It's a bittersweet moment for hi-fi lovers everywhere. After roughly two decades of finding a home in the depths of Bavaria, the High End Munich Show will no longer be in Munich at all. Book your tickets to Austria, because it'll be High End Vienna 2026, folks!
In the meantime, plenty of manufacturers have been looking to go out with a bang as they get ready to say goodbye to the mighty Munich. Yes, there's a place for the best speakers, amplifiers and headphones being displayed, but the High End Show is also a chance to see those attractions that are a little off the beaten track. Big horns, stunning dragons and some kind of alien vortex; these are the wildest speaker designs we've enjoyed from the show floor in 2025.
