Will it be possible to buy stuff at this years show?
I really hope so, as much of the stuff is not available in my home country (Norway).

 
Yes, some exhibitors will be selling directly or through retail partners at the show.

MrSpeakers added to exhibitor list!

For people looking for cheap (for London) rooms in central London, I suggest looking at university halls, many of which are within walking distance of the venue.
These are university "dorm" rooms that are used as bed and breakfast places during vacations. The standard is that of typical B&B.

It's not very long since I lived in one of those places!

Good to see that CanJam is gaining momentum

My own Head-Fi interest was waning due to heavy investment in both my PC and AV setups, but - with the combination of being a participant at the event, getting a 1Plus2 on extended loan (I cannot see any reason why I won't keep them!), and - today, getting a Sony ZX2 DAP, I'm very much back in the Head-Fi mood

Back with a bang by the sound of it!

Wow, good score!  

 
I've also been looking into local alternates for lodging as I expect the Hotel Russell to sell out.  Seems like there are a few surrounding hotels that - while not on par with the Russell in terms of luxury or convenience - are nonetheless fantastic deals.  For example, the Tavistock Hotel (only a few blocks away) has single rooms for only 78 pounds:  http://www.mylondonhotel.com/imperial_london_hotels.htm
 

today, getting a Sony ZX2 DAP

 
Really?  I haven't heard it, but have heard good things about its sound.  How's the pairing with the 1p2?

Very early in the ZX2 cap burn-in phase, however - the DAP lifts the mids of the 1Plus2, and - bass, oh - that bass...

Even more compelling than tonality though is the imaging, fantastic little combination - and, one-box, too

Sounds like you've got a winning combo mate!  

 
Yeah, that expansive presentation in the 1p2 is really something.  And taken together with the bass, I found it akin to a D7000, albeit slightly less airy at the top end.  Well, I think you know what must me done (if you like it, then you should put a ring on it 

).

I think i will be able to come hope to meet many European HeadFiers there

And some of us from the States as well?  BTW, it was nice to finally meet you in Munich.  

 

[Cagin]

Yeah meeting headfiers was,the main reason why I wanted to attend, especially putting faces behind the names. So I figured the best way to to do that was to volunteer for Can Jam staff

looking forward to share impressions about the zx2 there

Exactly same for me.
 
So... I have a suggestion:  since many of us are known here by their avatars and their Username rather than by their real name, I believe we should all of us wear a Badge with AVATAR + Username so that we can reconise each-other.  Badges with only "real" name will not help to reconize us ...
 
something like this...
 
                                                    
 
 
 
 
What do you think ? may be CanJam's people can organise this or send a template or send the suggestion with each registration ?
