The Third Time's A Charm: Part I
The Third Time's A Charm: Part II
My humble view of a remarkable and fun show in the sunny
Southland, a most appreciated re-appearance to the show circuit. Hats off to all
who made it happen.
As
the first high-end luxury audio event of 2022, it felt like a 'welcome back'
party during the Florida Audio Expo 2022 show. Everyone was overjoyed to see one
another in person. With some flights cancelled due to snow, Enjoy the

Greg Weaver was unable to attend this event. So this meant i had to work
double-time to get photos, chat with our good friends, partner magazines, and
those who kindly appreciate our efforts. As always, we wish there was more time!
Some planned events did not occur, such as Greg's music night, while others,
such as our very private party, was incredibly well-attended as everyone enjoyed
great food, my Muse / wife Heather's very generous drink-pouring of Macallans 18 year, JWalker Blue, Siesta Key Rum... and
go-karting!
As
we continue our journey through the fantastic Florida Audio Expo 2022 show, it
was obvious the sound within various rooms is very, very good. Some rooms have
the sound quality many wish they had within their own home music system! Friendly
faces, marvelous music, and sensational sound caress my ears....
Today's
update has a glorious variety of gear seen during the fabulous Florida Audio
Expo 2022. From turntables and DACs to splendid speakers and more! We even found
a small taste of headphone heaven too! Let the music play on....
While
we wait for a few more show reports to chime in from Enjoy the Music.com's
writing staff, here's Part 4 filled with many pics from the Florida Audio Expo
2022. Within this update are some spectacular speakers, DACs, and a really sexy
turntable too! For those who love artistic luxury audio products, we have something
for you!
During
the Florida Audio Expo 2022 there were live streams those at home could enjoy.
Below is a sampling of the many videos taken during the show. Enjoy!

More About The Florida Audio Expo
2022 "We are thrilled to have our third annual show at the Embassy Suites Westshore," said Bart Andeer, co-founder and operations manager of the Florida Audio Expo. "The convenience of being just minutes from the airport and downtown is a bonus for exhibitors and attendees alike. The 2022 show will be an exciting opportunity to once again share our passion for music and sound, and for attendees to experience new audio products from all over the world." The Florida Audio Expo is within convenient driving distance to such local attractions as Busch Gardens and the Florida Aquarium, and just an hour's drive from Walt Disney World. The Embassy Suites, originally built as condominiums, offers a luxury feel and the living suites are acoustically isolated — one of the key reasons this venue was selected. The audio rooms, Marketplace, and headphone/personal audio demo suites will all feature display areas that include a separate bedroom and kitchen, offering exhibitors the added benefit of a multi-purpose room as an interesting and affordable space.
FLAX Doc. Filming By Barbaric Nightmare Productions "This documentary will show not only how our love of music has grown through the pandemic, but also how audio technology has enabled the next generation to be the 'The New Audiophiles'," said producer Bill Nimz. "This film aspires to tell the story of how artists and industries are evolving, and how new waves of audiophiles, of all ages, are discovering their love for great music." The Florida Audio Expo appreciates all the support it has gotten from the industry, with special thanks to platinum sponsors Qobuz.com and Enjoy the Music.com.
