In our series of #CEDIAShares blogs, we’re talking with exhibitors about the hottest technologies and trends they’re looking to see at CEDIA Expo/CIX 2025.
Q&A with Melvin Diaz, senior product manager at Epson America, Inc.
Why exhibit at CEDIA Expo/CIX 2025?
CEDIA Expo is the premier event for residential technology professionals, offering a unique opportunity to connect, learn, and explore the latest innovations in home entertainment. For Epson, this event is fundamental for showcasing our professional home projector lineup and engaging directly with key influencers, custom integrators, and the residential interior design community. The event also allows us the opportunity to offer hands-on experiences with Epson solutions while gathering valuable insights into the evolving trends and challenges of home entertainment design and installation. This year, we’re excited to present a personalized experience featuring our latest Pro Cinema and Q-Series projectors, designed to meet a wide range of needs, from dedicated home theater buildouts and budget-conscious setups to ultra-short-throw installations tailored for thoughtfully designed living environments.
What is the most exciting trend you expect to see at the show?
The demand for big-screen, immersive entertainment is rising, and home entertainment is evolving to meet ever-expanding viewing and integration needs. As a result, home theater spaces are evolving to meet more viewing needs, presenting new challenges for custom integrators, such as cost restrictions, smart home system integration, specialized installation requirements, and various lighting environments. To meet these growing demands, Epson continues to expand its portfolio of innovative projection solutions, designed to support the diverse needs of home entertainment enthusiasts, custom integrators, and design professionals alike.
What will you focus on at the show?
From our premium Q-Series to the new Pro Cinema LS9000, Epson will showcase a range of innovative projection installations at CEDIA — each one addressing unique end-user needs and demonstrating solutions for integrators and design professionals to meet the various demands. A key highlight will be a high-performance, high-value home theater experience powered by the Pro Cinema LS9000. Attendees will also be immersed in bright, high-detailed, 4K HDR content with Epson’s latest Q-Series projectors. In addition, the booth will feature multiple ultra-short-throw projection setups, underscoring the power and flexibility of stealth projection, featuring the QL7000 high-lumen projector with the ELPL-X02S short-throw lens and the QS100 UST projector paired with an ELPM-B75 wall mount — built specifically for design-forward spaces.
