Our Luxury Audio team is kicking off the 2025 trade show season with our upcoming exhibition at Integrated Systems Europe – or as it’s more simply known – ISE. Held in Barcelona, Spain at the Fira Barcelona, this show is the largest residential and commercial integration show in Europe. While our colleagues in HARMAN Professional will also be there with an impressive selection of their products, our Luxury Audio team will be on our stand 2H100 in the Residential & Smart Building where we will be focused on our JBL and JBL Synthesis brands. If you’ll be attending, here is a preview of what you’ll see and hear when you meet with our team onsite.

Our custom crafted JBL Synthesis demonstration cinema room is always a draw at the show and this year we will be featuring two complete systems to highlight the scalability of our solutions. The larger system includes the flagship SCL-1 and SSW-1 loudspeakers, and the smaller system includes a solution anchored by the SCL-6 loudspeakers and powered by the SDR-38 receiver. We’ll also be showcasing at the stand the new JBL Synthesis SMA power amplifiers – the eight-channel SMA-8300 and four-channel SMA-4750 – and introducing the new SDP-80 reference surround processor featuring 8K HDMI video compatibility. The 32-channel SDP-80 upgrades the SDP-75 platform and serves as the core of a JBL Synthesis Certified Elite system. Be sure to stop by and see and hear why JBL Synthesis systems are the standard by which home cinema excellence is measured.

At the front of the stand is a new demonstration area that features the JBL MA9100HP AVR powering a 5.2.4-channel Dolby Atmos system comprised of JBL Stage 2 in-wall and in-ceiling loudspeakers. The JBL Modern Audio MA Series AVRs and Stage 2 Series loudspeakers were designed to bring high-performance sound to music and movie lovers without the complexity of traditional component-based systems. And their industrial design extends that simplicity with a clean and uncluttered contemporary appearance available in both white and black finishes. These loudspeakers and electronics will also be on static display elsewhere in the booth along with a JBL Conceal invisible in-wall loudspeaker system to demonstrate the high-performance capability of these incredible products.

ISE 2025 is taking place February 4-7 in Barcelona, Spain. If you or your customers will be in attendance, be sure to stop by the Luxury Audio stand 2H100 to say hello and get the latest information on our products and solutions for the residential custom integration market.
