Press Release: Leon Introduces New Products, New Collaborations at CEDIA Expo 2024

Leon is empowering designers and integrators to bring the finishing touch to every space with all-new products, special events, and collaborations with Sony, Meridian, LG, Sonos, and More.

[Ann Arbor, MI] – August 21, 2024 – Leon brings its signature approach to CEDIA Expo 2024 with several new ways for designers and integrators to bring the finishing touch to every space. A celebration of the creative process, Leon’s Booth #3916 layout encourages attendees to explore a three-step approach of incorporating technology into the design of any room: framing the TV, adding custom-matched sound, and enhancing the look with Leon’s one-of-a-kind stylistic centerpieces.

Making its debut at CEDIA is the Edge Flex Frame—a groundbreaking new addition to Leon’s popular Edge Media Frame line compatible with any TV less than 2” deep. With its lower price, easy on-site assembly, and flat-pack ultra-fast shipping, Flex Frame is poised to set a new standard in TV framing.

Building upon the success of the Leon Studio Frame for BRAVIA XR, Leon and Sony will also debut the latest Studio Frame for Sony BRAVIA 7—featuring two new sizes and complemented by the award-winning FrameBar 44UX. Additional solutions displayed include Leon's flagship line of high-performance built-to-match Horizon Soundbars, classic hardwood Edge Media Frame, Ente SoundTile MINI’s fusion of art and audio, the Mera Sound Sconce sound-and-light fixture, Elite Moving Art Screen, and Terra Outdoor Speakers’ stylish, functional, and durable solutions.

Leon’s design-oriented solutions can also be seen at the booths of partners and collaborators across the show floor. At Sony’s Booth #2502, all four sizes and finishes of the new Leon Studio Frame for Sony BRAVIA 7 will be on display, while a fifth model will be showcased at the Sonos Booth (#3508). The all-new Edge Flex Frame will be displayed at the LG Booth (#3101) and Legrand Booth (#1506), and an exclusive preview of the upcoming Leon Edge Media Frame for Meridian—an elegant hardwood on-wall media mounting solution specifically for Meridian’s range of high performance architectural loudspeakers—will debut at Meridian’s Booth #C1305.

The interior of Leon’s iconic on-site airstream trailer will explore the past and the future of technology and design with a tribute to the late 1960s and an exclusive preview of Leon’s brand new online design tool from Cogent 360.

Leon Unveils the Edge Flex Frame: The Future of Ultra-Thin TV Framing

Leon’s new Edge Flex Frame is a revolutionary solution designed to transform any ultra-thin TV into a work of art. With meticulous attention to detail and a sleek, contemporary design, Flex Frame sets a new standard in TV framing. This highly anticipated new addition to Leon’s popular Edge Media Frame line will make its debut at CEDIA 2024, with pre-orders opening up after the show.

As end users increasingly seek simple, design-conscious solutions for their living spaces, the Edge Flex Frame answers the call. Its precision-engineered frame measuring 2.75” deep installed, along with the included SANUS LL11 slim-fit TV mounting bracket, ensures a sleek and unobtrusive profile to provide a finished look for any space. Available in 4 premium finishes, every Edge Flex Frame ships flat-pack via ground shipping, allowing for quick and efficient delivery.

The Leon Studio Frame for Sony BRAVIA 7 Transforms a New Generation of Sony TVs into Sophisticated Works of Art

Building upon the success of Leon’s Studio Frame for Sony BRAVIA XR, this updated version introduces two new additional sizes and several enhanced features. Like its predecessor, the Leon Studio Frame for Sony BRAVIA 7 is meticulously crafted to elevate the ultra-HD display of the Sony BRAVIA 7 into a sophisticated work of art. 

With new 55” and 85” options added to Studio Frame’s existing 65” and 75” sizes, added artwork options on the exclusive Sony Art Gallery TV app, and a convenient new on-board IR receiver, this groundbreaking new solution is the perfect complement to Sony’s popular mini-LED configuration. With four stylish finishes to choose from, the Studio Frame enhances both the aesthetics and functionality of your BRAVIA TV experience.

Every TV Deserves the Finishing Touch of an Edge Media Frame

Leon’s popular Edge Media line of handcrafted hardwood frames are a simple and modern way to upgrade any TV for the design-conscious client–elevating the look of any and every installation.

Just as every picture deserves a frame, every TV deserves an Edge Frame from Leon. Unsightly plastic framing, visible cables, and bulky mounting equipment can detract from the style of a space, but Edge Frame’s selection of beautiful hardwood finishes do just the opposite.

Available for both standalone TVs and TV-soundbar setups, Edge Frames are easy to install and built to fit the exact dimensions of any size television. Edge is available in a variety of Leon standard finishes with additional options for custom paint matching.

Mera Sound Sconce—the Ultimate Expression of Sound, Light, and Design.

A unique combination of form and function suited to high-design residences and hospitality-oriented commercial environments, the wall-mounted Mera Sound Sconce represents Leon’s exciting creative collaboration with the design and architecture firm, Mera Studio Architects. 

This game-changing new solution delivers full-range audio and dimmable lighting in three unique colorways—elevating the sound, look, and feel of any commercial space. Its artisan-inspired design integrates Leon’s world-class audio components and diffused LED lighting by American Lighting.
