Canjam Singapore is now on from March 25-26 at Pan Pacific Singapore. It runs from 11 am - 6 pm on March 25 (Saturday) and 10 am - 5 pm on March 26 (Sunday). See you at Pan Pacific Singapore, 7 Raffles Boulevard, Singapore 039595. You can visit the website, http://https://canjamglobal.com/shows/singapore2023/ for more information.
Here are some pictures of the event. I had a brief listen to the Fiio R7, Final D8000 Pro SE, DCA Corina and Expanse, and the DITA Perpetua with Celeste cable.
Dan Clark Audio
 |
| The Corina has stunning bass-lines, and fantastic everything-else. I would have grabbed one if not for the hefty price-tag. |
 |
| The Expanse sounded fantastic and is easily the best magnetic planar headphone from Dan Clark Audio that I've heard. |
Project Perfection / DITA
 |
| The DITA Perpetua with Celeste cable. This will challenge your idea of IEM performance albeit at a cost that few can afford. |
 |
| The Final D8000 Pro SE must be the Baby Bear's Porridge of headphones. Nice organic midrange with extended and sparkling high frequencies. |
