At the famous exhibition of personal audio CanJam, held in London, the company Fiio presented a number of novelties. Of course, other companies are also the first to demonstrate their products at the exhibition, but Fiio event was clearly the largest.

I first had a chance to listen to the Sonoma Acoustics Model One at the CanJam SoCal headphone show in Los Angeles in April. . .These headphones are intended for lounge-chair listening—perhaps while nursing a favored cocktail.

I had a good time visiting the Chord booth at CanJam this year. The two British gents including sales manager Colin Pratt were very amicable, even a bit entertaining as far as booth-side stop-and-chats go. They have a lot to be happy about. Chords move into portable/transportable DAC/Amps has been a swift and successful one. 

THX is usually associated with certifying the performance of commercial cinemas and consumer audio and video products. But the company is also deeply involved in developing new technologies and licensing them to manufacturers.
