The rationalization of Kling & Freitag sees the company founders returning to their original roles, heading up R&D. Last year they introduced the CA1001, a two-way, full-range cabinet with 85° by 55° dispersion, capable of delivering 124dB peak (@1m). Launched at Frankfurt were the passive and self-powered versions of this cabinet (although the powered version will only just have gone into production by the time you read this.)

Also from K&F, the SW115E is the successor to the SW115D; improvements come from exponential tunnel geometry allowing for higher SPL without distortion, plus an overall improvement in the low bass. K&F are also developing a digital controller: a physical mock-up of the CD24 was on display, intended to be a universal controller for the entire K&F range. Cautiously its spokesman Lars Heinrich predicted that "prototypes might be seen at PLASA this year, but don't expect a production model for maybe two years."
