Sound & Vision, The Bristol HiFi Show, Feb 2017 – A Photo Show Report

This year the Sound & Vision show celebrated its 30th Anniversary and once again the venue was the Marriott City Centre Hotel, in the UK city of Bristol. Interestingly over that 30 years run time the venue hasn’t changed.

Held on the 24th February to Sunday 26th February 2017, this show featured a number of product launches and UK distribution deals of not seen in the UK before brands. Unlike many other UK shows this event is a dealer organised one, with Audio T being the organiser.

Thanks to Justin (User 211) who attended the show and very kindly has agreed to allow Adventures in HiFi Audio to use his photos I can bring this mostly photographic show report to my readers. The choice of equipment photographed was Justin’s and as such not every item or brand that was on display is included in this photo report.

This show was spread out over 8 floors within the Marriott City Centre Hotel.
