CanJam Global Press

I was treated to a demonstration of the Smyth Research Realiser A16 demonstration at CanJam NYC 2017. Nearly everybody who heard the demo had a hard time at first believing the speakers weren’t still on, the surround over headphones was that convincing.

CanJam NYC was a return to roots in many ways for the personal audio community. . the organizers at CanJam Global had been eyeing a return to the Big Apple with the growing success of their events in Southern California, Denver, London and Singapore. 

This year was the first CanJam to happen in NYC. . .About 2,000 CanJammers are estimated to have come. 

We spent an exciting weekend at CanJam NYC to find the best new headphones hitting the market. This is our CanJam NYC Headphones review.

Watch and listen at Jana circulates CanJam NYC and asks show-goers and industry luminaries a couple of pertinent questions.

Even though everyone is still reveling over the big game this weekend, we had other things along w/ that going on.  Namely, the 1st CanJam show in NYC that took place at the Marriott Marquis in Times Square on both Saturday & Sunday.

We check out headphones and amps at CanJam NYC 2017 from the likes of Schiit, Sennheiser, HiFiMan, Sony, Audeze, Periodic Audio, and THX. Narration, video, and music by Mark Henninger.

Spent time at #CanJam this weekend in NYC & here are some of the awesome headphone & Audio Products I saw & listened to. . .HIFIMAN HE1000 V2, Noble Audio, AudioQuest NightOwl and Dragonfly, and so much more.

Right smack within  the hustle and bustle of the Theater District of NYC (across from The Lion King on Broadway, very close to Times Square) was the venue for the CANJAM NYC 2017; the 6th Floor of the New York Marriott Marquis Hotel.

Outside of RMAF, this was my first CANJAM. While I am not a headphone kinda guy, I am someone who enjoys seeing people enjoy themselves, especially when its all sorts of people. In this regard, CANJAM ranks right up there with Munich High End, my favorite hi-fi show in the entire world!

CanJam London 2016 was a resounding success, and it was great being able to show gear as well as being able to highlight certain equipment that may not have been listened to. Meaning, if you weren’t able to listen to certain equipment that I brought, you can read my thoughts on some of the equipment a little later in this impressions post.

North America’s biggest headphone and personal audio expo is coming to the Big Apple

CanJam Singapore 2017 is on! SAVE THE DATE

Yes, it’s finally happening and CanJam is coming to the Big Apple! We’re very excited to announce CanJam NYC 2017!

Being a traditional ‘Hi-Fi’ type, I’ve never been to a dedicated headphone show before, so this was a new experience for me – and an informative one too. The first observation I had was that CanJam [is] a very different type of show to the typical Hi-Fi event. . . Visitors can get round a lot more in the day, simply because everything is so close, and because you can see everything it allows you to pick the display that has a listening station available – no waiting in queues to listen to a system in a crowded room. This all seems to change the dynamic of the show with visitors appearing to be far more relaxed and unhurried.
