AXPONA or T.H.E. Newport?

Check out who will be demonstrating there. Looks to be quite an impressive field. Demo's Seminars, Music Sales, Auction.

The rooms did sound extremely good last year. I was fortunate enough to meet and introduce myself to the men who created most of my components, very cool!

I brought back a lot of new music too, (LP's, CD's and SACD's).

Let's have a beer together!

Axpona was very good least year, and I'm expecting it to be even better this year. The rooms are a bit larger than your typical hotel room, so they sound a bit better as well. That gives attendees a better chance to hear what the systems can really do.

This year JD Events purchased Axpona and has been marketing it aggressively. They also have more exhibitors than last year. The only downside to last year from a visitors perspective was that the show was packed, our room was literally standing room only all weekend. If it's like that this year, talk to the exhibitors in the rooms you want to investigate further, and they'll likely do quiet after-hours demos for you.

I went to AXPONA with my audio dealer buddy last year. This year, I'm taking my wife. It was enjoyable overall. I really liked Peter Lederman's seminar.

So important you asked twice.

That's because my initial ask didn't show up -- until later, Mr. Snarkey.

Thanks for the input everyone.
