Is there still a major hi-end audio presence at CES? I have not attended for many years but the last time I attended the high-end exhibits at the Venetian were greatly reduced. Many suites previously used for audio were used for technology meeting rooms.

I did a Google search for audio at CES 2026 and only found HT companies offerings (Samsung, etc.).
 
Nope. Audio wasn’t welcome about 5 years ago or so. Drones and other crap became their focus.
I wonder why T.H.E Show still tries to operate there. Operating simultaneousliy with CES was a major attraction. I thought Richard Biers stopped pairing with CES before he passed away. He saw the fading attraction for audio at CES. Now the new owners are trying to resurrect T.H.E. Show Vegas.
 
The only audio is from the Samsung and LGs of the world.

There are some by invitation only in suites at non-CES hotels. For example, Sonus Faber announced their top speaker in a suite at the Wynn a couple years ago. It was fun to see the stacks of McIntosh amps and the speakers were beautiful.

I’ll be there but not for audio - I go because of all the other toys!!!
