Worth Going to 'THE SHOW' IN NYC IN APRIL

I fully agree with Mrtennis (!) I did like the Quad room, also Lloyd Walker's room! I was mainly hoping to see a nice SET/Horn setup, but alas...

When is the next nyc show??

The Chester Group sent me an email indicating that they had entered into a long term agreement with the Waldorf for an annual NY audio show. Hope it's true. Thought the show was very good. Hope the dealers did well with it. Could be better next year if more local dealers in the area would participate.

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.

Yes-that too. Regarding the NY show, I believe all of these manufacturers have dealers in the area (NY/NJ/Conn) who can put together a display including any of the above manufacturers' wares if the manufacturers share enough of the cost. I don't know enough about the percentages traditionally paid by dealers and manufacturers to display at a show, but as for NY (versus, say Rocky Mountain), the dealers for most major manufacturers (and many smaller manufacturers) are a short truck drive away, have the goods and know what to pair it up with and how. I believe the effort should be made by both the dealers and manufacturers to bring it all to one location---the Waldorf. Of course, after parties like the one at Innovative Audio are also a great idea.
