As for CanJam special editions, I haven't seen any in the few CanJams I've attended.

Grado had a special model for CanJam. Sounded pretty good and was priced very competitively. I should have got one...
I cannot recall anyone else with a CanJam special model, though.

A few vendors may have limited stock, such as Campfire Audio and Focal. But most take orders to fill via shipping post CanJam, and most vendors also have a show discount. As for CanJam special editions, I haven't seen any in the few CanJams I've attended.

I always did my best to make sure Noble had some stock at the show. Its a powerful way to sell products, the show discount and you can walk out the door with them.

Since I am volunteering on Saturday, I think my job should be the official SoCal CanJam Ambassador. Which means I just have to walk around and talk to people and take pictures.

Sounds good. It will be great to see everyone again. I'm fully vaccinated but I plan to wear a mask while indoors anyway.

Looking forward to this. Hoping to demo some Wells Audio products, like the new Dragon.

Excuse me guys. I have never been to a canjam. Will Headphones.com have all the inears on their website to demo. Should I contact them to see what they will be bringing.

It's probably best to contact them - especially if there's a particular model that you're interested in.

It seems improbable that they'll have every model in their inventory on hand for demos. From what I see their website has 43 entries in the in-ear category. Like Odin mentioned above, you should reach out to them to see if they're going to have specific models you're looking to try.

That's what I thought. I sent an email & will wait for a reply.
Thanks

In addition to the other advice provided thus far, I would recommend looking at the exhibitors and deciding what items you want to demo and make a list to have with you. That way you can keep notes and make sure you listen to the gear you definitely want to hear, assuming it's at the show. You'll be surprised how quickly the day goes by.

Also, take time to listen to some high end gear to gain an appreciation, there are many items I'll demo for the experience and building my knowledge, even though I'll never purchase them.

Also, manufacturers such as Campfire, EE, JH Audio, 64 Audio, ZMF and Focal will typically have their full, current line-up at their booths.

During my 1st CanJam (in 2016) I auditioned quite a few items "I will never buy".
5 years later, I own several of those...
"Never say never" comes to mind

Guess it doesn't help when you have a bad influence telling you to "Just buy it, just buy it!"
