AVOZ to Showcase OpenAudio HOLOWHAS 8-Zone Whole-Home Audio at StereoNET Melbourne 2026
OpenAudio’s Australian distribution partner AVOZ will showcase the HOLOWHAS+ 8-zone whole-home streaming amplifier at StereoNET Melbourne Hi-Fi & AV Expo 2026, giving Australian visitors an opportunity to experience the HOLOWHAS multi-room audio platform in a real system setup.
Taking place from 16–18 October at Pullman Melbourne Albert Park, the event will give visitors a hands-on opportunity to discover how HOLOWHAS+ combines independent music streaming, multi-zone amplification, DSP, audio routing and professional control integration within a single platform.
Eight Zones. Independent Music. One Integrated System.
At the heart of the demonstration is HOLOWHAS+, an 8-zone whole-home streaming amplifier designed to give every room its own independent music experience without requiring a separate streamer and amplifier for each zone.
A single HOLOWHAS+ provides:
8× AirPlay 2, 8× Google Cast, 8× Spotify Connect and 8× Qobuz Connect, allowing different users to play different music in different rooms simultaneously.
HOLOWHAS+ combines these independent streaming capabilities with 16 × 110W of amplification across 8 zones, together with HDMI ARC, DSP, matrix routing and flexible zone control.
The result is a streamlined whole-home audio architecture that brings streaming, amplification, signal processing and multi-zone control into one integrated system, reducing the number of separate components traditionally required.
For projects with different power requirements, the HOLOWHAS family also includes HOLOWHAS Ultra and HOLOWHAS Max, extending the same integrated multi-zone platform across different amplification levels.
From Whole-Home Audio to Professional Integration
HOLOWHAS is designed not only for music streaming, but also as part of the wider smart-home and professional AV ecosystem.
Native integration with KNX, together with support for Control4, RTI, Home Assistant and Web API, allows lighting, automation and control systems to interact directly with the audio platform.
For larger residential, hospitality and commercial applications, the wider HOLOWHAS ecosystem also supports 70V/100V distributed audio and Dante/AES67 network audio, extending the platform into more demanding professional installations.
This makes the same platform suitable for applications ranging from individual homes and villas to larger multi-zone projects.
Hear HOLOWHAS in Melbourne
At StereoNET Melbourne 2026, visitors will be able to see and experience HOLOWHAS+ through Australian distribution partner AVOZ, where the system will be demonstrated as part of a real audio setup.
Rather than simply viewing the product in a rack, visitors can explore how HOLOWHAS works as the centre of a complete multi-room audio system — from streaming and amplification to speakers and system control.
