Wow! Guess I didn't miss much after all! Last years vinyl selection was pretty bad as well.The very worst Audio Show I've ever been to! I am now no longer an "audiophile" because that means boring pathetic music and polite WAY overpriced components... Every room I heard was horrible... exceptions being Luxman, Legacy and Martin Logan... rest "suoked" ... and I really don't like pouring over 5 crates of records filled with dupes while being talked at in an overcrowded room...( ie a company that I respect very much that did not put their best foot forward...Chad's room..). sorry but the audio presenters were not many and most of what I heard was bad... really wanted my money back from the Chester Group!
i can see where Supercool is coming from...i enjoyed the show but was underwhelmed...this is the city,where were all the cans & headphone amp?,I'm not a big can guy,but most of us live in apartments,not houses...also why was this show even smaller in rooms & gear than 2016? their first show(2015) in Brooklyn had some live music...i went to the show hoping to purchase a product from ifi...they were not in the house....were was Hegel? Gamut?...i really think NYC is an afterthought for this group putting the show together...a 3 day pass is a bad joke...this is just my opinion.Maybe I am being too harsh and if I were there again would find more merit and of course it's just one person's opinion...everyone is entitled..not just me...so I sincerely apologise for coming on too strong. Its just that the show really left me largely disappointed. Most sound and music seemed very manicured..to me at least.
It's a cost thing.
I'd bet doing this in NY is probably 3-5x the cost of doing most other places (more than that for some places).
they do not make good sound equipment any more those days are in the 70 s even cd sound good but don't lostMaybe I am being too harsh and if I were there again would find more merit and of course it's just one person's opinion...everyone is entitled..not just me...so I sincerely apologise for coming on too strong.

Where was it held in WP? I use to live there, graduated from WPHS!The show was better a few years ago in White Plains in Westchester NY.
Thanks.
Hi,when is the next nyc event? Do you guys ever meet for a group? Should be a NYC thread for us to plan to visit one another or meet in the city. I remember a showroom as a kid I believe run by zenith around the 50"s and 5th ave,. Used to go there watch tv and play with the stereos. Miss all the audi showroom on 45th street and around canal and chambers street.
