New Gear

EAW introduced the first two products in the new Avalon by EAW line of dance club loudspeaker systems: CLUB.two and CLUB.three, designed in partnership with club designer/owner John Lyons, who previously worked with EAW in the late 1990s (hence the “two” and “three” in the model names.)

Grund Audio Design recently added the GT-1520M and GT-1220M to the company’s GT Series floor monitor line. They feature two-way, bass reflex and dual angle enclosure designs, and promise to be versatile enough to be well-suited for both portable and fixed sound reinforcement applications.

Beyma featured its PW series with new ceramic magnet system designs at Prolight + Sound 2012. The first to arrive are the 21” 21PW1400Fe and 18” 18PW1400Fe. Both are extended low frequency transducers designed for vented configurations, and both feature Beyma’s Malt Cross system, a new cooling system (patent pending) that lets the speakers to handle up to 2800 program power, reducing the losses due to power compression using a 4-inch double layer inner/outer voice coil.

Riedel Communications’ MediorNet Compact is positioned as cost-effective and easy-to-use entry into the Riedel MediorNet world of integrated media signal distribution and processing. It provides the flexibility of a true real-time media network, including integrated signal processing, at the cost of simple multiplexing point-to-point products. With a network bandwidth of 50 Gbit/s, it provides enough capacity for bi-directional transport of 12 HD-SDI signals, dozens of MADI streams or Gbit-Ethernet signals and hundreds of audio channels or intercom ports – well-suited for streamlining the infrastructure of any mobile, studio or live event application.

With the introduction of the 2-way active SM2110, ISP says its High Definition Distributed System (HDDS) can now rival the output of conventional speaker systems. The SM2110 is a 220W self powered speaker that receives line level signal over dual Cat6 cables from a remote HDDS Master Control Module.
