SME will be at the UK HiFi Show 2025, held on 27–28 September at the Ascot Racecourse Grandstand. Together with Cadence, SME will be exhibiting in the Parade Ring, Level 2 Room, where a full programme of demonstrations will take place. The Ascot HiFi Show is one of the major dates in the British hi-fi calendar, and we are pleased to present a wide range of SME turntables across the weekend.
