CLIFF will once again be exhibiting at the NAMM exhibition in Anaheim, California, in January 2012. NAMM, the USA based National Association of Music Merchants is a not-for-profit association that unifies, leads and strengthens the $17 billion global music products industry. The annual exhibition showcases the newest innovations in musical products, recording technology and sound and lighting equipment. NAMM 2012 anticipates more than 1400 exhibitors and an attendance of over 85,000 visitors from some 100 Countries.

Already used in volume by many major global music brands, Cliff will be displaying their extended range of 3.5mm audio jack plugs and sockets including stereo, mono and 4 pole variants, the industry compatible Cliffcon S series of loudspeaker plugs and sockets and the ZC Series of multi-pole miniature plugs and sockets.

For manufacturers of sound desks and control systems Cliff will be showing an extended range of slider, encoder and slim-line control knobs including the recently introduced translucent versions for internally illuminated encoder applications.

“We have some very exciting new products in the pipeline and we invite visitors to the show to come and talk to us about our soon to be released conductive slider knobs and airtight XLRs for speaker applications” plus our range of SMD DC Sockets. Comments Bruce Yeremian , Cliff Inc. Sales Manager; “The music industry is our major market and we have components designed into many leading audio manufacturers. The NAMM show is a great shop window for us and an opportunity for us to demonstrate Cliff products into such an important market”.

Cliff will be displaying an extended range of DC connectors from last year’s release of DC10L dual gauge dc sockets which accept 2.1mm & 2.5mm plugs. Also on display is our well known range of jack plugs, jack sockets, the “combi-Jack” (Jack+XLR connector socket which will accept both ¼” jack and 3 pin XLR plugs), the “stack-jack” space saving socket which allows greater component density on the PCB and XLR and RCA Phono connectors. Other popular components to be shown by Cliff include terminal binding posts for loudspeakers, control knobs and foot pedals. A standard range of foot pedals is available and custom models may be produced on request to include multi way LED’s and application specific switching and connection.

Cliff manufactures audio and power connectors, test leads and accessories, general industrial connectors, foot pedals, hand tools, production aids, lighting connectors, motors and fans. Cliff can also provide a wide range of leads including audio, instrument and power.
