Legacy Audio Selected for Groundbreaking Dubai SoundCultureProject
Posted January 2025
Dubai, UAE – January 2025 – Legacy Audio, a pioneering manufacturer of high-performance audio systems, is proud to announce its selection as one of five distinguished companies for the highly anticipated SoundCultureProject in Dubai. The exclusive event, curated by Robert Harley, Editor of The Absolute Sound, brought together industry leaders and innovators to explore the future of high-performance audio.

Founder and President of Legacy Audio, Bill Dudleston, alongside James Thompson, Legacy Technical Director, were invited by Mr. Harley to participate in this cutting-edge event, hosted by Nilesh Khalkho, CEO of Sharaf DG, Legacy’s exclusive Dubai distributor. Legacy was honored to join a select group of influential companies, including Focal, Project Audio Turntables, Wireworld, and Crystal Cables.
The event served as an unparalleled platform for collaboration and knowledge-sharing. Representatives from each company participated in immersive training sessions, refining the art of assembling high-performance audio systems. Additionally, roundtable discussions delved into the evolution of the audio industry, exploring both current trends and future innovations.
The global demand for high-quality music has reached unprecedented heights, with listeners enjoying more recorded music than ever before. Vinyl continues its resurgence, as highlighted by Heinz Lichtenegger, CEO of Project Audio Turntables. Simultaneously, the digital landscape is thriving, with streaming platforms seeing a staggering 100,000 new songs available daily.

High-resolution audio is now a reality with services such as Qobuz and Tidal, and streaming speeds that easily accommodate high-resolution audio. Legacy Audio systems are designed to integrate both vinyl playback and high-resolution digital streaming. The Legacy Wavelet 2 supports playback up to 384kHz allowing the listener to experience the best of both worlds.

The SoundCultureProject culminated with an exciting grand opening where audiophiles experienced a dozen cutting-edge audio systems across five dedicated acoustic spaces. Legacy’s offerings, including the flagship VALOR, AERIS XD, Focus XD, and Calibre speakers, were featured alongside Legacy’s powerful i·V1 ULTRA mono bloc amplifiers and Wavelet 2 processor.
During the event, Bill Dudleston discussed the importance of controlled directivity and time alignment in Legacy Audio speaker designs, which he has pioneered throughout the company’s 40+ year history. His patents for advanced circuit topologies and acoustic alignments work with the Legacy Wavelet 2 to eliminate room interference problems and enhance performance for the listener in any environment.

The SoundCultureProject marks a pivotal moment in the world of high-performance audio, and Legacy Audio is proud to have been a key part of this groundbreaking event. As the audio industry continues to evolve, Legacy remains committed to pushing the boundaries of audio performance, delivering unparalleled listening experiences for audiophiles and music lovers.
Legacy Audio has been named “The Avatar of What The Next Generation of Speakers Should Be," received numerous Speaker of The Year & Editors' Choice Awards, and is utilized by many music industry professionals.
