The 138th Convention featured representation from over 50 audio brands displaying and debuting the latest audio gear and technology, and one of the largest Technical Programs in recent years. "The Warsaw convention exceeded our goals in many areas, and I'm extremely grateful to everyone who came and made it happen,” stated Bob Moses, AES Executive Director. “Attendance was higher than we dared hope for, and the caliber of research and training sessions was excellent. It was gratifying to see people in the hallways and lounges discussing the day's topics late into the night."
