Prolight+Sound 2017 has been and gone. During the event, from 4–7 April, all eyes in the music industry turned to Frankfurt.
 
Our thanks go to all visitors to our stand – including over 500 trade visitors!
The trade show was a never-ending stream of pleasant encounters and animated discussions with customers, business partners, suppliers and interested amateurs.
As ever, this annual event is enormously important for us, and we and our team are always happy to attend in Frankfurt every spring. This time was our 38th in succession!
The orders and sales we make at our stand confirm our loyalty to the event, and contribute to our well-filled order books.

We displayed 250 items that made up a representative selection from our world of cables and cable products – but were only a fraction of our full product range!
 
Visitors were particularly interested in the CATLink Series, the Titanium microphone cable and our fibre optic solutions with SmartBeam MINI and SmartBeam OCTO connectors. Once again, clear confirmation that we’re on the right track with our innovative products!

The quality of our products and the satisfaction of our customers are paramount for us. By setting ourselves these high standards, we have established an outstanding national and international reputation as the producer of high-quality cables for the MI industry.
 
Modern production methods, high-performance production equipment and technological expertise guarantee the durability and long service lives of all our products.
 
We have been able to keep the prices of our products stable for the past two years. However, across-the-board cost adjustments and increased commodity prices have now forced us to increase the prices of our products up to 5% from 1 July 2017.
 
The new Price List will also be available from July 2017.

We guarantee that our quality products will continue to meet the highest standards and requirements now and in the future.
 
Framework agreements received before 30 June 2017 as well as our Fiber Optic cable products will not be affected by the price increase.

A true innovator, a pioneer of electronic music – that’s Jean-Michel Jarre. Everyone, absolutely everyone, is familiar with “Oxygène”, Jarre’s million-selling album from 1976. The megahit was the launchpad for Jarré’s unparalleled international career. Have a listen. 
 
He followed in the footsteps of his father, a composer, and studied at the Paris Conservatoire. After “Oxygène”, Jarre’s works “Équinoxe” and “Magnetic Fields” likewise became classics of their genre. His later works were also enormously popular. Jarre has three entries in the Guinness Book of Records, was the first western artist to be invited to perform in Communist China, and performed a concert at the Pyramids of Gizeh at the turn of the new millennium. He celebrated the 40th anniversary of “Oxygène” by releasing a trilogy box set.
 
Now Jean-Michel Jarre is part of the KLOTZ Family, using our cables in his studio. We’re delighted at the news!

Customers asked us for a solution to quickly tell apart e.g. microphone cables from 110 ohms digital audio cables. So we introduced a colour coding for our new premade DMX and AES/EBU cables.
