Been to the Newport show 3 times, liked it a lot. Easy access good room for the money. Not sure if i go this year since they moved it to Anaheim, room rates will be hire for equal room or less quality room. plus you will mobbed with the Disneyland crowd. not as easy to get to.
Any Recommendations? Southern California Audio Shows & the California Audio Show Oakland
One of the two Southern California audio shows is scheduled for early June (Los Angeles) and the other one in late September (Newport Beach). Please see these links:

I cannot decide which one I should go to. What is your recommendation? I cannot determine Thanks.
The California Audio Show is also scheduled for July 28-30 in Oakland at the Hilton Oakland International Airport. The last show was NOT very well attended. This show is being planned by Constantine Soo (California Audio Show, San Francisco/Silicon Valley). Since it is local, I will go to this show.

I attended the Newport show for many years but this year I'll be going to the June show at LAX -- if you check the list of exhibitors for this show you can see all the main dealers and brands will be present whereas for the September show (which btw will be in Anaheim so not Newport by any stretch of the imagination) there are no exhibitor lists available. The LAX location is easy to get to and was a good hotel back in the day that Stereophile used to run a show there so I've got my tickets for June |
I just found this Stereophile post that talks about these audio shows: http://www.stereophile.com/content/year-dueling-shows#IGsq57cuY3GM5g0d.97 |
