Cohesion launched two new fill speakers, completing the lineup for the CF Series.
The newly announced products, CF28 and CF14, joined the previously launched CF24 and CF10. These speakers in four efficient form factors have been engineered with an emphasis on application flexibility. Each is a passive product requiring a single amplifier channel.
CF Series speakers provide solutions to supplement sound reinforcement for a wide range of live sound applications, such as large-scale productions and corporate keynotes, as well as permanent installations in venues including theatres, performing arts centres, and houses of worship.
“We’re excited that the CF Series is now complete and available for rental applications and aspirational installations,” said Managing Director of Cohesion Jeff Rocha. “We come from a touring lineage, but now we’re covering a wider range of special events and. distributed events requiring a larger selection of products that offer unique and new capabilities.”
“We already had a comprehensive offering of what I consider to be the primary sound reinforcement systems for most spaces, but we had a limited range of options to supplement those systems to complete a design,” added Rocha. “The CF Series now gives us a full toolbox of amazing products that allow us to complete solutions for those applications.”
Each CF Series speaker balances its size, output, bandwidth, and mechanical utility to define a unique architecture, which resolves in a purpose-built catalog that offers versatility within the fewest number of products. Simplified design and implementation are intentional results, as Rocha explained: “Every product has an obvious role and is capable of doing things the others wouldn’t.”
The CF24, the smallest product in the CF Series, exemplifies this process. Designed to be installed flush in the depth of a wall or the height of a stair riser, it is lightweight, portable, and adaptable for a wide variety of novel applications. The CF24 was engineered to achieve smooth coverage and surprising output with enough low end for vocals and acoustic instruments to sound natural.
On the other end of the spectrum lies the three-way CF28, the largest format in the CF Series, featuring two 8” drivers and a central, rotatable horn. The CF28 has the output of a small-format line array but with directivity, dimensions, and handling characteristics of a front-fill speaker.
The CF14 and the CF10 parallel the sonic signature of Cohesion’s venerable stage monitor, the CM14. Both models offer controlled directivity with a rotatable horn. Integrated mounting solutions present quick and reliable wall or pole attachment, along with yoke or U-bracket options to suit any space.
While the CF14 slightly alters the enclosure design of the CM14 for flexibility, the CF10 shrinks this topology for a 10″ transducer. The high-frequency component in the CF14 and CF10 is the same, contributing to consistent voicing across a system using these speakers and other Cohesion products.
Gino Pellicano, Lead Application Engineer of Integration, commented: “The CF Series leads the market in terms of loudness per dollar spent, delivering unparalleled performance that seamlessly integrates into tight architectural constraints. It’s the clear winner in these categories, offering an unbeatable combination of quality and value.”
“The CF Series offers a tremendous expression of efficiency and bandwidth in small, lightweight packages. They provide well-defined coverage and consistent response while withstanding the rigors of the road and navigating the challenges associated with permanent installations,” said Rocha. “We develop products like the CF family for the best production professionals in the world, and we take that responsibility seriously. We owe it to them.”
The full Cohesion CF Series are available for rental and integration projects exclusively through Clair Global.
