Hi guys. What are the biggest and considered the best audio shows in the States?

I understand "best" can be subjective, but I'm mainly thinking in lines of quality of rooms (acoustics) and number of exhibitors.

Rocky Mountain Audio Fest (RMAF)

THE Show Newport (which 2017 will be divided into two shows)

Axpona

Capital Audio Fest, New York and CES are all lighter shows will hit or miss demos and attendance

I feel Los Angeles (formerly THE Show Newport) and Axpona in Chicago will be the two best shows going forward.

From most reports this year's Axpona was the first time it has reached "elite" status, so it may be premature to assume it will continue at that level. That said, by all accounts the venue was excellent, so if the show can continue there it should also continue to be excellent
