The LR7 is a micro pro-ribbon line-array system, designed to be used in stacked or as a flown configuration, for both portable and permanent installations. With a width of three CD's and a height of 1.5 CD's, the LR7 is designed for A/V projects, where very compact form factor with perfect line-array throw and imaging are required.
The new LR7B is the low frequency extension of the LR7 system. Sized with a width and height of 3CD's, a single 12" in a dual-tuned, concentric bandpass configuration caters for clean low-mid and broad-band bass response from a micro-sized and weight efficient package.
As usual, Alcons will exhibit a new design study, providing a glimpse of its R+D activities by displaying assembled prototype developments, some of which may be applied in future products. This year's design study is called MSRA, Modular Stacked Ribbon Array. This concept is a scalable high-power line-source monitor system, based on vertically stacked modules, applying the arrayability of Alcons' proprietary pro-ribbon technology.
To enable visitors to get an idea of the quality performance of Alcons sound systems, low-SPL demos will take place on the stand, with the VR8 compact monitor and the BF151 bass system. A selection of other Alcons highlights will be on display as well.
