We'll also be at the Bristol Show next month, and maybe more....

Re: What hifi show 2009

awesome. Never been to one, but i take it this is a huge convention for audio enthusiasts and their ilk?  Will there be Q&A's etc?

Err ... no. ÿIf you like games and all the other things in Stuff mag then you will like it. ÿThe Bristol show is good, which I know is only sponsored by WHF, but good venue for audio.

Saying that you do have to go to Excel to appreciate how good other venues are for audio shows.

ÿSorry WHF, I know this has been covered at some length after this years show, maybe the marketing and budget people will change there mind on these things on 2010?

As Clare has pointed out, there are a lot of changes planned for the 2009 show.

You're holding it in Edinburgh! Really?! That's very decent of you; I'll be there and you can all come round for tea and cookies after. Big Smile

No, keep it a stone's throw (with a very powerful catapult) from my house Big Smile.

It's only 10 mins for me (if the missus drops me down. Over 1hr by bus!!!).

Saying that, Glasge or Edinburrrrra is cheaper to fly to from Bristol than drive to Excel and park. Weird...

No Heathrow show this year.

More on our show - and our involvement in October's Manchester Sound & Vision Show - to follow in the coming months.
