Lab.gruppen and Lake will be exhibiting at InfoComm 2011, alongside sister company Tannoy at Booth 709, with the brands additionally sharing Demo Room 204C.
InfoComm is regarded as the largest and most comprehensive pro-AV event in the world, with more than 32,000 AV professionals and 950+ exhibitors. As such, this year’s event presents Lab.gruppen and Lake with the premiere platform to launch some major product innovations in North America.
Leading the charge will be the first official live demonstration of Tannoy’s VX Series and VXP Series the latter featuring Lab.gruppen’s new IDEEA™ (IntelliDrive™ Energy Efficient Amplifier) power module. The new passive and self-powered sound reinforcement lines build on the overwhelming success of the existing V Series range, with an expanded line-up that includes twin driver configurations and new QCW (Q-Centric™ Waveguide) transducer technology for optimal tonal clarity, LF performance and greater pattern control. The addition of Lab.gruppen’s IDEEA module also affords new levels of reliability and efficiency in the self-powered solution, in the form of VXP Series. Lab.gruppen’s C Series installation-dedicated amplifiers will be powering the new VX Series models on demonstration. InfoComm will be the first opportunity to hear these new products in action throughout the day in Demo Room 204C.
In another InfoComm exclusive, Lab.gruppen intend to give an advanced preview of its forthcoming Energy Star-compliant E Series. Due for launch in late Q3, E Series is a brand new 2-channel, 1U amplifier platform that promises to bring the superior sound quality and exceptional reliability that defines the Lab.gruppen brand, to a wider, more extensive range of potential installed sound applications thanks to its power density and highly competitive price point. Comprising of 3 models ranging from 1200 W to 400 W output, E Series also promises to define new standards in its class for efficiency, making it star performer where green credentials are concerned.
Marc Bertrand, CEO at TC Group Americas (TCGA), said: “VX Series and VXP Series marks the first time that Tannoy and Lab.gruppen have collaborated on a range in this way, and we’ve got the technology spot on with these new products. With E Series coming later this year – and exclusively previewing at the show – we’re making tangible progress towards offering a truly integrated solution where the installed sound market is concerned.” TCGA is the exclusive distributor for Lab.gruppen, Lake, Tannoy and a number of other prestige product lines for the Americas.
