Best in Show at Axpona 2026!

Recently we got back from Axpona 2026 in Chicago, where our Aretai Contra 200F loudspeakers received the Best in Show award from eCoustics.

Ian Wright writes: "… Latvian speaker maker, Aretai, clearly understood the assignment as their Contra 200F tower speaker unites elegant cabinet design with impeccable sound."

Our Aretai Contra 200F speakers were paired with Benchmark Media Systems amplifiers and Grimm Audio streamer in our US distributor's DreamScapes A/V room!
