THE Show - worth going?


I was considering going to THE show, but looking at hte exhibitor list, looks like not a lot of big names (although some), plus many I've not heard of. Have peopel gone and found it to be a valuable learning experience? Or is it better to wait til the Stereophile show?

T.H.E. Show is located right next to the Alexis Park where the audio side of CES holds its show. Admission is free and there is no hassle or waiting to get in. There is easily more than a whole day's worth of things to see at T.H.E. Show. Because of the slightly smaller attendance, you can do more listening and talking with the exhibitors. Both Alexis Park and T.H.E. Show have smaller companies that are exhibiting. I find that these companies have more interesting and nice sounding products than most of the big boys. For me, the greatest joy from going to these shows is to find and hear the more obscure products that I would not be able to hear at local shops.

If audio is your primary interest, what is NOT worth bothering to see is the MAIN CES exhibits in the three big convention center halls. What an incredible zoo and WAY too much ground to cover.

Some of the most interesting CES exhibits are off site in hotels other than Alexis Park. These are worth seeing too.
OK, I'll be the one who says it...go for that adult entertainment show they always have at the same time. Gunbei knows about it.

Ah, porn and Vegas. That's how God MEANT us to live!
In the morning, take the tram from your hotel to Alexis Park and THE Show to treat your ears. Then afterwards, cab it to the AVN Expo to give your eyes a treat. Later that night, finish it off in a jacuzzi, a club or at the OG.

Same thing goes on at all three shows. They're just trying to get you to pay for their booyah!

Hopefully, I'll get to hang with Albert Porter as well.
The last day of CES/The Show is open to the pubic, which is Sunday I think. Most of the business has been done by then and the exhibitors can and do spend the time with public. Anyone can regester go to the following link:

Vegasears,

They told me the same thing in Cabo, Cancun, Maui and Puerto Vallarta.

I can't wait!
