CRI at CES 2026

This coming January, CRI Middleware will exhibit at the world’s largest tech show, CES 2026 in Las Vegas, marking our first appearance at the event!

We will present CRI D-Amp Driver × GaN, a next-generation fully-digital amplifier that combines CRI’s proprietary method for driving speakers with GaN (gallium nitride) power semiconductors.

CRI’s original CRI D-Amp Driver technology is already embedded in over 20 million units worldwide, while GaN semiconductors are increasingly used in compact power electronics like mobile batteries and adapters.

The combination of both brings advantages in power use, heat management, and audio performance compared to traditional solutions. Unlike when working with conventional analog amplifiers, very few external components (like low-pass filters) are required.

This new amplifier is aimed at environments where power efficiency, compact size, and sound quality are important — such as future mobility platforms and in-vehicle entertainment systems. We believe it will deliver high-quality audio for music, movies, and even karaoke in software-defined vehicles (SDVs).

In addition, we will present the CRI ADX Automotive sound middleware for mobility systems, which enables the design of control and warning sounds (e.g., vehicle proximity alerts).

Join us January 6–9, 2026, at the Vegas Convention Center, West Hall, Booth 4378, to see these products!
