High End Munich 2020 Announces Alan Parsons as Brand Ambassador

The High End Society has announced Alan Parsons as Steven Wilson's replacement as the brand ambassador of High End 2020.

High End Munich 2020 has presented Alan Parsons as the face of the international hi-fi trade show, which takes place from 14th to 17th May in the MOC Munich. High End Society, the organiser of the show, states this is a continuation of the theme started in 2018 of enlisting a prominent artist to underscore the symbiosis between music and technology.

At the High End, over 500 international exhibitors present high-quality products that promise excellent sound reproduction.

Stefan Dreischärf, Managing Director of the High End Society Service GmbH, told StereoNET:

Alan Parsons embodies this symbiosis like no other artist. With his superb recording technology, he is extraordinarily successful at bringing the magic of his compositions to our living rooms.

Alan Parsons has been Grammy-nominated 13 times and, in 2018, he received the coveted award for Best Immersive Audio Album.  

London-born Parsons launched his career at the famous Abbey Road Studios. Here he collaborated as an assistant on the last two Beatles albums before becoming known as the sound engineer on audiophile favourite, Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon.

In 1975, with the Alan Parsons Project, he went on to forge a name for himself penning his own songs. Apparently, Lucifer remains the theme tune for Monitor, a political weekly show on German TV.

Still very active, Parsons released his new studio album, The Secret, last year and toured America and Europe with the Alan Parsons Live Project. Additionally, he took to the stage alongside other stars, during the Night of the Proms, at the end of 2019.  This year he will be the featured guest at the High End 2020 in Munich.

applause awards

Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.

Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.

The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.

We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
