How to resolve AdBlock issue? KEMPER Kone NEO
Kemper today announce the immediate availability of the new KEMPER Kone NEO replacement Speaker for 12“ loaded guitar cabinets. Now the same speaker from the acclaimed KEMPER Kabinets is also available for a wider range of cabinet designs with new lightweight neodymium speakers for guitar tone monitoring with a choice of 19 classic guitar speaker imprints for PROFILER players with their KEMPER PROFILER PowerRacks and PowerHeads.
The KEMPER Kone is specially designed for the PROFILER and the exclusive and unique speaker tone mining technology developed by KEMPER, making it possible to digitally „imprint“ various speaker characteristics onto one single cabinet.
For the new KEMPER Kone NEO speaker, KEMPER replaced the conventional magnet with a modern lightweight neodymium magnet, providing the identical magnetic field and identical sound of the „classic“ KEMPER Kone. Now the Kone is 1,5 kg lighter than before which makes 2 x 12“ and 4x 12“ cabinet designs much easier to log around.
Cabinets loaded with KEMPER Kone Speakers can be driven by the power amp of a PROFILER PowerHead or PowerRack, as well as by utilizing any external solid-state power amp. When using external stereo amplifiers, driving two Kabinets in stereo is possible. The unpowered PROFILER models like Rack, Head, and Stage require also external power amps for driving the Kabinet NEO.
The KEMPER Kone is a 12“ full-range speaker which is exclusively designed in cooperation with Celestion for KEMPER. The Kone is controlled and driven by the KEMPER PROFILER’s processor to an ultra-linear (full range) frequency response, using a dedicated algorithm. In contrast to the conventional idea of a full-range system, the radiation pattern of the KEMPER Kone has been narrowed towards the physics of a classic guitar speaker chassis, so that even the full-range sound carries a distinct guitar speaker character, unlike regular PA speakers or monitor speakers. To season the speaker behaviour to the player’s individual taste KEMPER offers the unique „Sweetening“ and „Directivity“ Parameters for detailed adjustment.
The 19 included speaker imprints offer the finest choice of well-known guitar speakers from Celestion, and many renowned other classic brands, and even rare and particular speakers. More speaker imprints may be added via future software updates.
The new KEMPER Kone NEO is available as a single unit and as 2 and 4 speaker sets for 2 x 12“ and even 4 x 12“ guitar cabinets. Requests from 3rd party cabinet makers are welcome.
