AUDIO SHOWS! WHAT would you like to see more of there. Better brands, hours etc?

I can only attend on Sundays.  I know the reps and everyone go out and tie one on Saturday night, but I wish they would actually open at 9:00 a.m. on Sunday, and stay open until 6:00, instead of 10:00-4:00 (with many vendors not even showing up until noon, if at all) on Sunday.

More systems with room correction that can be turned on and off as part of the demo.

More systems in the under $10k total category. 
 

Axpona is so big there is not enough time for engagement.

Exactly right!  Attended 3 days including a few seminars, just managed to finish all rooms but not able to relax and enjoy music much.  

Better airflow for comfort, smell, and reduced chance of catching something nasty. Wearing a mask in those hot, crowded rooms makes it so unappealing that I don’t go. How about small forced air fans in the halls blowing through dryer vents? They’d have to be connected to a separate power conditioner of course. :) $100 would get it done - https://www.amazon.com/AC-Infinity-CLOUDLINE-LITE-A4/dp/B09FYK6Z3R?th=1

Nagel at axpona Renaissance Hotel at Schaumburg . Illinois is better than most hotel because there is a space in the middle , so there’s a good air flow. Regarding mask , I did not wear mask this year, went ok, The trick when you talk to someone I don’t go too close, or when I talk it’s sideways so I don’t inhale the droplets. Most effective ways I do is wash my mouth every time I have a chance , and blow my nose while at the rest room and when I take shower at home.My friend who is a doctor told me viruses stays in your nose 2 to 3 days before they go to the lungs. Mouth washing is effective as well. So you don’t swallow bacteria and viruses.
