Experience all the latest audio and AV technologies at the Hi-Fi Show & AV Expo this September in London! (19/8/2004)

The UK's pre-eminent international home entertainment exhibition will play host to UK and overseas trade visitors as well as consumers of all ages

Exhibition space continues to fill and-to date-the Hi-Fi Show & AV Expo 2004 has confirmed exhibitors representing over 200 brands and product lines, ranging from the world's most desirable high-end audio systems to breathtaking home cinema set-ups, from LP to CD to DVD-the list covers everything from the latest plasma screens to the baddest, fattest subwoofers!

The show will open to the public on September 25-26, 2004, with an array of new technologies and cutting-edge displays, enhanced by demonstrations from global manufacturers like Anthony Gallo, Chord Electronics, Marantz, Meridian, Musical Fidelity, Pioneer, Tannoy, and Visonik Elektroakustik, plus many, many more. Sony will be there as well show-casing their latest products-visitors may even be treated to the UK's first public demonstrations of BluRay, offering true high-definition picture quality!

Show attendees can learn how to make the most of their audio and home theatre systems by attending the "Meet The Experts" session with highly-respected editors Steve Harris, Editor-in-Chief of Hi-Fi News magazine-sponsors of the Show-along with renowned journalist Ken Kessler, guest John Atkinson, Editor-in-Chief of the U.S. publication Stereophile magazine and other top reviewers and critics.

Free music will be performed throughout the show by a variety of artists playing blues, jazz and even a few boogie-woogie tunes from the John O'Reilly Band, Guy Tortora Duo, Matt Empson, Tim Royce Band and the Nigel Bagge Duo.

Kicking off the Trade & Press Day (Friday September 24), will be the Show's invitation-only breakfast event, with a keynote speech from one of the best-known and respected figures in the industry today, Ken Ishiwata. In his global role as Brand Ambassador at Marantz, known and admired for his "Special Editions", Ishiwata is uniquely well-placed to give us an illuminating overview of the consumer electronics business and the changing marketplace of today and tomorrow.
