CEDIA Expo 2008

CEDIA Expo 2008

By Sound & Vision Staff
September 2008

There's this gig that's been on our minds
All the time, CE-CE-CEDIA. Expo-oh-oh . . .

Whoa — sorry about that, Phil Collins. But we here at S&V are still buzzing about the 2008 Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association (CEDIA) Expo! We hit the convention floor in full force, sticking our cold, wet noses into every little exhibit booth in Denver, Colorado. We saw firsthand the latest and greatest in home electronics gear (and met some super-nice Coloradans!).

The benefit to you, dear reader? We posted photos, features, and blog entries — all accessible below. Check out our Sept. 3 through Sept. 7 coverage. And, c'mon — just say the word: CE-CE-CEDIA.
