Great video Thomas and what an experience. China is definitely carrying the flag for introducing the younger generation to qualify hifi and at the same time making quality hifi affordable for all. Long may it continue.

Awesome video, love the innovation coming out of China.

[DaleCrommie]

Thomas, thanks so much for this tour. It’s fascinating what is available elsewhere. I could have watched a couple of hours of this. 👍👍👍

[sean_heisler]

Wow, so many cool things, man, thanks for sharing!

Great video Thomas, I look forward to seeing further adventures from your trip😅, and I don't mind you looking at the Cosplay models 🤣🤣🤣

I wish more reviewers started paying attention to Chinese Audio. The youth, the innovation and the exuberance portend a significant and growing impact on the hobby. I remember the days when cheap Japanese brands were considered junk, until they dominated the market starting in the 70s. A similar pattern is happening with Chinese brands.

It seems to me that more of the American and European audio press should pay attention or risk irrelevance.

The guy at 10:05 wearing black shirt with the word GODFLESH is dongle, DAP, IEM and headphone reviewer. His channel name is AndyAudioVault.

Really enjoyed this video. People really need to get off Chinese bashing. Their competing favorably now. Right off the bat, what struck was the age. Lots of younger people interested. Audio shows back home their primarily older gentlemen. This is a problem that needs to be addressed

[davecroft]

Your intentions are the most legit! Not chasing an increase in subscribers allows you to build your brand in an authentic way and truly connect. It's great to see you having fun! Cheers!

[aaronlam]

OMG !!! There are many new concepts that my friends and I have not seen in North America.
I am Really Happy that Thomas is sharing such a wonderful experience with us.
Audio gear, Cosplay girls and Foods 🍱 😍👍👍👍

It's incredible to see 👀 the height that China 🇨🇳 has been scaling. They have become obsessed with engineering and technology 👨‍🔧, be it civil, electrical or electronics as also in batteries🔋 and material science. The bigger the challenge, the greater they get excited about executing it. China 🇨🇳 is undoubtedly now the world's best and most advanced country full of people with golden hearts. I wish I could shift to China 🇨🇳! Many thanks for this insightful video 🎥.

This video was so cool! Chinese hifi companies have really pushed the industry forward with excellent engineering. I think their presence in the North American market has made great gear affordable for people with modest budgets. I would be like a kid in candy store at this show!

[robinkleinsteuber]

Wow! Thanks Thomas! What a variety of interesting gear at that show! Shanling, Fiio, the Fosi luxury brand, and SMSL VMV gear all look interesting. Happy listening! 😊👍🎶🎶

[foldspacenavigator]

Very cool Thomas. I would love to see you exploring the headphone sector and for those of us enjoy traditional channel & headphone pathways. I was at the SoCal CanJam and the attendance was something else. Though it was a nice generational mix, the younger audiophile set was there in some force. Many of them love the gear but stated that they looked forward to the next revolution breakthrough via lossless wireless. Cheers!♠️🎸

[vsalasarcr]

Greetings, it's great that you were able to experience and enjoy the event.

[s.daniel]

Very cool! Thanks for sharing your experience.

The Moondrop speakers were interesting to me, because they resemble speakers I bought 45 years ago. Don Kliewer was the creator of the DLK speaker line, hugely popular in the American midwest at the time. Later he owned the Soundmates speaker company, and his little .375 model featured small woofers at the top and bottom of a narrow enclosure, with treble/midrange driver in between. Later he went to work for Koss, where the .375's were sold under the Koss brand. Mine are still at work in my living room, and still sounding good after almost half a century.

It’s really great to see so many young creative entrepreneurs in Asia working in audio-great video some really great industrial design to boot.

[jamesschneider]

We in North America could be having all this energy and development happening here but we made the choice of farming all this tech to China. Education has fallen way behind the Chinese and all this young energy is creating all these very competitive products.

[VisionCarrierDreamCatcher]

First, it was the food for me. Second, the finds you discovered. Third, the price points are accessible for the entrants in the hobby, who are younger. Great episode….
