As the AV landscape continues to evolve, today’s installers are faced with a dynamic challenge: how to keep up with an ever-expanding ecosystem of products, protocols, and expectations, while still delivering seamless, reliable installations that meet the exacting demands of both residential and commercial clients. At OneAV, we understand that challenge and we’re here to help installers turn it into an opportunity.
That’s why our team is looking forward to this year’s EI Live! where we’ll be exhibiting at Stand 15, strategically positioned next to HDA and uControl, and directly across from the Monitor Audio lounge. It’s a prime location for anyone serious about next-generation AV.
A Partner-First Approach
What sets OneAV apart is our commitment to supporting the custom installer. We don’t just supply AV products, we provide guidance, support, and solutions tailored to the day-to-day realities of integration work. Our role as a distributor goes beyond logistics. We aim to be a trusted technical resource and strategic partner.
Installers visiting our stand can expect conversations focused on real-world applications, common installation pain points, and how to streamline workflows. Whether it’s simplifying video distribution with Just Add Power, solving power management challenges with GUDE, or integrating unified control systems via uControl, we’re there to offer clarity, not clutter.
Empowering Integration with Leading Brands
We’re proud to represent a curated portfolio of best-in-class brands, including HDA, Monitor Audio, WiiM, Displine, CEL-FI, Aquavision, Shelly, Proofvision, Cloud, Lilin and Umbra, among many others. These aren’t just manufacturers, they’re innovation partners, each selected for their proven reliability and relevance to the installer market.
The focus at the show will be on helping integrators deliver complete, integrated AV experiences. With network infrastructure playing an increasingly central role in AV, expect to see how we support installers through networking solutions (NETGEAR), audio (Onkyo, Roksan, Musical Fidelity), smart power (Shelly, GUDE), control (uControl), and much more.
Technical Insight and Practical Advice
While some distributors concentrate on pricing and volume, we prioritise technical insight and human support. From pre-sales consultation through to post-installation support, our team is geared to help installers overcome hurdles and deliver exceptional results.
Our stand is not a catalogue, it’s a conversation. A place to explore new technologies, ask the tough questions, and get honest, experienced feedback. Whether you’re navigating HDMI over IP, specifying commercial audio, or building a smart home from the ground up, we’re ready to support your journey.
A Stronger Installer Community
Events like EI Live! are more than product showcases, they’re about strengthening the installer community. At OneAV, we believe that when installers are empowered with the right tools, knowledge, and partners, the entire AV ecosystem benefits.
We look forward to welcoming both new and familiar faces to Stand 15. Drop by for a discussion, see what’s new in our line-up, and connect with a team that’s passionate about helping you succeed.
