The Audio Zone at ISE 2026 is where sound takes centre stage, spanning Halls 7 and 8.1, with an Outdoor Demo Area between Halls 3 and 4. With additional Audio Demo Rooms in Hall 8 and Listening Suites in CC2 offering exclusive real-world listening experiences, ISE 2026 gives you the chance not only to see the latest systems but to hear the difference.

Audio Zone at ISE 2025For premium loudspeaker systems, L-Acoustics (7B190, Audio Demo Room F4) offers object-based platforms that set the benchmark for spatial sound for live events, theatre, and experiential spaces. d&b audiotechnik (7E190 and Audio Demo Room D2) is on show with a highly regarded range of loudspeaker and amplification systems, designed for arenas, festivals, and permanent installations. Line arrays, offering scalable control and consistent coverage, are on show from Martin Audio (7A300, Audio Demo Rooms F6), as well as innovative Italian brands K-array, KGEAR, and KSCAPE (7G350, 2E195) with ultra-slim line arrays, integrated lighting-and-audio products, and weather-resistant designs that blend seamlessly into architecture. Alcons Audio (7G500) is another high-end performance offering with its pro-ribbon technology delivering dynamic range in cinema, theatre and touring applications.  1 SOUND (7N500) brings innovative loudspeaker designs, such as progressive horns, as well as a focus on customisation and aesthetic integration.
