Neat Acoustics enjoyed a highly successful High End 2026, with strong attendance across both our exhibition stand and demonstration room, and an overwhelmingly positive response to the launch of the new Vito Classic loudspeaker.
Visitors were able to experience the Vito Classic partnered with the new Cyrus 80 streaming amplifier, a combination that attracted considerable attention throughout the show. The system demonstrated the qualities that have long defined Neat loudspeakers: musical engagement, natural timing, expansive soundstaging and surprisingly deep bass from a relatively compact footprint.
The Vito Classic represents the largest model in our Classic Series and takes inspiration from the original Vito loudspeaker of the 1990s. Featuring dedicated chambers for its bass, midrange and tweeter drive units, the design combines scale, control and refinement in a package that remains true to Neat's philosophy of putting music first.
The reception from the audio press was particularly encouraging.
HiFi Pig described the system as:
"The new Cyrus 80 Amp was running into the brand-new Neat Acoustics Vito Classic speakers – and what a great setup this was. The Cyrus sounds fantastic and easily drives these speakers, which sound excellent with a wide soundstage and that signature superb bass response from Neat."
The Ear commented:
"Neat's founder Bob Surgeoner was playing some good tunes through the new Vito Classic speakers on the end of a Cyrus 80 streaming amp."
Meanwhile, AVForums highlighted the technical design of the speaker and concluded:
"This is another speaker I'm very much looking forward to."
Beyond the press coverage, the most rewarding aspect of the show was the feedback from distributors, dealers and music lovers who spent time listening to the Vito Classic. Many commented on its ability to combine authority and scale with the openness and musicality for which Neat has become known.
We would like to thank everyone who visited us during the exhibition, along with our partners at Cyrus Audio for helping create one of the most talked-about systems at the show.
The Vito Classic is expected to be available from September 2026 through authorised Neat Acoustics dealers worldwide.
