PMC has announce full details of its participation in the forthcoming 129th Convention of the Audio Engineering Society in San Francisco.
In addition to taking its usual exhibition stand (#1307) and making its speakers available for all the audiophile presentations taking place in room 206 during the convention, PMC is also running its successful Masters Of Audio technical seminar program in a dedicated, surround-capable audio demonstration suite (Room 122).
The Masters Of Audio seminar program was a highly successful feature of May’s AES show in London, and the San Francisco sessions promise to go even better, featuring some of the finest engineers, producers and technical experts the audio industry has to offer. Between the seminars, the Masters Of Audio demonstration suite will be used for technical presentations and product demonstrations: the recently launched IB2S-A, IB2 XBD-A and AML2 nearfield monitors will all be present.
Entrance to all of the demos and seminars is free, but there is only space for 50 attendees at any one time, so anyone interested in attending must register for a place at the PMC stand at the exhibition.
