Hey Sebastian, did not know you were here on CS! All the best for the upcoming meet, let me know if I can be of any help. Give my regards to Juliane
Well, I'm new around these parts. But it does feel like coming home, forgive the lofty words.
Juliane says hi, she returned from London last night.

EDIT: Oh, and there's two ways in which you could help:
1) Spread the gospel about the event via your channels
2) Check out the exhibitors' list and let us know if you feel like anybody's missing, Greek or not.

Didn't see Head-fi as a partner of the canjam.de.  I thought "canjam" was a Head-fi exclusive name ?

Thks Marvey.


Then Building a Changstar Private meet in Europ in the same date range than European Canjam could be a good idea .We could mix something CS only and then go together to CJ Europ.  What do you think guys?


For me Private meetings and Canjam are different things. in a private meet we have more time to chat and see people and that"s always more interesting that the gear itself.  Moreover we often benefit from better conditions of listenings for the gear everyone bring. With Negura we talked about the Munich Hi End as well and I know Donald North was there for Riva but Canjam would probably be a better opportunity. 


Maybe some US people who be glad to come in Europ for the meet & Canjam and some holidays in Old Europ  :money:  . Didn"t see Schiit , Eddie Current , DNA and other well regarded American Brands at Canjam Europ  :)p8

In Europe the V.A.T. and aftermath of the financial crisis with the added EU/Greek crisis is still affecting many wallets. In the Netherlands V.A.T. is 21 percent. When my income was higher I avoided the audio stores as via trade and private sales you could get better gear for less money.

The retail market for audio is pretty fucked up depending on which part of Europe you live. That means you either have a high income and you do not worry, you work with a budget or you go DIY.

With non-European audio gear think of running the business, purchasing, import costs, valuta fluctuation and the fucking V.A.T. All this combined gives European audio hobbyists a bit of a disadvantage.

Thankfully the EU is sort of recovering...

No.
