CEDIA 2012

I go into every major audio/video trade show thinking I won’t hear much in the way of new speakers, yet every time I encounter new designs that leave me surprised at least and sometimes downright shocked. This year at the CEDIA Expo, I heard what is certainly one of the best audio demos I’ve ever heard — and maybe even the best. Yet I also encountered a few highly creative designs using acoustical concepts I’ve never before encountered.

Here’s a photo essay picturing the most interesting new speakers I found at the Expo. Once you’ve seen these, check out our additional reports on new models shown by AudioXperts, KEF, and Ultralink.
