hasn't stayed in the Marriott have any suggestions on how they bring gear to listen to? If there's a better way to do so than stuffing them in a backpack, please share.

Woah. The normally large contingent of vendor participants from China wont happen this year. US government currently announcing incredibly strict mandatory travel restrictions and quarantines. Not just the most affected provinces but those from or had visited all of China (if I heard right).

Nope. That's what I do.

Lat year I stayed a 10 minute walk away from the Marriott. I just used one of my smaller photo bags to hold gear during the walk to the Marriott and while at the show. I was also able to have a bottle of water with me as well, however, there were water stations around the show floor last year. For this year's CanJam, I'm in the Marriott and will use a small camera bag again. I think they work great to hold DAPs, IEMs, associated gear and a water bottle. Any briefcase with a shoulder strap or backpack would suffice as well, as long as your gear is in some type of case inside the backpack, etc.

Yes, unfortunately, our China-based exhibitors will be affected and we'll be posting a more detailed update on this as soon as we can determine how these travel restrictions will impact specific exhibitors. CanJam NYC 2020 is still on track to be the largest CanJam NYC to date. Will update the thread with more information when I have it and looking forward to seeing everyone in 2 weeks!

In the meantime, let's try and think happy thoughts.......like bagels, pizza, deli, and CanJam!!

That sucks for those exhibitors not being able to make it, hopefully they will still have some representation from the various dealers/retailers at the show. I'm hoping someone will have the FiiO M15 on hand.

Will there be a YouTube Preview for the NYC CanJam?

Damn, already putting the pressure on us! The preview videos are usually posted between 5 and 8 days before the show.

 

[Litlgi74]

Awesome.... excited to see it ... but definitely more excited to attend.

Folks, roll up, roll up! We’ve got a CanJam NY Exclusive for you!

A new product, a very special new product, will be on show and we need your ears!

It's wrapped in sexy dark-blue chassis. And while familiar, has its own unique edge.

We’ve teamed up with DROP to bring you an exclusive.

The DROP CAN – a headphone amplifier capable of working with many different cans, but tailored to match DROP's Sennheiser HD 6xx in a very interesting way!

At the push of a button, its fully analogue EQ filter pushes the HD 6xx to the max.

Come and see us at CanJam NY! Test the DROP Sennheiser HD 6xx with and without the DROP CAN's 6xx tuning! Hear the difference.

You’ll not be disappointed. See you there.
