Not all Camplifiers can handle 4ohms, but I'm told they'll modify yours if you like. Check your manual.
No powered Kabinet was announced that I'm aware of.
I don't have a Camplifier just yet. I wanted to know which Camplifier to get if I decide to go this route (unpowered Kab + non-Kemper add-on amp).

Will a Kabinet purchased from the US Kemper Store ship immediately?
-
I haven't visited this forum in a few weeks since work has been so busy... has there been a release date of a powered Kemper Kabinet?
EDIT: I have the Stage so I was thinking of waiting for the powered Kab… but what cheap power amp would work well with the Kab? Kab + external power amp messes up my form factor, but maybe I can just fasten down the power amp somewhere on the Kab loll

I already have my tracking number, scheduled to arrive on Friday

S#%t. I'm in CO and was going to buy one of these pre-Corona. Now I need to make sure I'll still be employed/not taking pay cut before "luxury" items. Boo. Hiss.

Am I just an idiot and missing something? I don't see the Kabinet available yet in the US Kemper Store?

Using the baked in IRs sound fine with the F12-X200s. It does sound awful with Imprints. Somewhat disappointed, but my older Camplifier360 won't work with the Kone's impedance anyway.
Why disappointed?
The Kone engine does not work with another speaker, as announced.
For all that want to use an existing active Cabinet for running the Kone: check with the manufacturer for 4 Ohm again, since most solid state amps can handle 4 Ohm.

I don't think this is that exceptional.
It's probably the way most people that use a guitar cab at home or without a PA use their Direct Amp Profiles. Unless i'm missing something here.
Most of the profile sellers distribute "direct amp" profiles, rarely merged.Most commercial profiles come with a cabinet for sure, as they are aimed for live use as well.
For enabling the Imprints, chose an arbitrary cabinet preset and lock it. Done.

Look forward to the new speakers being available through the Oceania Kemper store. ?

First gen Camplifiers aren't, only 8 ohms. Kris, I really don't want to have to use 4 speakers to drive my KPA in 8 ohm stereo. As I said the Celestion F12-X200 sounds great with IRs, so I guess it's my choice not to use all the new features. Just like my choice to use real drive pedals out front(still a weakness). Still great gear, no worries.
Stay healthy and sane!!

Are Kemper imprints available in the latest beta or in a new comercial KAOS release?

Kemper Imprints (and the other global Kone features) are included in Public Beta OS 7.2.0

Apologies if this has been asked already:
Can you fit the Kone into a powered speaker cab? I'm currently using 2 RedSound LG12 powered cabs in stereo, and it would be great if I can swap the speakers to Kones.
... (Misunderstood question)

Kabinet on the way, stoked!

This might have been covered already, but how can the I/O on the back be used? Stereo?

Guessing you connect your kemper to IN and connect another cable from the OUT to another Kabinet for stereo.

It's a series output jack to hook up another Kabinet for 8ohms mono. I'm actually curious how they wired it up, I'm not aware of any diagram that allows you to have an (optional) series out.

looks like Kabinet is sold out in the US store

As CK wrote, check with Mirko the power section can handle a 4 ohm speaker.
- Will there be any tonal difference between the Camplifier and the Kemper on-board amp?
These amps (both) are quite linear, you should not hear any meaningful difference.
- And last, but I guess hard to answer unless you're Christoph Kemper... do we know when the powered Kabinet will be ready?
... As you wrote

I'd bot advise about cheap amps, since you are using first-class hw. Anyway, if you are on FB get in touch with Francesco Ferrari (Blu Geniale). He's been building power amps for the KPAs since years. They are very nice looking too
how can the I/O on the back be used? Stereo?
Certainly not for stereo, since the signal feeding the first cab is anyway mono.
You might get a larger sound front tho -
