Thank you for your suggestions and advice. I've been doing a bit of research on the shows and many of their websites don't have their exhibitor lists posted yet. I have a list of brands that I would like to audition (based on TAS, Stereophile, etc reviews), but I was hoping to also discover new brands that I may not have considered in the past...perhaps some less known companies that produce a quality product. Do most of these companies sell their show samples during the show?
What Audio Show to Attend?
I'm planning on buy either a new or new used pair of the speakers in the upcoming year and want to attend an audio show to do some extensive auditioning. I was originally thinking of going to the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in October. However, picking up the latest of edition of the Absolute Sound, I saw ads for other Audio shows in New York (Audio and AV show at the Waldorf Astoria) as well as Axponia in Jacksonville, Florida. I think there's another audio show in California as well. To those that have attended these shows, can you offer up any recommendations? I'm travelling from Western Canada so I want to make this worthwhile. Thanks in advance!
