rAVe HomeAV Edition

Howdy from Las Vegas, y’all! It’s the first day of InfoComm, and by the time you’re reading this, our team is in the thick of it. Of course, this isn’t a classically residential show, so not too many announcements here within. However, AVIXA has launched RESIDE: a new show focused on residential tech, which will debut with the newly acquired Lightapalooza at next year’s InfoComm. What are your thoughts? Feel free to respond to this and let me know.

In the meantime, enjoy the latest news. Talk soon!
