NAMM 2007 Assistance Audio will be displaying at booth # 1651. We will have samples of CIARE speakers, BMS drivers. Also CODA AP25/PW215A and the Assistance Audio CIARE/BMS hybrid coaxial to listen to. Representatives from the CIARE factory will be in attendance. Price News Effective January 1st, 2007 there will be a slight price increase in Assistance Audio goods to offset the increasing costs of importing (mostly fuel related), insurance, and office costs.

CIARE News CIARE is now shipping a new model of neodymium speakers. The NDH series is now on CIARE's web site under 2006. We have a few models in stock and will be getting more soon. The line will be on display at the 2007 NAMM show. CIARE will also be showing a new line of 1" and 1.4" drivers at NAMM 2007.

BMS News BMS is now shipping the 4594 ND. It has the same diaphragms, and power handling as the 4592, but with a 1.4" exit instead of 2". The 4594 has a larger magnet on the HF portion, which has higher HF sensitivity, and is designed to have better HF dispersion. It is also slightly smaller in depth, and lighter.

DDS News We now have new horns to go with the 4594. It is a spherical horn similar to the ENG series, but much bigger. 24" in diameter. Model # DDS SW 1.4-90 LF and cost is $239.00. Effective immediately (Dec. 1, 2006), DDS pieces sold without drivers will be priced slightly higher. Check out our DDS Horns page for more info.
