When we left Las Vegas after InfoComm 2012, we left 8 pairs of the new KF740 Zero Degree Adapters with our friends at H. A. S. Productions. They’re getting used pretty much constantly, but this photo really caught our eye.

This is a 3 Doors Down show held July 4, 2012 at the Fremont Street Experience, which is kind of like a street, except it’s covered with a giant roof and there aren’t any cars. It is, in fact, Fremont Street or what used to be Fremont Street, but it’s, well…maybe you better go to Las Vegas and check it out for yourself.

Official, final products are now in stock.

Produced in the USA, the prototypes went immediately to Frankfurt, Germany for use in our 16-module array hung at Prolight + Sound. From there, they flew to Australia, where Production Audio Services used them at Christian festivals Easterfest and PlanetShakers.

From Australia, they flew to Dallas, TX, USA, where Tim and Chad “It’s a Tank” Cain from Gemini LSV used them at EdgeFest (shown), the massive alternative rock festival that’s the unofficial start of the summer music season.

Tired yet? From Dallas, the prototype adapters flew to Mumbai, India. For the Palm India show, EAW’s new…
