28 days to go...

I've kind of got used to wearing a mask while shopping, but my wife still hates it. For me, the joys of CanJam outweigh the discomfort of wearing a mask, but YMMV, of course.

Yeah, fortunately, we don’t need to cover our ears with the mask.

Really looking forward to hearing the Empire Ears EVO and the Meze Elite Empyrean. Two of my favorite headphones (Legend X and Empyrean) that have been adored for years now have their successors coming out at the same time?! RIP wallet.

I wasn’t aware of the new Empyrean. I’m looking forward to hearing the EVO as well as the two new Vision Ears’ flagships too. The other IEM I’ve got my eyes on is the U18s, I really like the new shell design and from what I’ve read, its tonal signature may be right up my alley.

Again guys:

We've deleted some posts that contained at least one member's risk analysis, medical suggestions, etc. (as well as some posts in response to those posts). With the preponderance of information about COVID-19 statistics, vaccines, masking, etc. available to all, we suggest all of you look at as much information as you can to come to a decision on whether or not to attend. We do not think this thread is the appropriate place, for example, to recommend which vaccine to get.

We understand everyone's concerns regarding COVID-19, given that this is an in-person event. Again, we are in regular contact with the event venue, and we are continuing to monitor the COVID-19 situation carefully.

Please read this quoted post (below) in its entirety:



Please note that these guidelines are subject to change, as we will continue to monitor and comply with the applicable laws and regulations.

We will be posting further updates as we lead up to the event.

But you'll see me!
Well, maybe not a compelling reason...

But you'll get to hang out with us, and all the great gear that begs to be auditioned, and no masks during lunch/dinner/drinks so we can socialize after the show.
Obviously, do whatever works for you my friend, but I hope a piece of fabric not gonna prevent you from coming...

OK you convinced me. I’m going to have a bottle of water in my hand the whole time I’m there as I’m always thrusty.

I didn't see Beyerdynamic on the exhibitor list. I hope that they are able to attend - I would love to try their new T1.3 and T5.3 headphones.

 

[HiFiHawaii808]

I have to attend. Where else on the planet can I hear a ZMF Pendant SE, Forge 32/300, 8/100 and a McIntosh MHA200 all in one place? I am bringing 4 pairs of headphones with me to see who wins the shoot out and takes my money.

Wow! Including cases and cables, that's like a whole carry-on right there!

I'd also advise you to bring a reference portable rig that you are sonically very familiar with. You may or may not want to have such a rig handy, to possibly audition some headphones, which have not yet been announced/launched, that may or may not be at the show, that I absolutely cannot talk about right now. You have been warned.

Will do. I will have my iBasso DX300 and Cayin C9,

Hey Warren, long time no see my friend!
That comment may or may not be useful, and some people may or may not get anxious because of it...

 

[Mohjong]

I've seen pictures of those blue plastic earmuff cover on the pads at chinese headphone shows. Wonder if some will use the same thing here that could potentially ruin the audio reproduction. But I might as well as find out myself since it's a 20 minutes drive.

Excellent!

Yes sir! Looking forward to it! You can fill me in on your new role at Lucid at the show.

And yes, lol, I would imagine that some people would get agita from what I said. Personally, one of those things may or may not be something that I've been looking forward to for two years now... TWO YEARS.
