Worth Going to 'THE SHOW' IN NYC IN APRIL


Will this 'show' be worth it. The last audio show in NYC, AXPONA, was a real disappointment with few significant names and a dirty and seedy hotel. Since the Waldorf is the shows location that should be an improvement. However, the exhibitor list at this point is pretty small.

If someone is interested, I can share a room at the Radisson (across the street from the Waldorf). Your cost would be $100.00. Room will have two single beds.
It will be worth it, you will see lots of the big players, lots of smaller outfits, hear gear of modest to extreme price and even be able to buy some music if you wish. You might squeeze in all you want to see in one day but probably not.
The last Stereophile show in NYC was worth it, but many exhibitors said they would not be back because of extraordinary costs mainly of labor union requirements for the load in. Hope it's not true. We need a significant audio show in NYC.
Hard to say at this point. It is awfully depressing to see so little interest from major companies with only two months to go. How do they expect patrons to make plans and book reservations when the list is so underwhelming?

Does not speak well for the organizers or the industry.

I have been to NY several times in the Spring, a beautiful time to go BTW.
Waldorf is solid 4-star hotel and it should be pretty kneat there. However the smaller list indicates the number of manufacturers and dealers that can afford to run the show in Waldorf.
