Henley Audio are delighted to announce that four of our brands have proudly secured prestigious EISA Awards in the 2025-2026 round of awards. These accolades span a wide range of categories—from entry-level excellence to high-end performance—demonstrating the strength and versatility of our offerings.
What Are the EISA Awards?
The EISA (Expert Imaging and Sound Association) Awards are internationally recognised honours that celebrate the very best in consumer electronics. Each year, EISA’s expert panel evaluates newly launched products across multiple technology sectors, including Hi-Fi, Home Theatre, Photography, Mobile Devices, and more. Winning an EISA Award is a mark of outstanding innovation, performance, and value.
Henley Audio's 2025 EISA Award Winners
This year, we debuted in the Home Theatre & Vision category with Loewe's flagship Stellar 65 DR+, a premium OLED TV that truly lives up to its name. Alongside this, our hi-fi portfolio continued to shine with four additional awards:
Pro-Ject E1.2 Turntable – Best Value Turntable
The Pro-Ject E1.2 is a budget-friendly turntable that doesn’t compromise on quality. Hand-made in Europe, it features a precision-balanced 730g die-cast aluminium platter for stable playback and reduced resonance, a factory-set Pick it MM E cartridge for smooth, warm sound, and a solid composite fibre chassis for vibration-free performance. Its plug-and-play design makes it perfect for vinyl newcomers.
EISA praised the E1.2 for its robust bass, rich vocals, and ease of setup, calling it a “well-rounded offering” in the budget segment. With thoughtful extras like a dust cover, felt mat, and high-quality RCA cable, it’s a complete package that delivers serious value.
E.A.T. F-Dur Turntable – Premium Turntable
The F-Dur Turntable by European Audio Team brings high-end engineering to a more accessible price point, inspired by the iconic Forte S. With a 27kg satin-black chassis, dual AC motors, a TPE-damped aluminium platter, and the precision-crafted 12" F-Note tonearm, it’s built for serious vinyl enthusiasts.
EISA praised the F-Dur for its exceptional build quality and heartfelt performance, highlighting its resonance control, speed stability, and ease of setup. It’s a true audiophile-grade turntable that brings listeners closer to their music.
Musical Fidelity B1xi – Best Value Integrated Amplifier
The B1xi blends Musical Fidelity’s classic amplifier design with modern versatility, offering 60W of Class A/B power, a built-in DAC, HDMI ARC, Bluetooth, and a high-quality MM phono stage. It’s engineered for pure sound, with a separated internal layout and premium components that ensure long-lasting performance.
EISA praised the B1xi as a smart, modern revival of a 1980s icon, highlighting its improved circuit design, reduced RF interference, and thoughtful omission of Wi-Fi streaming to preserve sound quality and longevity. It’s a sensible, high-performing hub for both music and TV sound.
Musical Fidelity M8x Vinyl – Phono Preamplifier
The M8x Vinyl is a flagship phono stage designed for serious vinyl enthusiasts, offering fully discrete and balanced circuitry, multiple EQ curves, and extensive input/output flexibility. With ultra-low noise, precise gain and loading options, and robust build quality, it delivers reference-level sound that’s true to the original recording.
EISA praised the M8x Vinyl for its rich, detailed sound and superb channel separation, calling it a phono stage that “ticks all the boxes.” Its thoughtful design and upgrade-ready flexibility make it ideal for getting the best from any vinyl setup.
Loewe Stellar 65 DR+ – Premium OLED TV
The Loewe Stellar 65 DR+ redefines luxury home entertainment with its elegant design, customisable lighting, and cutting-edge OLED technology. Handcrafted in Germany, it features a META 3.0 OLED panel with 2200 nits brightness, Dolby Vision IQ, and a powerful 80W soundbar for immersive audio-visual performance. Smart features include dual-tuner recording, and HDMI 2.1 for high-end gaming.
