What audio expos are worth going to?


On the off-chance that expos, like CES actually happen in person this year and next, I was wondering if anyone has attended particularly great, annual audio expos. I've never been to any and with the lack of audio stores where I live, I feel like I've been living in a vacuum. So, I'm anxious to hear a lot of the equipment discussed in this forum. I'm in CA but given the audience, the expos could be anywhere. And conversely, did you ever attend an expo that you would not recommend?

Thanks.

The best one so far this year was Chuxpona 21 in Redmond. Audiophiles from across the country had a great time. https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/9675 The next one coming up is Chuctoberfest in nearby Woodinville the weekend of Chuct, er I mean October 30-31. This 2 day event will follow the Chuxpona model where we try out a number of different things in one main system. Saturday is at Brandon's in Woodinville. It is really more his event I am just the shill, er I mean promoter. At least one from CA is driving up and so let me know if you are interested maybe you can ride with him? We have one room here.

Why endure the crowds, impersonal hotels and hastily set up hotel room systems when you can kick back relax and drink, listen and be merry?
