Administrator StereoNET Posted March 22, 2016 Administrator Posted March 22, 2016 It's been a massive 6 months of preparation for the first StereoNET HiFi Show, and has certainly not been without its challenges, but it's all starting to come together now. Ticket sales have been very strong, and all but a few of the brands and exhibitors I would like have committed to our show. It's a massive undertaking to do a show (as an exhibitor) and with two in Melbourne in the one year, I'm very grateful to those that have invested in and have taken a leap of faith in our show. There's still loads to do, but now with the majority of the "selling" out of the way, we can focus on the marketing and the finer details of the organising. I'm actually getting excited about it now! My biggest fan! 6
Darren69 Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Marc, I do hope it all comes together for you and understand just how hard it is and how persistent one needs to be just to get the word out, sometimes one can advertise something for years and people still seem oblivious, haha. I have a feeling those first seven beers after the show will be good. 1
amkr Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Congratulations mate. Hope it all pulls together, it sounds like it will be a fantastic event. If we were in a better financial / life situation at the moment (just bought a house, spending all my free time running cables or digging gardens, etc.) I'd be down there. Hopefully next year I'll make the trip to hifi mecca.
Kaynin Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Just looked at the exhibitors and brands list again, I can't wait, there's going to be so much quality there.
Tony M Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Maybe I've missed it, but do we have opening/closing times for the show yet? It just helps with booking flights in on Friday and out on Sunday to maximize time at the show.
Guest Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Yes Tony, we do but we've been going back and forth with exhibitors to finalise those.I'll confirm and update the site this evening with the times. It's likely to be: Friday: 2PM - 7PM (VIPs from 1PM) Saturday: 11AM - 5PM (VIPs from 10AM) Sunday: 10AM - 3PM
Tony M Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Cool, thanks Marc. No point catching a really early flight Friday then. Suits me fine - I don't do mornings. 1
Guest Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 I know the distributors - they won't be ready Thursday night, so Friday morning buys them more time for finishing touches
Guest Muon Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) I hope this means you are coming down @@Muon ??? Nah. Just something Al can say better than I can Edit: can still be happy that this venture comes off well even if I don't see it first hand.

Guest Sime Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) I still ain't seen what shed @@Martykt has got for me yet. But I live in a caravan, so I'll be harder to shock. Edited March 23, 2016 by Sime
Martykt Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 I still ain't seen what shed @@Martykt has got for me yet. But I live in a caravan, so I'll be harder to shock. Will be a surprise...... !!! I was thinking of the very unoriginal mattress on a bed in a spare room but might have to think a bit more creative now..... Not sure I can compete with evil springs though........
Guest Sime Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Whatever you come up with, just warn that pooch of yours I'll be eyeing off her kennel @@Martykt
