Audio Video Show 2025 Set to Be the Biggest in History

StereoNET’s Eugene Ng heads to Warsaw for Europe’s largest celebration of sound and vision

The Audio Video Show returns to Warsaw this weekend, and organisers say the 2025 edition will be the biggest in the event’s 27-year history. Running from 24–26 October, the exhibition again spans three major venues — the PGE Narodowy Stadium, Radisson Blu Sobieski Hotel, and Golden Tulip Hotel — cementing its position as Europe’s second-largest and the world’s second-largest hi-fi and home-cinema showcase.

StereoNET’s own Eugene Ng will be on the ground in Warsaw, capturing the latest standout systems, world premieres, and industry trends shaping the year’s final major audio show. Across three days and more than 185 listening rooms, he’ll be exploring everything from the ultra-high-end to emerging, accessible innovations — the kind of contrasts that make the Audio Video Show one of the most engaging on the global calendar.

Founder and organiser Adam Mokrzycki says this year’s scale reflects nearly three decades of steady, deliberate growth.

We never set out to compete with Munich, but we’ve built our brand step by step, expanding exhibition spaces and offerings for both exhibitors and visitors. This year’s show will be the biggest in our history: 185 listening rooms — 95 large and 90 smaller ones — over 200 exhibitors, and 600 brands.

Some of the year’s most ambitious demonstrations will be in Warsaw. Visitors can expect a Dolby Atmos setup centred on Focal’s flagship Grande Utopia EM Evo loudspeakers — one of the first installations of its kind — and a full-scale presentation of Gryphon Audio Designs’ Kodo system, paired with the Danish brand’s latest amplification. Together, they underline how this event continues to blur the lines between consumer and reference-grade audio.

Vinyl remains well represented, too. The TechDAS Air Force IV and VPI Avenger Statement turntables are expected to be among the show’s most-visited analogue attractions. The latter, priced around 659,000 zł (approx. £130,000 | €150,000), combines a three-phase BLDC direct-drive motor with a precision reference arm — an unapologetically mechanical take on musical refinement that reminds listeners why the format endures in a digital world.

Visual technologies will also be out in force, with the Philips OLED+950 (featuring the META 3.0 RGB Tandem panel and P5 AI Dual Engine) showing what’s possible in OLED contrast and colour precision, while TCL’s 115-inch QD-Mini LED display takes large-format home cinema to near-theatrical proportions. Both underline the show’s increasingly broad definition of high-performance entertainment.

Beyond the hardware, the 2025 edition places strong emphasis on spatial audio, AI-assisted calibration, and the premium home-cinema sector — trends that are now reshaping how systems are designed and experienced. There will also be seminars, artist-hosted sessions, and workshops, which will bring the human side of the industry into focus.

Music lovers can browse Poland’s largest vinyl marketplace, discover smaller boutique brands, and plan their listening route across the three venues using the official exhibition map. With over 200 exhibitors representing around 600 brands, it’s a scale few shows can match — and one that continues to evolve each year.

Over three packed days, the Audio Video Show will once again highlight the passion, creativity, and sheer variety that define this industry — and we'll be there to bring readers the key moments.

applause awards

Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.

Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.

The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.

We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
