On Friday, May 16, 2025, the bustling halls of the MOC Event Center in Munich set the stage for Day 2 of the HIGH END audio show, where United Photo Press dedicated its second day to filming 41 high-resolution demonstrations on the exhibition’s second floor. The HIGH END is renowned as the world’s leading international audio exhibition, bringing together over 500 exhibitors, 1,000 brands, and more than 22,000 visitors from over 40 countries across 30,000 m² of exhibition space. Over its four days, the event unites audio experts, producers, retailers, and music lovers under one roof to explore groundbreaking trends and world premieres in high-fidelity technology.
Beyond loudspeakers and streamers, Hall 1’s WORLD OF HEADPHONES zone has drawn crowds of enthusiasts eager to experience cutting-edge personal audio setups. Walking through the second-floor corridors felt like stepping into a curated sound gallery, where each soundproofed room showcased studio‑grade stereo systems and bespoke acoustic treatments. United Photo Press, a Munich‑based visual storytelling known for creating compelling narratives, leveraged its expertise to bring each listening session to life.
Using state‑of‑the‑art 4K cameras and ambisonic microphone arrays, the team captured every subtle detail of the presentations, from the warmth of tube‑driven amplifiers to the transparency of titanium‑tweeter speakers. Among the 41 recordings, listeners will find an array of demonstrations—from vintage components to modern digital streamers—highlighting the diversity of today’s high‑end audio landscape. The immersive footage oscillates between tight close‑ups of precision-crafted drivers and sweeping chamber views, reflecting United Photo Press’s commitment to both technical rigor and artistic framing.
All 41 videos are now live and can be viewed in high resolution on the United Photo Press Facebook page at www.facebook.com/unitedphotopress.
As this edition marks the final Munich appearance of HIGH END before it relocates to Vienna, these recordings serve as a rich audiovisual archive of the show’s storied legacy. We invite readers and fellow audiophiles worldwide to press play and immerse themselves in the art and engineering of high‑fidelity reproduction, captured by United Photo Press at Munich’s grand audio spectacle.
