Alcons Audio showed the full production version its ultra-compact line-array module the LR14, featuring the patented RBN401 pro-ribbon driver and double 6.5" woofers with a dispersion pattern of 120 x 15°. The LR14 is designed to be used either as an ultra-compact line-array system, or as an under-fill of the LR16.

New on show was the LR14B, the ultra-compact, lightweight, high-output bass module of the LR14 line-array, with double Neodymium 12" double-tuned band-pass configuration. However, the company's main focus was on the official introduction of its new Q-series - based on modular line-source columns with lengths of 1m or 0.5m. Designed as a solution for ultimate intelligibility in "acoustically challenging" environments, the scalable ribbon-arrays combine a very high directivity with totally controlled dispersion, in both vertical and horizontal plane. The series currently consists of two models: the QR18 (0.5m length, with RBN1801 and three 6.5" woofers) and the QR36 (1m length, with two RBN1801 and six 6.5" woofers). Both feature frontal bass reflex-loading and Alcons' patented "Real-90" horizontal dispersion.
