AXPONA or T.H.E. Newport?


I've been to the past two Newport shows but I'm wondering how AXPONA compares. What do you think?

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

Thanks for the input everyone.
Very glad someone else will be there with their wife. I was their last year with my wife and on Saturday you could count the amount of women there on your fingers. Sunday there seemed to be a better female showing but still rather sparse. We will be attending again this year and she's already hoping that there are a few more women. I understand that this tends to be more of a male dominated hobby but my wife enjoys the music and she does have her opinions about the equipment we buy. As for the show, it was the only one I had ever attended so I can't make any comps. All indications were that it was a big success. That's why they decided to bring it back even bigger. I'm hoping they make it a yearly stop. Seeing as how I live only about a half hour away makes it even better.
Drubin,I went to Axpona last year and it was a very good show. It is worth the trip. Never been to THE but have been to RMAF. Axpona is a bit smaller, but there is still a ton of high end stuff to see and hear. It is supposed to be bigger this year than last. You will need a couple of days at least to see everything. Pay no mind to the goofball above. He posts quite often here, but almost never provides anything of value.
