Martin Audio And Partners Set September UK Open Days

Martin Audio, together with sister brands TiMax, Linea Research and Optimal Audio, will run UK Open Days at its High Wycombe headquarters from 22–24 September 2026. Across the three days, five scenario-driven sessions will explore real-world challenges and demonstrate how the four brands combine to deliver standout outcomes for both installation and live sound.

New for 2026, entry requires a £5 registration fee that goes entirely to BackUp Tech, the charity supporting technical professionals’ financial and wellbeing needs. The brand group will match each attendee’s contribution, aiming to raise a minimum of £4,000.

James King, Martin Audio, said: "We want to go beyond spec sheets and provide real-world scenarios to which the industry can relate."

Through projection mapping and immersive audio, visitors will be dropped into a hospitality space, a stadium bowl, a nightclub, a theatre and a festival site. The newly upgraded Wavefront Precision series will feature alongside BlacklineQ, CDD, FlexPoint and TORUS. TiMax will handle spatial rendering, Linea Research will supply amplification, and Optimal Audio will demonstrate the benefits of its ecosystem for small- and medium-sized commercial venues.

"We want to go beyond spec sheets and provide real-world scenarios to which the industry can relate, whilst showcasing how the brands can provide an enhanced solution and a competitive edge to installers and rental partners alike," said James King, Marketing Director. "The event is also a great opportunity to network, not just with all our staff but with industry connections too, as we get a real breadth of visitors, and it’s all done in a relaxed and fun atmosphere."

Aimed at AV installers, system integrators, consultants and live sound specialists, the programme promises practical takeaways for even the most experienced professionals. "They'll get solutions on how to tackle hospitality venues when staff have never been trained on a sound system, or how to maximise revenue for a stadium beyond the match ticket; what it takes for a DJ to flourish in their career; how auditoriums can cater for the widest possible event content; and how to maximise sound for a festival audience, while protecting neighbours from unwanted noise," said King.

Attendees can book for a single day or dip in across the schedule, with the programme repeating daily from 09.30–17.00.

The Open Days will be held at Martin Audio Ltd, Century Point, Halifax Road, High Wycombe, HP12 3SL, with free on-site parking plus complimentary lunch and refreshments.
