Sequence 8: Kling & Freitag Introduce Latest Line Array Speaker Model
Kling & Freitag Showcases Innovative Line Array System at Prolight + Sound
For two decades, German audio technology company Kling & Freitag has been a staple at the Prolight + Sound trade fair, impressing the professional sound reinforcement market with its sound expertise and innovative system solutions. This year, the company unveiled the SEQUENZA 8 line array system as a highlight of its trade fair appearance.
The SEQUENZA 8's standout feature is the TrueShape® horn technology, which Kling & Freitag has developed specifically to maintain an even horizontal sound distribution regardless of the dispersion width. This technology alters the entire horn contour, ensuring consistent high-quality sound across the entire dispersion range.
Three years of development have culminated in a more versatile system, now offering three tool-free switchable options: N (60°), W (90°), and XW (120°). Asymmetrical beam angles can also be realized, providing a significant advantage in complex room conditions.
In addition to its technically advanced horn design, the system also boasts impressive efficiency in the mid and bass range. Four specially developed 4'' mid-range drivers in bass reflex enclosures ensure precise dispersion, while angled woofers enable a compact enclosure design. The system also boasts impressively strong rear attenuation, ideal for stage applications with controlled freedom from feedback.
Technical specifications highlight the SEQUENZA 8's appeal, offering up to three modules per amplifier channel and twelve units per amplifier, ensuring high energy efficiency combined with impressive performance.
Kling & Freitag is also setting new standards in rigging, with its specially developed AutoLock® rigging system. This system significantly reduces the time required for flying and stacking the system, ensuring safety and ease of use.
The compact design, fast rigging, and customizable sound distribution make the SEQUENZA 8 suitable for a wide range of applications, from large concert stages and sports arenas to theatres. Its versatility makes it an ideal system for changing requirements in the touring sector as well as for permanent installations in event venues.
Based in Hanover, Kling & Freitag has been a renowned name in professional audio technology since its inception in 1989. With a focus on high-performance loudspeakers, the company offers numerous innovative systems and prides itself on uncompromising sound quality and technical precision.
The SEQUENZA 8's innovative features and impressive performance have already been demonstrated in beta applications, including the European tour of the band Dirty Loops, the European Darts Championships, and the traditional Three Kings' Day competition of the Four Hills Tournament. Kling & Freitag embodies a commitment to pushing the boundaries of audio technology while maintaining a focus on the listener's sound experience.
