    The Stereo Music Show 18 -20 June Carnival City Conference Centre Rio Rooms

    Not at this stage and for two simple reasons. We've never dealt with Bently and decided that for this show we stick with the people we have traditionally dealt with. The second reason is that covid restrictions have meant that we couldn't use all the space potentially available to us When...

    Is your audio system ready for losless Music?
