At the same time, there will be a dedicated Educational room where industry experts will be giving presentational seminars on a variety of A/V related topics.

What do Consumers Get?

As a consumer, it’s your chance to meet the manufacturers face to face and get the scoop on new products or ask them tech stuff about the products you own. You rarely get an opportunity like this to meet face to face in such a personalized manner without having to plow through crowds of consumers, dealers and press in the process like so often is the case at larger trade shows such as CES.

In addition, you get a chance to win a $3600+ 5.1 home theater system! With tons of FREE party swag and door prizes, NOT a single attendee will walk away from this show empty handed.

What do Dealers Get?

As a dealer you get hands on experience with the latest gear you will soon be carrying in your storefront. You also get 2 days of FREE educational seminars (all attendees are welcome to this) from leading industry experts from such organizations as THX, DVI Gear, Sencore, and many others.

What do Manufacturers get?

As a manufacturer you get to hear your customer’s feedback on your equipment and also see their reaction as they check out your new gear for the very first time. You get to peek in on your competition to see what they’ve got up their sleeve. Most importantly you get tons of press on the industries largest review A/V magazine including editorial coverage, Podcasting on AV Rant and video interviews and showcase coverage.

An Event for Everyone

You will enjoy 6 state of the art demo rooms filled with some of the very best and latest gear the industry has to offer. Two days of breakfast and dinner at our semi formal ballroom costume party and home theater giveaway extravaganza. Again NOBODY attending our event will walk away empty handed.
