Funktion-One Launches Highly Versatile Evolution 2
Funktion-One introduced its latest product innovations at ISE 2024 in Barcelona, including the extremely versatile, high-performance Evo 2. The latest addition to the Evo Series has evolved from the iconic Res 2, which was one of Funktion-One’s earliest product releases over 25 years ago.
Evo 2 is a medium dispersion, fully horn-loaded, 3-way loudspeaker, which features the latest Funktion-One driver technology and highly refined tuning. Funktion-One will hold short Evo 2 demos every hour on Stand 7G800, starting at 10:25am each day.
Funktion-One Founder Tony Andrews comments: “We’re very excited to introduce the Evo 2 at ISE. We’ve managed to get exceptional performance from a smaller loudspeaker. Greater precision and detail and more consistent directivity. We can’t wait for people to hear it.”
Funktion-One VX M-Beam Wins PLASA Award for Innovation
Funktion-One’s VX M-Beam has been recognised by the PLASA Awards for Innovation. The judges were impressed by the innovative speaker rigging system and how it will enable greater use of VX systems in venues with single-point hangs.
Funktion-One’s VX M-Beam provides an elegant, patented solution for motorised adjustment of the tilt angle of a Vero VX loudspeaker array suspended from a single point while in situ (under load, at trim height). Compared to a fixed beam, which employs the common method of a row of pickup points to achieve different array tilt angles, the VX M-Beam has a single point which can be moved backwards and forwards remotely with an onboard electric motor. US patent granted. European patent pending.
VX M-Beam forms part of the flying system for the Funktion-One Vero VX medium format loudspeaker system. The single pick up point is moveable within the beam, shifting the point’s relationship with the array’s centre of gravity, making up to 20° inclination and 20° declination possible (more than enough for typical use). This enables real time adjustment of overall array angle, saving significant time and vastly improving user convenience.
