The Story

The East Coast’s favourite audio show – Capital Audiofest – was host to 2017’s CanMania. This headphone show is in coordination with Headphone.Guru.

CanMania brings together manufacturers, vendors, headphone and personal audio enthusiasts along with the audio industry press.  Sprawling large and wide across the Plaza ballroom, exhibitors have plenty of room and separation for show-goers to avoid the cluttering and lack of elbow room which is often the bane of many headphone shows. There were also “Quiet” rooms available for exhibitors wishing to offer a special VIP, private listening experience. Thirty booths deep, I dove in on Sunday when things had calmed down.
