** January, 2026

At ISE 2026, Alcons Audio will once again present its award-winning Pro-Ribbon Immersive Experience, this year centred around the recently introduced Alcons M-series reference monitors. Since their introduction, the MR pro-ribbon monitors have drawn strong reactions from engineers and designers alike, setting a new benchmark in analytical monitoring through exceptional dynamics, resolution and spatial accuracy.

The immersive system design is complemented by Alcons’ established CRMS cinema reference systems, underlining the company’s “one-reference: one-experience” philosophy across professional and high-end residential applications.

Exhibiting at booth G500 in Hall 7, Alcons will also showcase the latest additions to its loudspeaker portfolio. Among these is the GR20, the first model in the new G-series of high-performance generic point-source solutions. Designed for both portable and permanent use, the GR20 combines a proprietary RBN602rs 6” pro-ribbon driver with two custom-designed 10” Neodymium mid-bass woofers in a vertically symmetrical clamshell configuration. Featuring Alcons’ Active Coil™ technology, the woofers deliver exceptionally low-distortion low-frequency performance that seamlessly matches the pro-ribbon’s mid- and high-frequency clarity.

Also joining the G-series is the GB181, a dedicated low-frequency extension for G-series full-range systems, while remaining fully compatible with any Alcons pro-ribbon loudspeaker. The front-loaded GB181 delivers highly accurate bass and sub-bass reproduction with maximum output and minimal distortion, achieved through a new-generation 18” long-excursion transducer with a large dual 4.5” voice-coil Neodymium motor. The Flow-Vent™ port design further increases output while reducing port compression. Flexible deployment options include ground-stacked, pole-mounted and cardioid configurations, offering effective rearward low-frequency rejection.

In the Pro-Ribbon Immersive Experience demonstration room, all three M-series reference monitor models are featured in a 9.X.6 configuration, optimized by Walter Fortmüller of Zenzaru Design and Optimization. Processing is handled by the new Trinnov Altitude CI, with a fully AES3 digital signal chain driving more than 30 channels of Alcons Director and Sentinel amplified loudspeaker controllers. Low-frequency reproduction is provided by sealed CRMS-LFE18sl v2 large-format reference subwoofers using cascaded bass management.

Visuals are delivered by a Sony VPL-GTZ380 10,000-lumen 4K laser projector, combined with a DreamScreen Studio X1 CinemaScope acoustically transparent screen.

Tom Back, Managing Director of Alcons Audio, comments: “Our sound systems need to be experienced to truly understand the difference. Ever since our first ISE in 2003, the show has been a key platform to demonstrate our reference solutions for both the professional as well as the residential market.”

Hourly demonstrations will take place throughout the show, February 3–6 at Fira de Barcelona.
