Audio Expos can be a mind blowing experience! But, don't act like a ROOKIE at your first big show. It's a JUNGLE in there! I had to learn the hard way!!! But thanks to good hi-fi friends like Cheap Audio Man and Crazy Lenny, I survived the throngs of audiophiles and the mountains of new gear. Learn from my mistakes! Go behind the scenes, and enjoy some of the sights of Axpona '24 in Chicago!

I'm so glad you had a great experience there. All of my favorite UA-camrs in one place. Awesome!
Bob, It was great to finally meet you in person. It was great my friend. Let's do it again next year.
Mutual! Can't wait for the next one!
Was awesome to finally meet you brother!! What a great time it all was.....
Oh, Man! You didn't have to do that! It was good to meet you! Everything went by in a flash! We will see you at the next one!
Thanks for sharing this amazing experience with us all. Much appreciated. Glad you had a blast! Good to see you're becoming a household name in the Audiophile Community. Stay well, Sir.
Now, Simon... you know I said that with my tongue firmly planted in my cheek! Thanks, always!
Sorry I missed you Bob. I brought my wife with me, second year in a row. She has a better understanding now of why i am the way i am. Heck she talked to more people than i did. Hope to connect with ya next year. Keep up the great work.
Thanks! Let's make it happen!
Sounds great Bob. Don’t forget they got to meet you too
I'm just a thorn in their side! 😝
I was there at the beginning. In days to come that will be forgotten, but not by me. I'm standing tall and proud. United States of Analog going from strength to strength. Axpona 2024, Bristol Hifi Show 2025?
Then I'm going to wing on over to London and jam with the Stones!
Man I'd love to go one of these years. Looks like a blast!
It's very cool! Can't wait for the next one!
Best show that I have ever seen!
I know it was mine!
It was great to see you at Axpona!
Yeah, Man! That was too much fun!
A HUGE THANK YOU for ALLLLL that YOU do, And Hanging with Lenny Must be INSANE !!!!! Cheers from a MASSIVE fan !!!!
Lenny runs fast! It's like trying to catch lightning! ⚡️
Bob, I did bring the wife. Finally met you and yours in Neil Blanchard’s room. It was lots of fun.
For sure! Good times! I'll see you next time!
I always enjoy your posts and need to get to AXPONA one of these days. Thanks for the report.
Happy to bring you the news!
Im sure we ran past each other a few times .. and your message here about people is brilliant. Absolutely agree.
I will disagree about who works harder.. but I'd love to see his process before I compare. ( and it's not me I am talking about )
Take a look at Jay's Iyagi production.
I felt the love!
Come to the Tampa show next year. Would love to hang🤪!
I'm going!!!
Sounds like FUN.. Hope to make 2025's show....
I will see you there!
Bello/Magnifico.😱😱😱😱😱😱😮👑
Thanks for the support!
"We care deeply" well said man!
Awesome very nice of you to give a shout out to all the good people in the review world and in the audio manufacturing world I'm a new subscriber to your channel now
Thanks for the sound trade show attendance advice Bob! Certainly applicable to other shows as well (ie: home, boat, woodworking, sleep, etc.) Those sleep trade shows can really pack on the pounds with all the laying around that happens. Did you eat any world famous Chicago hotdogs during your visit? Mustard only I hope!
Also sound advice for Cuddle Parties! A friend told me!
Great advice, and excellent video Bob! It was a great show, and yes the air was very dry. I also had a great time!
Your speakers sounded amazing!!!
@@UnitedStatesofAnalog Thank you! It was great to meet you in person.
Great show.
Thank you , Ed! Next time we will spend more together. I just got overwhelmed and it all went by so fast!!! See you soon!
Always a good time when you can squeeze in some whiskey. Lol
Too mucho whisky! I'm a lightweight... but we sure had fun!!!
Hey, you may have made "some" mistakes, but you suited up and showed up. Good work! Thanks for the video!
You're right! Thanks!
@@UnitedStatesofAnalog And something else you did? You encouraged me to start making my plan, right now, to get myself and my wife up there, to a neighborhood not far from where I was born, in Chicago, and even closer to where I was in second though fifth grade, in Niles, quite close to Shaumburg!
Great episode Bob!
Thanks Bob for the video and your perspective/insight into audio shows. Are you going to do a video about your favorite booths, what products you were impressed with, and what has you excited for the direction of hifi? Also any chance you'd review the ifi audio zen phono 3 that just came out? Thanks again!
Yes I have plans for another video of some of my favorite things!
I'd kill to finally check out one of these shows! If only life wasnt so prohibitively expensinve all the time..........
Yeah... I hear you! My wife has a lot of miles. Be a UA-camr and write it off! That's my strategy!
@@UnitedStatesofAnalog God bless ya!
EHHHH no Big Mistakes, Cool People hanging around!!
Got all you guys subscribed for Ever!
We're those Dang KLH Model 7s out yet!!!!!!????,
I didn't see them!
Wow you help me a lot because I’m be there in THE SHOW IN LA 👍 ✅ MI FIRST TIME IN AUDIO SHOW . Thanks 🙏
The best tip I can give is day 2 start from the top and work your way down thank me later lol.
Oh... I didn't think of using gravity!!!
Bob, I was there at the beginning. This video only had 11 likes when I showed up.
Thanks for the watch!
good stuff! Looks like it was a great show. Dallas needs to step up it's game next year.
It has possibilities!
Nice shout outs!
It really is a very supportive community! You need to find the "right" people!
Hello Bob. Once again, another fun video. Like I said, I live in Sacramento, CA. I've been wanting to go to an audio expo. I believe the closet to me is Seattle. Maybe this year. Do you have a patreon? Sorry for the spelling. If so, I would love to join. Take care, keep up the good work
No Patreon yet. But I will be stating some live stuff soon. There's always the "Thanks" button❤
You really need to make them T-Shirts available in the UK!
Wouldn't I lose my butt on shipping? I'll look into it.
@@UnitedStatesofAnalog Mmmm probably 🤣 and I’d get hit with import/duty charges but I still want one 🤣
I'm with you.. not enough women in this hobby.... The old man smell scares them away..
I like your channel,..thanks
I use Secret!
Nice that you give credit to the other UA-camrs and thank you for all your work 🎉👍
Cheap audio man have to be German heritage about he works like a horse 😂😂😂and he is probably always on time 🤔
Munich Knackers. Be there or be generic.
Exactly!
Was there a room that stood out and wowed you. Please be honest.
The Geshelli Labs/Neil Blanchard Designs (speakers) was impressive!
@@UnitedStatesofAnalog my Geshelli Archell 3 pro headphone amp works good as a preamplifier for many of my amps. Check out new music by Coffins, sinister oath.
