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.

disappointing does not equal not worth it.

the decision to go may depend upon who is exhibiting.

show was somewhat disappointing, except for the robyatt room with the quad 57's.

i can honestly say i would not want to own any system i heard in the rooms i visited with the exception of the room with the quad 57's.

however, kudos to berning's mono amps and preamp and the clue, although its placement constraints could pose a challenge to attain optimal sound and achieve the bass response i heard.

i think the show would be more interesting if there was greater participation from manufacturers and less dealer representation.

there are were many good products that were not present at the show, such as audio research, magnepan and martin logan, specifically the clx, as well as analysis audio, roger sanders electrostatic hybrid, aesthetix, and others.
