Relieved to hear this, as I would not have take the chance of going in December. Hopefully the world will have made much more progress 13 months from now.

We can only hope ...

I think what he meant is a police joke. When a police officer is no longer with the police force he need to return the badge and gun, this is usually the famous movie/TV show cliche

UPDATE: We hope everyone has had a good and safe summer! While we were really hoping to be able to proceed with CanJam SoCal on December 12-13, we've made the decision to postpone until next year due to the continued uncertainty, and under advisement of the hotel venue. The new show dates for CanJam SoCal 2021 are September 11-12, 2021 and the event will take place at the Irvine Marriott.

This is sad, but it's the right decision given the whole Covid situation. See you all next year!

Head-Fi should create and award a new badge: NoCanJam 2020 SoCal. Same picture, but with an added:

How about this one?

On the bright side I've saved a lot of money not traveling this year, so more to spend on gear! Maybe I can even afford the EE ODIN now.

Yes, that's one good thing about the current situation. I just ordered a Focal Elegia and I have my eye on the upcoming Monoprice Liquid Gold as well. The DCA Aeon 2 Closed is tempting too...

Seriously, I took all my travel money refunds and budgeted expenses and got a ZMF Verite C LTD instead. I was planning to wait until the event when it was June to at least try them first, but oh well. They'll certainly provide more lasting pleasure than a couple brief trips to the mainland would have.

I bought a ZMF Vérité LTD, really looking forward to receiving that. Need to decide what amp I'll get to pair with it.

For the entire team putting on the SoCal Can Jam shows
Thank you for trying, but even more for doing the safe and right thing.
Also it would be hard to say how many of the vendors outside of the country would be able to come
and while Orange County CA got off the CA Covid 19 Watch list just today, who knows what would have come up by Dec.
Yes, let reset and shoot for Sept 2021.

Also give me time to save up for what I'm sure I'll be splurging on show specials next year!

Thanks again

Sorry, I was joking, referencing TV shows where a cop is fired and ordered to “Turn in your badge and your gun!” Just being quippy! Have a nice day!

Just saw this, but the outcome is hardly a surprise. Headphone meets mean sharing things you put on your head after others do, and don't do well with masks and/or social distancing

Interested in attending in Sept (it's like one city over from me so that's cool). Would be my first Can-Jam, so what can I expect? From what I understand you can test HP's and other gear correct? Is there any method to this? Like if I wanted to test Focal Clear MG's and Sennheiser HD800s would I have to make a reservation with both, or do you just walk up and wait in a line for your turn?

Also, is gear for sale there? I saw a YT review where the guy said he was at a Can-Jam and loved the headphones so much he asked to buy them then and there but he couldn't (wouldn't elaborate).
