T.H.E. Show admission

I went last year while attending CES and had no problem getting in both times I went. Pretty laid back actually.

Is it at Alexis Park again this year?? The same dates as CES (which went to the week-end this year)?

I think I am flying out on the 6th, anyone else heading to Vegas for CES/SHOW?

As a person who attended as a manufacturer last year, I can say that anything that hikes the attendance would be most welcome. And, from what I hear through the grapevine this year, last year is going to look crowded in comparison. Discouraging people from visiting the exhibit rooms would be yet another nail in the high-end audio coffin.

As Dweller said, THE Show is open to everyone while CES is officially trade only. But some audiophiles attend, which isn't a bad thing. However, the show that's a lot more consumer friendly and easier to get around (the Venetian is a pain) is RMAF, which I strongly recommend for the general public. THE Show is at the Alexis Park only, with small shuttle buses to and from a relatively hidden location near the Venetian.

One more thing. If you didn't preregister for CES, admission is $200.
