Here Are All the EISA 2025-2026 Awards in Audio Categories

The Expert Imaging & Sound Association (EISA) revealed the winners of its 2025-2026 Awards. Technical experts from over 54 specialist magazines and websites in 27 countries across the world have recognized and awarded the best products in their categories. The 43rd edition of the awards recognizes stand-out products in hifi, home theater, mobile and car audio. This year there are again surprises and predictable winners, but the unexplainable absence of leading products in home audio, personal audio, and particularly in the true wireless category continues.

VANA, Ltd. is now the North American distributor for European Audio Team’s (E.A.T.) line of vacuum tubes made in the Czech Republic. E.A.T. is dedicated to hand making the finest 300B and KT88 tubes tested on custom made instruments to meet the highest standards. E.A.T. Vacuum Tubes are painstakingly handcrafted within a former Tesla factory in the Czech Republic, under the supervision of Jozefina Lichtenegger and using the manufacturing equipment previously in the Tesla Vrsovice factory.

Bridging the price gap between far more costly premium products and lesser performing budget models, the C-Major turntable from European Audio Team breaks new ground for vinyl enthusiasts. This new entry level offering from E.A.T. represents a completely new price point for the brand, satisfying those who would like to purchase turntables with greater performance and sophistication than that which is available in the budget sector, but with a price point below the widely-acclaimed C-Sharp – E.A.T.’s most successful turntable to date.
