With experience in organizing 2 Porsche Club events, I have to point out the importance of "Sponsor Display" tables, and location. ZMF Headphone, gets top choice of location as the primary sponsor. Other sponsors, table location, should be considered according to monetary contribution to the event. The Portland Head-Fi Meet is in early development stages.
Whats up spyder1,
I was going to respond to your pm but would rather respond here. So here is how the vendors work because as of now there will be some logicstics to work out with dedicated tables to sponsors. Namely because if they send gear and cannot show up, that means they won't have a source, computer, vinyl player, or lap top, to fully display their units. This means that instead of a dedicated sponsor table, they have to be paired with trustworthy headfiers like
@Soundsgoodtome and others who will be setting up their gear and can represent them well. In a venue like this, my hope is that the ample space provides a good display and easy visibility of the vendor products that will be sent in.
If you have any other way to navigate this then please let us know. I would much rather each vendor have their own table, separate from all other gear but unless they send us laptops and cables etc, that most likely will not happen. What is more likely is a set up that more closely resembles Tyll at innerfidelity's Big sound event
unless they actually show up to claim a table (plent of tables and room). And though we do not have Woo monoblocks we will definitely have some BIG SOUND!!!
