You can see the highlights of the recent Sound & Vision Bristol Show (almost) like you were there in video on Cinenow.TV.
Focal JMLab, renowned for their larger floor standing speakers using their unique inverted dome technology, will have on demonstration for the first time in Europe at the Sound & Vision Bristol Show later this month the Dome, their brand new mini-speaker line-up. It is the most compact speaker that Focal has ever produced and uses a machined aluminium cabinet.
Here’s the second part of our report on the Hi-fi and Home Theater Show in Paris.
The Bristol Sound & Vision Show may not be the place to find the new launches, but it’s one of the key places where the public get to see new products for the first time. Instead of the glitzy trade shows like CES, the Bristol Sound & Vision is the show where people can not only see what’s new, but buy it too. This is why it’s so successful and why it’s celebrating its 20th anniversary this year.
CES Day Three – Sweeping round the hotels
Lots more of the products that caught our eye at the CEDIA 2006.
Just try to imagine almost 60,000 square meters, like 20 football fields, packed full of innovations from more than 500 exhibitors, close to 30,000 in attendance, over 300 training sessions, with 8000 “students”…
The official launch of Y, the new high-end package from Focal-JMLab and YBA with be coming soon in the UK and then internationally. This is the beginning of a new product line concept from Focal-JMLab as Gérard Chrétien, Managing Director of the largest French loudspeaker manufacturer, explains in a recent interview with us where he shows for the first time the new, specially designed package with an integrated amplifier YA201 and CD player YC201, developed with YBA, combined with their Profile line speakers, including the beautifully new finishing on the Diamond Black series (see complete video clip presentation HERE]).
For the first time anywhere, the Profile Diamond Black Special Edition finishing was seen recently in Paris where we had the opportunity to talk with Gérard Chrétien, Managing Director of Focal-JMLab, who gave us a close-up look at this real Black Beauty.
Focal JMLab, the French speaker specialist, is completing its Profile series with two new devices, dubbed SR908 and IW-908. SR stands for Surround, IW for In-Wall.
From what we gathered, the launch of the new CC 1000Be central loudspeaker and SW 1000 Be Sub are the start of a new multi-channel strategy at FocalJMLab. For them, the surge of the 5.1, 6.1 technology needs much more than a complement to your classic two-channel Hi-Fi system, hence the launch of these products.
The Sheraton Hotel hosted the second "Brussels Hi-Fi & Home Cinema Show". More than 170 brands were visible in a very pleasent, friendly atmosphere, which was no surprise for those who know Brussels.
