Hi @third_eye, I'd also love to catch these talks from Rob, but won't make Singapore this year Is there any chance Rob will be repeating these talks at the SoCal CanJam?

I asked the Chord team when CanJam NY was going on and at the time they couldn't confirm. I really hope so too!

Shanling is heading to Canjam Singapore!!

Well, not big crew...actually just me.. So If you see tall white guy at Jaben table, stop by to say hi.

(gonna bring some stuff for possible giveaway)


And maybe one surprise....

couldn't we get videos of those seminars like with RMAF. I wouldn't mind if it's also months after the event to give some extra value to participating to the real thing. it's sad to have relevant information meant to be shared, but ending up kept to a stupidly small circle of people.
I'm asking for this but I understand that first, someone has to be there to record and bother to try and get ok audio, but also that almost any participant may refuse and there would be nothing to do about it. still I'm fairly sure I'm not the only one in a galaxy far far away, who would love to see some of those seminars.

Yeah, I didn't plan on buying anything during the show... and then placed an order for the M4U 8 after visiting their table. For anyone going to the SoCal show, make sure to talk with Paul Barton. Not only a legend of the Audio world, but very down to earth and will explain every detail of his products.

I always go to CanJam not planning on buying anything... and so far, I’m 0 for 2 on being able to resist. There’s just too much good gear out there!

Will there be demo sessions for the Sennheiser HE 1 at CanJam Singapore this year?

I’m excited to attend my first canjam. Any tips for the socal event that might be helpful?

1.) Unless you know what you want to see, hear, and buy, get a multi-day pass.

2.) Write down what interests you on at least three sheets of paper, labeled headphones, in-ears or earbuds, and DACs or Amps.

3.) If you can get the vendor list and map before the event, write down which interested item is at their assigned vendor table, which room/hall they reside, and which floor and building the room/hall can be found. Otherwise, you can wait until the first day of the event to do this as well.

4.) Once you know where you are going, make note of all the bathrooms, elevators, and stairways around your intended visiting areas. Making note of where restaurants, cafes, and corner stores are is also useful.

5.). If you intend to check out any scheduled seminars or mini-meets, make sure you put an alert(s) on your phone, or write it down on a sheet of paper and keep some kind of watch.

6.) Keep a backpack with you, so you can have a place to put stuff with you. If you want to make comparisons, do not bring more than one headphone, earbud/IEM set, portable DAC/Amp, DAP, or anything used for comparison.

7.) If areas get crowded, please use good judgement and be polite. If you want to demo something and that area is crowded, make sure that there is a line or not. If there is a line, get in it and once it is your turn with others behind you, do not take more than five minutes or one song, as others are waiting and you can get back in line. If there is not a line, ask the person behind the table if you can demo the item. If there is no person behind the table or they are busy, please wait a minute or two, until they can help you.

8.) Do not be a slob and leave cups, bottles, plates, napkins, or other trash on tables or other places that trash does not belong. This also goes with brochures and other vendor info pieces, which go into your backpack.

9.) If you followed all of the above tips, then you can enjoy the show for what it is worth.

I will add, definitely bring your own eartips for trying out IEMs(better to use your favorite tips than random offer from vendor) and micro SD card filled with your testing tracks, so you can try all the new portable players. Including the Shanling one

If you want to listen to a DAC or Amp bring your own headphones. I made that mistake during my first CanJam and I regretted it. I didn't make that mistake this year! Also, feel free to talk to everybody! Lastly, wear comfy shoes.
