EISA, or the Expert Imaging and Sound Association, is an organization representing 60 of the most respected special interest publications and websites from 29 countries that cover Hi-Fi, Home Theater Video, Home Theater Audio, Photography, Mobile Devices, and In-Car Electronics. Every year EISA’s Expert Group members, including editors from this publication, test a very wide range of new products from their field of expertise before comparing results and voting to decide the cream of every product category.
To win an EISA award all products undergo a comprehensive multi-step judging process. So, while EISA’s annual Convention in Antwerp in May and Awards Meeting in June were, once again, both cancelled due to the pandemic and travel chaos, the comprehensiveness of the Association’s product testing was not diminished. EISA hosted no fewer than 50 webinars that put new technologies, and brands, in front of its expert editorial audience. This, combined with regular video conferences for the Expert Groups, and the shipment of products between member countries, allowed judging to extend over many months, fueling lengthy and highly informed discussions. EISA’s democratic voting process was reinforced, establishing a consensus of excellence that ultimately determined the winning products.

XGIMI Aura
EISA UST PROJECTOR 2022-2023
With an eye-catching curved-top design and wallet-friendly price, XGIMI’s AURA has serious kerb appeal even before you see it action. Yet it’s this ultra-short-throw (UST) projector’s picture performance that seals the deal, marked by a brightness output – from a laser light source – that makes it an excellent model for daytime viewing, and an enthralling experience with HDR content. Black depth and 4K image sharpness also impress, as does the detailed, punchy sound from the AURA’s in-built Harman Kardon speaker system. Smart features, provided by the Android OS, include video-on-demand apps and screen mirroring, ensuring this high-performance UST projector lives up to its home entertainment promise.
