No. We are selling all we can get so made no sense to try to capture more demand. Thinking about doing it next year. But then don't know how I can cover the show for you all....

@Lsc remarked that 'box speakers' have fallen out of favor like sedan cars......

Consider asking your brother to field questions for Tested Audio while stout members of ASR transport you from showcase to showcase in a 'sedan chair'.

I was the only one in my Sunday afternoon demo so they played music instead of dumb movie clips.
