you were too young to remember ... :)
Unfortunately I wasn't too young.. :) I'll be 50 next year.
In fact in 1994 I was already skulking around the showrooms at Sound Components in Coral Gables deciding which speakers would make up my HT setup... I picked the DefTechs and B&K preamp... it was the reasonable alternative to the Casablanca... All are still going strong!
But I don't remember seeing that show advertised. And I don't think any big shows have come here since. The west coast gets all the good audio stuff. Even NYC, where I was born and raised is relatively weak compared to San Francisco... although there are many more opportunities to experience the high end in the North East as opposed to the South East and South Florida in particular.
We need more shows in heavy rotation, different cities.
I'm surprised how with the amount of crazy money there is here we don't have ANY audio shows at all. Nothing. There are houses along my street that sell in the 30 million dollar range. Not a typo. There have to be plenty of "more money than brains" guys here to warrant a good show full of audio porn.
Quick note: the crazy houses are on the bay. Were I in that wealth bracket my assistant, not me would be writing this.
Maybe the assistants are buying up the audio stuff. They dont have to study equipments at Audio shows. Its not their money. No wonder the shows fail in Miami.
Cheers
Bill
