Ola Björling speaks with Martijn Mensink of Dutch & Dutch at High End Vienna 2026 about the company's new 6c loudspeakers, their RoomMatching technology, and their new app for speaker calibration.

Now that the High End show has moved from Munich to Vienna, what will audiophiles encounter there this week? One thing they'll encounter is not one but a multiplicity of shows—the big, main show, and at least three much smaller shows.

Two major figures in high end audio have quietly moved on from long-held positions.

Miguel Barrio reports on Audio Group Denmark's setup in the Epiphany room at AXPONA 2026, which included an array of Børresen speakers, Aavik electronics, and Ansuz cables and power accessories.

In the second of his two bonus AXPONA 2026 videos, Ken Micallef speaks with Liam Porr of Western Acoustics, Adam Wexler of Resolution Audio Video, and Garth Powell of AudioQuest about the gear in the room they shared together at the show, which included Western Acoustics Type 2.1 bookshelf speakers and AudioQuest cable lifters.

Vinnie Rossi, AudioNostrum, and other key manufacturers will be participating in Vienna Sound Fest 2026, an exclusive international high-end audio event taking place at Tech Gate Vienna from June 4–7, 2026. Vienna Sound Fest is just a 3-minute walk from Austria Center Vienna, the official venue of High End Vienna 2026.

In his final AXPONA 2026 report, Ken Micallef checks out Luxman's latest offerings, including the D-100 Centennial SACD player, NT-07 streaming transport, and L-100 Centennial integrated amplifier.
