Not sure if this is the right place for this but someone pls convince me that Canjam SG is worth fighting for the weekend off to go.

Donno why but Im not really feeling the hype form this years releases.
Ultimately it depends on what you're going there for. Many people are flying in from the States to attend this so there is value for sure. I am flying in myself and am just looking forward meeting people and perhaps trying out an iem or two, but ultimately it is to catch up with cooler folks, wear the badge and makan!

What does the red atom do?
It's very "open back" while retaining sub-bass and doesn't cook the treble. It's what makes the RN6 extra chef's kiss (they also make a normal sized one, it's the super tiny version in the RN6 universal)

So get the smallest one in the universal size? Sounds fun.

Hol'up. See what the Grand Maestro uses. You're most likely gonna go with XL if the modules are the same as 64 Audio. The XS are this small. You chose the correct one though.

My yang to Anni, I’m in the family!
Now a cool nick name for it. Gm? Jim?
Are they as bassy as maestro mini? Or they are more like the Scarlet Mini? After having a taste of the maestro mini, I’m starting to think about the GM. Having (not)APEX module is a big plus.

I think that feeling of being lonely at CanJam is very common. I have had that both times at Dallas and NYC but eventually you sort of get used to it and realize that everyone is kind of doing their own thing and everyone is there for the same reason. I wouldn’t let this discourage you from attending more in the future!

Also if you ever want to chat most of the vendors and attendees are happy to have conservations. I had an awesome time chatting to @bogdan belonozhko at the FiR booth for about 20 minutes as well as @Chang at NightJar just to name a few. Speaking to some of the vendors and reviewers was probably my favorite aspect of CJ NYC.

:)
I'd rather feeling lonely in the crowd than to feel not being alone when I'm actually alone 👻😨

Nope, the (Black NOAH Vocal off) GM's bass and tuning profile is perhaps the most "balanced" of the Maestros.

Started watching the pretty disturbing TV show ‘From’ in the last few days… delighted I did mostly as I’ve discovered this stunning Pixies cover as a result.

Are you sure GM is compatible with ATOM? I haven't seen that confirmed anywhere.

Another interesting shot from the show. Wonder what was going through the mind of a legendary Steve "Audiophiliac" Guttenberg as he was trying to take a selfie with Femme Fatale audio-amp-robot :D
