2026 Florida International Audio Expo Feb 20-22


Who's going to the 2026 Florida International Audio Expo (Feb 20-22)?  Our local Suncoast Audiophile Society (also the Central Florida club) will again have a "hangout" in the Shelton Room, and also manning a table near the Cypress Room.  Looking forward to seeing/hearing the latest gear, and chatting with like minded hobbyists, both young and old.

I'm no car audio guy but I have to say some of the demo systems were impressive, folks should give them a listen. Strictly "SQ", limited to 85db, no no Drag business. They did draw a crowd out in the front parking lot last year and with that weather forecast, should again this year.

Thanks koestner. Mike btw?

The world is watching us I assure you and let’s not embarrass ourselves. 

Too late.

I’ve been to many CES, RMAF, and dozens of other shows around the country, plus a couple Tampa shows after Covid, the Tampa show isn’t as big as the other I mentioned. The new Tampa location is way better than the prior hotel.
Out of all the rooms last year, 4 stood out, 2 were the most expensive rooms, and a couple were some of the cheaper rooms. Some rooms with $100’s of thousands of $$$ worth of equipment sounded terrible. Some of these systems had right sized rooms too, not a small room with large equipment which always ends up with poor sound quality.
I hope this year has many good sounding rooms.

I want to go but can't so I will live vicariously through those that do.please post for me the best rooms and what it was after the show. Have fun meet like minded people and enjoy good food.time is precious in life like health. Enjoy the music as I just read an article where music helps develop new brain cells pathways.
