CanJam Singapore 2022 Show Report By Kok Chieat Wong

  What caught my eyes initially were the machined aluminum headphone enclosures. I was then told that they are the enclosures for the Cal.1H, the first open-back headphone from Altiat. Cal.1H uses 50mm in filled polymer electrodynamic drivers that are said to have a wide excursion to reproduce deep bass with ease, but without the difficult load. My initial thought was that it must be quite tiring to wear such heavy headphones but a demo proved me wrong. The adjustable support headband made the whole experience quite comfortable.

Cal.1H comes in many different colors.

This is something special from the Cal.1H lineup. Instead of aluminum, this wood finishing is machined from a solid block of Ashwood while maintaining the exact same dimensions as the aluminum model.

I was then introduced to another product, the RR1 Conquest, an open baffle electrostatic headphone. The RR1 Conquest was the first headphone product from Kaldas Research and that set everything in motion for Kaldas Research since its introduction in CanJam SoCal 2019. What sets Kaldas Research apart is that everything is manufactured in-house, and nothing is sourced or OEM-ed from outside. Mind you, the proprietor, Mr. Aumkar, is just in his 20s and is inspired to build quality products of supercar standards, the like of Horacio Pagani. With such vision and passion, I am sure Altiat and Kaldas Research will go places.

As we come to the end of the CanJam SG 2022 report, I have a few disclaimers to make. This report was done to cover, as complete as possible, the products on display. However, due to crowd conditions, there were times when the products were being tested by other patrons and were difficult to grab hold of. Thus, there are bound to be missed products. And if there is any wrong product information, I do appreciate it if you could inform us for correction.

Your patience is very much appreciated and I hope you have enjoyed CanJam SG 2022 as much as I did!
