What are the key highlights for Harman this year in terms of new products?
This year, we have a very exciting range of new products across our audio and lighting portfolios. On the audio side, we have completely refreshed our ceiling speakers and introduced full-range models designed to deliver superior sound performance. Additionally, our new ComTech series amplifiers are Dante-enabled with power-sharing capabilities, which enhance flexibility and efficiency for professional installations. On the lighting front, we’ve launched the ELP Manet, a product that integrates seamlessly into modern AV setups. Many of our solutions are AI-ready, laying the foundation for next-generation integration and open-standard platforms.
How would you describe the current trends in the professional AV market?
Integration and immersive experiences are the two major trends we are observing. Users are increasingly seeking experiences that are both interactive and engaging, and immersive solutions are becoming a necessity rather than a luxury. Our products are designed to meet this demand, providing seamless AV experiences that elevate both audio and visual environments. The market is evolving rapidly, and Harman is committed to staying ahead by delivering solutions that are future-ready.

Our future roadmap focuses on integration, immersive experiences, and AV-over-IP solutions. We are building a complete ecosystem where all our products communicate seamlessly, not only within Harman but also with other open-standard platforms. This ensures that end users can enjoy a fully integrated AV environment tailored to their needs. We believe in enabling a seamless, high-quality experience that combines the best of audio, video, and lighting technologies.
How is Harman preparing to meet the demands of next-generation AV solutions?
Many of our solutions are designed to be AI-ready, allowing for intelligent, automated control and smarter integration.
