CEDIA 2011

Parting Shots of CEDIA 2011

CEDIA Expo 2011 is history, but the memory lingers on. Many manufacturers go to great trouble and expense to dazzle showgoers with their booths, and I always photograph a few of the best ones as I wander the floor. My favorite this year was the Klipsch booth with its floating translucent columns encasing LEDs that provided an ever-changing light show. But it wasn't the only booth that caught my eye…

KEF's booth featured this elegant crystal chandelier sparkling high above the show floor.

SpeakerCraft always constructs a great booth with lots of organic elements, and this year was no exception.

Runco's WindowWall tiled display was assembled in a sculptural array showing stills from classic black-and-white movies, forming a great juxtaposition with all the modernity surrounding it.

This open-top view of a Mark Levinson No. 53 monoblock power amp ($25,000 each!) was not an architectural element of Harman's booth, but the internal red-LED illumination looked way cool.

Sony's booth was topped with these large projection screens showing abstract colors in slowly evolving patterns.
