I'm attending also. My advice is to plan ahead by determining what rooms you want to visit. Google Southwest Audio Fest and you can see what Exhibitors will attend and their room numbers.
Southwest Audiofest
Hello to all and may your Spring be "berry" merry !
Well sorry for the "corny" greeting, oops did it again. I am reaching out for help from you avid posters as well as the mostly readers rarely posters like me.
My wife and I will be in Dalles Saturday to attend the first ever Southwest Audiofest and our first ever Audiofest. I have yet to post my modest system but most of what I have and a lot of my audio knowledge comes from sources like this forum with its wealth of contributers.
We are attending to hear and see the stuff that I have seen and some have heard in the glossy trade magazines, a few dealerships, My brother's house!!! and your posted systems WoW on that !! I want to see the real estate priced components and the closer to earth stuff too. Please is there a protocol or etiquette do or don't dos? What do you recommend to make us agog, stunned, smile ? What should we not miss? What lesser known "brands" are THE ones to visit I am asking what would you do if not auditioning or shopping?? Thank you verry much for helping

What @ricred1 said go through the exhibitor list and note things you want to hear. There will be a lot to take in so organization can help you hit as many rooms as possible. |
Thank you @ricred and @jond. I do have an agenda though still "tweaking" just seems too amateur you know ? All of the fests and shows and exhibits the many forum members have attended up against this being my first is a formidable ratio yet one I would like to use as an advantage. Maybe you have a story ? "This one room I went to had an amazing ???? or the show in Chicago I get on the elevator and turn around to see !!!!! AND It's just the two of us going down 14 floors please give me something so stop making stuff up. @ricred1 and @jond do you have a favorite or a room you plan to spend more or the most time in for example. For instance I really don't understand how these demonstrations can be complimentary using hotel rooms. Are the attendees packed in ? |
