Well golly - this makes four years in a row that a NEAR product has won a best of show award at CEDIA Expo. This year two groups of judges selected the NEARSCAPES IG44.1DSP system for the honor. We're blushing.

For the second straight year a NEAR product was honored in the CEPro BEST award competition - the new (Q1 2017 delivery) NEAR 7XL DSP power amplifier.
"The BEST (Best Electronic Systems Technologies) Awards recognize the most noteworthy new products and technologies in the industry." " 'The BEST Awards have quickly become recognized by manufacturers and integrators to represent products that really make a difference in the market,' says Jason Knott, editor-in-chief, CE Pro." "This year's 173 entries were judged on innovation, functionality, competitive advantages and benefits to the installer by a dozen credible industry leaders, along with the editors of CE Pro." |

Praise for the innovations embodied in the NEARSCAPES systems has spread across the globe. The NEARSCAPES 4.1 system was selected by "a team of integrators from around the world" as a Top New Technology award winner at the Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) show in Amsterdam. Judging criteria included technological innovation, benefits to the integrator and benefits to the end user.

The NEARSCAPES 4.1 system was honored with a CE Pro magazine BEST for CEDIA Expo award. It is the only outdoor speaker to win the award in 2015.
To quote CE Pro's website, "An unbiased judging panel of a dozen credible industry leaders, along with the editors of CE Pro, performed the judging independently. Each of the 182 submissions was judged on its own merits for innovation, functionality, competitive advantages and benefits to the integrator." |

A system consisting of NEAR® IG6 speakers and IGS12 subwoofer earned a Top Pick award from industry-leading A/V magazine Sound & Vision. The NEAR 6XL amplifier also received the same award! |

The NEAR® IG8 was voted Best in Show in the outdoor speaker category at CEDIA Expo 2014 by a panel of anonymous custom integrators who actually listened to nominated products. |
|
The NEAR® IG8 in-ground 2-way speaker was selected as an Honoree in the 2015 CES Innovation awards competition. What is especially astounding is that the IG8 competed in the High Performance Audio category, pitted against high-end indoor products. We cannot recall an outdoor speaker ever winning in this category before.
This award validates what we have been saying all along - NEAR delivers audiophile-grade indoor speaker sound in any environment. |
