Diploma «Best Interior Solution» at the Hi-Fi & High End Show

The SAS-Audio^© project from Yekaterinburg, which debuted at the Ural Hi-Fi & High End Show (https://hifishow.ru/) in May 2024, and for the first time presented to the public its original exhibition - Scenographic Audio Systems^© was highly praised by the Organizers exhibitions with the award of a Diploma for «Best Interior Solution».

The Hi-Fi & High End Show is the main and largest Russian exhibition of high-end audio and video equipment, traditionally held in St. Petersburg, the Urals and Moscow.

Hi-Fi & High End Show brings together not only leading manufacturers, distributors and dealers of audio equipment, but also audio enthusiasts, which indicates the development of the exhibition movement in this area.

In Yekaterinburg, numerous exhibitors for the third time impressed the capital of the Urals with the variety of audio equipment from Russian and foreign manufacturers. The exhibition, which brought together more than two and a half thousand music lovers and audiophiles under its roof, brought inspiration and significant creative impetus to producers, sellers and consumers of high-quality sound.

The participation of the SAS-Audio^© project in the event allowed a huge number of visitors to expand their understanding of what a modern premium audio system can be.

The author's exhibition SAS-Audio^© made it possible to clearly see what a high-order audio system can look like directly in a home interior. It included designer functional furniture – Line Suite^©, organized into a single set and an original interior lighting system – Line Light^©, which were specially developed by the authors and, together with the audio system itself – Scenery Audio^© – constitute a ready-made interior solution that provides the user has the opportunity to «seamlessly» fit it into their interior to ensure a previously unsurpassed level of comfort in the perception of audio content.

It is the positioning of modern audio systems as a ready-made interior solution that is the main, key advantage of the SAS-Audio^© Project.

Visitors had the opportunity to experience Scenery Audio^©, a unique stereo system featuring an uncompromising low-frequency section consisting of six subwoofers, three for each of the two stereo channels, organized in vertically oriented line arrays, as well as an innovative mid-high-frequency section consisting of four ribbon (true ribbon) tweeters, and four custom midwoofers of audio engineer and bass player Phil Jones (Phil Jones, USA), arranged in a scenographic way: with horizontal panning, and forming two triangles of stereo projection in pairs - frontal and panoramic, working together , which in their totality enrich the usual reading of stereo systems as such, and constitute a unique formula for scenographic sound from SAS-Audio^©.

Scenographic Audio Systems^©, thus, as conceived by its authors, go beyond the usual reading of audio systems and blur the lines between Hi-Fi Stereo and High-End Audio, and the high assessment of the Project in the form of a Diploma for «Best Interior Solution» is objective evidence of this.

The authors of the SAS-Audio^© Project express their deep gratitude to the Organizers of the Hi-Fi & High End Show Ural – MIDEXPO company, and all its employees, without whose understanding of the real importance of involving new participants in the audio industry – audio enthusiasts – it would have been impossible to acquaint such a significant number of people with the result of the creative research of debutants.

In our opinion, it is the creation of conditions for the involvement of new projects in the exhibition life that is one of the key advantages of the leading Russian project Hi-Fi & High End Show.

We are confident that the full support of the Organizers of the Hi-Fi & High End Show for new and interesting projects in the future will strengthen the trend for sustainable development of the industry, and will allow us to present to the world many new products that exceed the expectations of users and connoisseurs of high-quality sound.
