Not to be missed at Axpona
Thanks for the suggestions. These are the types of things we have missed.  In regards to my wife attending the show, she does enjoy it. We are local (25mins away) and we know quite a few of the area reps. Over the years, we've made a number of fr... 
Is there a ceiling limit on what you are willing to pay for an audio component?
When my wife's head hits the ceiling....that's my limit. ☹

Thanks very much for the responses.  
Axpona 2022
Have to agree, some rooms were too loud but some were too soft .  Again, personal opinion. Surprised no one has mentioned MBL. I think once again, tops of the show.  Estelon with the new Krell amp was excellent. I'm going to make some enemies here... 
most beautiful (looking) speakers
Many beautiful wood cabinet speakers out there. A couple not mentioned are Classic Audio and Acoustic Zen. If your taste leans more toward modern there's nothing more beautiful then the Estelon.

 Go to the Axpona websight and click on Exhibit and Sponserships Info. Then click on Exhibit Maps. It will give you who is on what floor and in what room.

AXPONA 2017 Protocol
I'm a three year, three day Axpona attendee. I will be there again this year. As to playing your music, as was said above, it's kinda hit or miss. Some rooms do encourage it. A few just plain don't. It seems that most depend on who's in the room. ... 
Axpona audio show. Is it worth seeing(hearing)?
My wife and I have been three day attendees to the three previous shows here in Chicago. We will be in attendance this year. The info for first timers already given is pretty much right on. I would add that this is a big show. If you have only one...
