Audio Advice, a major integration firm in Raleigh and suburban Charlotte, North Carolina, is back again this summer hosting its Audio Advice Live event.
The three-day home theater, stereo, headphone, and television event is one of the premier shows on the East Coast – and undoubtedly the largest staged by an integrator. It will take place at the Sheraton Hotel in downtown Raleigh from August 2-4, 2024.
Attendees can immerse themselves in 60+ experience rooms and eight dedicated Dolby Atmos home theater rooms this year, according to Audio Advice.
Now in its third year, the high-end home audio and media room showcase caters to consumers and offers a unique opportunity to meet face-to-face with industry experts and more than 80 of the world’s top consumer electronic brands.
“Audio Advice Live is designed to give consumers an opportunity to experience a massively diverse set of home audio and home theater products all in one location,” says Scott Newnam, CEO, Audio Advice.
