Coming up on this episode of HTNR, we’ll cover news from the likes of Lumagen, HDMI, Shanling, StormAudio, Apple, Samsung, and friend of the show, Gary Dayton. We also have a huge headline story featuring Onkyo and Premium Audio Company and a well known name, that being Pioneer.

We’ll also take a look at the world of discs and movies, check out which titles AV Nirvana’s Michael Scott has reviewed since we last talked, and check in with Kaleidescape. We also take a look at news and trends in the world of content, and I’ll give you a tip on how to save some money if you’re planning on attending Audio Advice Live next month.
