Just a moment separates us from the annual celebration of the highest quality sound and image. Next Friday, 24th October, at 12:00, the Audio Video Show 2025 will commence. For three days (24-26 October), three locations in Warsaw – PGE Narodowy, Radisson Blu Sobieski, and Golden Tulip – will be filled to the brim with the latest hi-fi, high-end, and premium video equipment. This is the only opportunity of the year to see the technologies that will define the future of home entertainment. We have selected 9 absolutely essential points on this year's exhibition map that showcase its incredible scale.
1. Focal Grande Utopia System for 5 million złoty (approx. 1.2 million USD)
This is not an ordinary audio system – it is a demonstration of the absolute pinnacle of engineering capabilities. At AVS we will see one of the first presentations in the world of a Dolby Atmos system entirely based on the top Utopia series. The heart will be the Focal Grande Utopia EM Evo speakers powered by Naim Statement electronics. The value? A staggering 5 million złoty (approx. 1.2 million dollars).
2. Oneiros Audio – speakers for 4 million złoty (approx. 960 thousand USD)
The European premiere of the British brand Falcon Acoustics. These speakers showcase modern technology: the enclosures are made of sandwich-type carbon composite, each measuring 160 cm in height and weighing 120 kg. This is a demonstration of artisanal precision, with a valuation reaching 4 million złoty (approx. 960 thousand dollars).
3. Gryphon Audio Kodo – power for 1.9 million zł (approx. 460 thousand USD)
The Danish audio legend, Gryphon, will present its flagship speakers, Kodo. We will see them in a system with the new Antileon Revelation monoblocks and the Commander preamplifier.

4. Philips OLED+950 – the only one of its kind in Poland!
This is a must-have for any image enthusiast. At the fair, the only specimen in Poland will debut – the new Philips OLED+950. What distinguishes it? The latest panel META 3.0 RGB Tandem and the P5 AI Dual Engine processor. We expect record brightness, perfect contrast, and of course, the unique four-sided Ambilight.
5. TCL 115C7K – the largest QD-Mini LED at the trade fair
TCL continues its offensive on large screens. At AVS we will see their gigantic, 115-inch 115C7K screen. It’s a combination of Mini LED technology with quantum dot (QD-Mini LED) that is meant to offer extraordinary brightness and black levels. The experience will be enhanced by the built-in Onkyo 4.2.2 audio system with Dolby Atmos.
6. Hisense 116UXQ – revolutionary 116 inches
Hisense is keeping up and showcasing its giant – the 116-inch model 116UXQ. Here, the key feature is the revolutionary MiniLED RGB backlighting and a sound system developed by the legendary company Devialet. This promises a picture with cinematic depth and realism.
