The Renaissance Roadshow: Whisky a Go Go in Edinburgh

renaissance roadshow 4.2026

17 April 2026: The Renaissance Roadshow returns to home turf on Thursday 7th May with a special event at Loud & Clear Edinburgh. At the heart of the day will be the award-winning Audiovector R 10 Arreté loudspeakers that will be playing in the beautiful Edinburgh showroom. To add a different flavour to the occasion, Tailored Spirits will be offering free whisky tasting sessions. This is a unique opportunity to enjoy exceptional speakers paired with premium spirits.

The Audiovector R 10 Arreté is a no-compromise floor standing loudspeaker that redefines what’s possible in audio design. Handmade in Denmark, the R 10 Arreté features a suite of the latest Audiovector innovations including the Dual Air Motion Transformer. Working in harmony with Audiovector’s Soundstage Enhancement Concept (SEC), it delivers an exceptionally open, precise, and three-dimensional treble – allowing music not only to be heard but truly felt. A new benchmark in craftsmanship and acoustic engineering, the beautifully elegant R 10 Arreté is designed to enthrall the most discerning of listeners.

Tailored Spirits create extraordinary, one-of-a-kind whisky and premium spirits. With inimitable access to an ever-changing selection of high-quality Scotch whisky casks and premium spirits, they can create your perfect dram in a bespoke bottle. They offer expert spirits design and bottling guidance every step of the way.

Guests will enjoy a lively and informative presentation from the Renaissance team and Hans-Henrik from Audiovector, followed by an unforgettable listening session. There will be whisky tasting sessions and, for those who are not fans, they can try the wine, sherry or port used for ageing the whisky. In addition to the R 10 Arreté, the full range of Audiovector loudspeakers will be on display. Warm hospitality, friendly conversation, and good music are guaranteed.

“This promises to be a great event featuring the perfect combination of extraordinary hi-fi, good music and exceptional whisky,” said John Carroll, Managing Director of Renaissance. “I know that our guests will love this opportunity to hear the R 10 Arretés. After all, it’s not every day that one gets the chance to listen to a pair of £129,500 loudspeakers in a £375,000 system whilst drinking fine whisky.”
