PROSPECTS

High penetration rate and modern substitutes to restrain demand

With a high household penetration rate for home audio in France, consumers are not keen to spend on classic equipment, such as stand-alone audio separates, speakers and hi-fi systems. Except for purists and consumers who are seeking high-end classic audio devices, a growing proportion of French consumers are switching to modern substitutes, notably wireless speakers and blue-tooth headsets, smartphones instead of clock radios and online on-demand audio streaming versus the conventional stations.

Value creation of high essence

In a highly mature landscape, trade experts agree that the best strategy is to focus on innovating upmarket; they believe that there will always remain purists and a niche consumer base seeking excellence in sound quality and who are willing to spend on products with premium prices. This is the driving force of Yamaha, which, over 2017-2018, met with a positive consumer response for its upmarket launches such as the Musiccast R-N803D and Audio Receiver R-V902; these devices come with a plethora of technological prowess, boast versatility and offer high-end sound features that appeal to sophisticated consumers.

Digital Audio Broadcasting may be too late

French authorities under the recommendation of the CSA (Conseil Supérieur de l’Audiovisuel – French Broadcasting Authority) will begin to deploy DAB+ (Digital Audio Broadcasting) technology in France with the objective of reaching nationwide coverage by 2023. However, by the end of 2020, it is planned to be fully deployed in most densely populated cities and regions.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Sony retains leadership

As home audio and cinema continues to wane in France, historical brands with a strong established image and reputation are resisting decline. Apart from Yamaha, all major brands witnessed volume decline over 2016-2018, and this is going to continue into the forecast period.

Immersive audio – the next competitive edge

In an attempt to bring game-changing technology, some manufacturers of home audio and cinema are actively researching and attempting to develop a high-end “immersive audio experience”. This is a departure away from the conventional surround over to spatial-360° systems which bring the listener closer to several audio-related activities into an immersive environment – offering life-like reality.

Home audio and interior design

Perhaps one way through which manufacturers may potentially differentiate themselves, apart from technology and technicalities, is via aesthetics of home design. The uptrend is in favour of blending – whereby households seek to blend in modern/qualitative electronics with their interior design.
