So many toys, so little time: a whirlwind weekend of high-end headphones. . .CanJam NYC 2018 showcased the latest products and innovations in headphones and personal / portable audio and was the biggest headphone audio show in the United States!

I’m now of the opinion that the CanJams are the only truly worthwhile trade shows for headphone enthusiasts. [The Head-Fi crew] have done an amazing job of putting the world of headphones under one roof.

CanJam isn’t just a must-visit for headphone fans. It’s Mecca, the Boston Garden, the Holy Grail, all rolled into one.

For one special weekend in February, headphone aficionados from around the world gathered at the MASSIVE, 48-story Marriott Marquis in midtown Manhattan. All to try out the latest and greatest headphones, amps, and accessories.

I enjoy attending CanJam because, by and large, the other attendees appear to be having a really good time . . . people of a broader demographic than your typical US hi-fi show were there in numbers having fun. Of course, this mood carries over to the exhibitors as well and one seasoned hi-fi exhibitor told me he enjoys these events, too.

There was a huge line of anxious enthusiasts registering at opening time, [and] I was once again warmly greeted. There was a huge array of exhibitors showing off so many different products. Even if headphones are not your main thing, it is worth checking out; you will surely find something of interest among the wide variety of exhibitors.

Campfire Audio, Meze Audio, Sennheiser, 64 Audio, Audeze, Abyss, final, Ultrasone, MrSpeakers, 1More, and STAX will all unveil new headphones at CanJam NYC 2018, February 17-18, 2018.

CanJam [NYC 2017] drew one of the largest crowds of headphone enthusiasts and audio geeks to New York City. . .CanJam NYC 2018 is highly-anticipated and is expected to be bigger and better than last year. Here’s why:

People who say “never meet your heroes” must have shitty heroes... This is the charming thing about the headphones industry, the thing I don’t see elsewhere in consumer electronics. The engineers and designers of the best and most famed products are within reach for...

Wow! That was hectic but fun. I got to meet some folks I’ve wanted to meet for a long time. . . purveyors of excellent audio. I also got to meet the brains behind Sony’s flagship MDR-Z1R and the WM1Z and WM1A, Naotaka Tsunoda and Tomoaki Sato.

My first London show and what a show it was! [CanJam London] is one of the first shows where the atmosphere was this chill and were everyone was so easygoing and friendly. The room was setup in a way that you always had enough space to freely walk. . .[and] could even...

Across the last weekend of Wimbledon fortnight, the heart of London buzzed to the sound of personal audio, as CanJam came to town. . .CanJam shows are now rolling out across the world. . .

This year’s CanJam London was my second, and seemed to be a resounding success. An impressive list of manufacturers signed up, which inspired a large crowd to show up.
