(continued on page 52) (continued on page 52)

All Expo attendees should mark their calendars for the free keynote, “Entertainment Evolution 2022: Content Overload,” on Wednesday, Sept. 28 from 5:30 p.m.-6:30 p.m. Guts+Data founder and CEO Greg Durkin will explore today’s complex content ecosys tem and the challenges and opportunities for integra tors in the streaming and home entertainment sectors.

This year’s CEDIA Expo will fea ture a reinvigorated educational programming with over 150 ses sions, including the CEDIA Expo Conference, manufacturer product trainings and show floor stage sessions. Highlighted by many brand-new sessions, including all-new wellness track and lighting tracks, the program includes the return of “Ask the Experts,” a popular open forum session, and a Span ish-language track. This year’s CEDIA Expo includes the debut of the CEDIA Advocacy Town Hall, a free session about the legislative and regulatory issues fac ing the home technology industry.

CEDIA returns to Dallas with an all-new confer ence program for CEDIA Expo 2022. Thoughtfully designed to reflect the remarkable growth of the cus tom integration channel over the past several years, the conference will stimulate growth and collabora tion among industry newcomers and veterans alike.

The CEDIA Expo Conference brings world-class advocacy, connection and education to the home technology community through formal training and professional advancement, advocacy activations and insightful speakers on emerging trends. The CEDIA Expo Conference program includes a diverse mix of formats, including thought-provoking seminars, engaging panels and interactive half-day workshops. A few highlights include:

 In this year’s free Keynote presentation, Greg Durkin, founder and CEO of Guts+Data, will kick off the conference with a deep dive into entertainment technology and content. (See related story on this page)

Attendees can go forth and apply the knowledge as they discover new technologies on the exhibit floor. This year’s CEDIA Expo Conference program, which CEDIA curates, will feature events for everyone.”

The proliferation of content, streaming platforms, and hardware has stranded con sumers in a fragmented landscape. Durkin’s keynote will detail how today’s complex con tent ecosystem transpired, identify the current challenges and opportunities for streaming and home entertainment, and outline a datainformed blueprint for integrators to tackle the content conundrum. Derived from his 24-year tenure in entertainment marketing—includ ing nearly a decade of marketing leadership at Warner Bros. and years of data consulting with HBO, Netflix and other leaders in the streaming services space—as well as the data from Guts+Data Hollywood Studios EnACT study, the keynote will provide CEDIA Expo attendees with a stimulating path to expand their service offerings further into content and entertainment support for today’s connected home

Register by Sept. 26 for pre-show savings.

“Simplicitycustomers.is the new luxury, but the frag mentation of streaming platforms and marketing has become a frustrating barrier for customers. It takes longer to find shows, manage subscrip tions and discover content they’ll enjoy,” says Durkin. “CEDIA members are uniquely posi tioned to support consumers in navigating these challenges. It naturally ties into their motivation to curate reliable, frictionless connected home experiences. I look forward to sharing findings

On Thursday from 7:30 a.m.-9 a.m, CEDIA will host the first-ever Industry Advocacy Town Hall. The free event kicks off with breakfast, followed by a dis section of the legislative and regulatory issues facing the home technology industry.

DMF Lighting’s iX Series Small Aperture solution removes the traditional constraints of two-inch fixtures, allowing integrators to distinguish themselves from contractors by offering a higher quality, premium aesthetic. The quiet revolution is here.

The demo system features speakers by Sonus faber, amplification by McIntosh, video and sound by Kaleidescape, and video processing by madVR. Officina Acus tica designed the room, and a Barco projector and Seymour screen will be used.

BOOTH 21089 LED video walls are becoming increasingly popular in-home theater and media room environments, and for good reason. They offer distinct advantages over projectors, such as saving needed space normally occupied by a projector while protecting the room’s design aesthetic.

More importantly, they are extremely bright (up to 1000nits), providing an expanded High Dynamic Range of deep blacks and bright whites within the same image frame.

The C Seed 201 column takes 15 seconds to achieve its full height of 4.65 m (15 feet) with effortless ease. Seven massive MicroLED panels unfold equally soundlessly within the next 25 seconds.

The SR-28212ai features a 1.7-inch advanced poly mer compression tweeter, two ultra-high output eightinch midrange drivers, and two 12-inch, 2000W woofers inside a distinctive, aimable enclosure. It serves as three loudspeakers in one: a very high-output, very full-range loudspeaker for LCR or surround applications, an LFE (main) sub woofer and a subwoofer for surround and Atmos speaker bass management—all at the same time, and all within a single six-inch-deep enclosure.
