Oh excellent, thank you for sharing this list. Saves me and I'm sure several others the time spent doing the same. Hope everyone attending has a wonderful time at the show this weekend!

I've only missed one show since they started hosting it in IL, so it's exciting to be going back once again this year.

I fly into Schaumburg on Thursday and leave Sunday. I went to Axpona last year also and Canjam 2022 in NYC. I'm not going this year for headphone gear. Looking for a new streamer, speakers and amplifier. Looking forward to the show.

Anyone up for impressions on the PSB M4U TWM true wireless earbud? Using magneto-static driver along with a planar.

I'm in Aus and can't make it.

I'll try to audition all of them as the resident PSB guy, with M4U 1, 4, and 8's currently. Pushing wired with Violectric v200 from a Bryston bda3 fed from Sony blu-ray over HDMI.

Been PSB since mid 90s with a pair of 800i for FL, FR in a basement theater, now 3x T2s for front LCR, wclr2 walls, PSB ceilings.

I'll be driving Miss Daisy, err, steveM324 to the show from DTW.

Bumping this because it’s happening today!! The best show in the Midwest! Speakers AND headphones.
I’ll be there soon! I want to compare the Caldera, Atrium and a few others.
