The bedroom corridor is usually where you find the sweets, brochures, pens, freebies and competition forms though.As an ex-exhibitor, my top 5 things to look out for will be:-
2. Idiot attendees standing in the bedroom corridor refusing to go further into the room and then complaining of poor sound;
As an ex-exhibitor, my top 5 things to look out for will be:-
1. Idiot reps talking loudly over their own demos;
2. Idiot attendees standing in the bedroom corridor refusing to go further into the room and then complaining of poor sound;
3. Home cinema systems playing loudly next door to traditional audio rooms attempting not to deafen their customers;
4. Catering more expensive than an "audio grade" ethernet cable;
5. Manufacturers who should know better attempting to demo speakers with a bass output capable of filling a stadium in a small hotel bedroom and wondering why people are underwhelmed.
And for a Brucey bonus, some arse will play Hell Freezes Over....
This show gets far to busy.
I last went 2 years ago with my son we only sat in 2 or 3 demos.
I don't know if it's just me and my boy have very sensitive nostrils..... But it seemed that most of the rooms that we walked into we were greeted by the smell of a guy who doesn't like to wash or at least use deodorant. So I didn't get to listen too much shame really as it's just down the road.
Perhaps I should travel with a can of deodorant and be a Good Samaritan.
Last year there was also a tannoy room with some lovely kit in a nearby hotel which I managed to miss
I am trying to work out the last Bristol show I went to, hmm, more than a decade anyway, was thinking of going with a mate this year ... you lot are putting me off, is it really that bad?
This (if it were this year!) is more like it, how about a few tips on the things that are worth fighting through the masses to listen to?
