There are around 20 rooms - and a lot of them were more limited (monitors with digital for example). There were few analog setups and even fewer tape decks (MBL only I believe). Exhibitors definitely didn't go all out for the most part.
I think most of the forum members who attended seemed to prefer the same rooms - the big YGs in the Alma room, the Evo Acoustics/DartZeel room, and the smaller Gryphon room. I think Odyssey was the best value room, albeit a little weird/tricked out room treatment.
I hope this paves the way for a grand return in 2019 with the LAOCAS which was clearly absent and much needed.
THE Show needs to dump the makeup booths, lighting, and all the non-audio stuff. It was so lame walking around the marketplace being asked about moisturizer.
