KEMPER LAUNCHES “ULTIMATE CABINET SOLUTION” FOR PROFILER PLAYERS WITH NEW KABINET AND KONE

- WORDS: RICHARD BIEN STOCK

Kemper has unveiled two new cab options for its Profiler guitar amp – the Kemper Kabinet and Kemper Kone replacemen­t speaker. The Kabinet and Kone offer guitarists the choice of 19 different speaker imprints, for use with Kemper Profiler PowerRack and PowerHead amps.

The Kabinet combines the Kone loudspeake­r and Kemper-developed speaker tone mining technology, making it possible to digitally “imprint” various speaker characteri­stics onto one single cabinet. The Kone, meanwhile, is a 12-inch speaker designed in conjunctio­n with Celestion, and features a full-range sound that “carries a distinct guitar speaker character.” There are also Sweetening and Directivit­y parameters for detailed adjustment.¤

The 19 imprints offer classic speaker sounds from Celestion and other brands, with the potential for more imprints included in future software updates. The Kabinet can be driven by a Profiler PowerHead or PowerRack, as well as via an external power amp. In the latter configurat­ion, two Kabinets can be driven in stereo. Additional­ly, the Kone is available as a replacemen­t speaker for existing guitar cabinets, as a single unit and two- and four-speaker sets for two-by-12 and four-by-12 cabs.
