2. Astera AX2 PixelBar
Astera has launched its new AX2 PixelBar product - a quality linear wash fixture with wireless control, onboard battery, individually addressable LEDs, ultra-high colour rendering, digital colour calibration and a 21º beam. As with all Astera products, the AX2 is wirelessly controlled, robustly engineered, and comes complete with a range of rigging tools to provide solutions for multiple lighting applications and sectors. The AX2 PixelBar is a perfect extension of the Astera AX range which includes LightDrops and LED PARs. It is currently available in two versions, a one-metre fixture with 16 10W LEDs and 50cm fixture with eight 10W LEDs. Premium optics focus the lightsources, and superior colour mixing and homogeneity ensure a super-smooth even wash of light across its entire path. Utilising Astera’s acclaimed Titan LED light engine, the AX2 features a high CRI and TCLI and can produce a refined range of perfect colour temperatures from 1,750 to 20,000K. The quick connect system for attaching two or more units is designed to maintain a consistent pixel pitch between conjoined fixtures, and the feet can be loosened to assist in angling a row of AX2s uniformly along its entire length. They can be controlled via the AsteraApp and inbuilt Lumen Radio wireless CRMX, in addition to a physical five-pin XLR socket and Powercon in / out connectors for running a wired option, making it extremely straightforward to daisy-chain AX2s. www.astera-led.com
3. Bose Professional AMM Multipurpose Loudspeaker
The AMM multipurpose loudspeaker line, comprises of two full-range loudspeakers - the AMM108 and AMM112 - and a companion subwoofer - the AMS115. Featuring a coaxial two-way design, AMM loudspeakers can be deployed as mains, monitors, fills or delays in temporary setups or permanent installations. Designed for peak flexibility, AMM108 and AMM112loudspeakers can be deployed with a specific role in a system or used in multiple roles within the same system. Consistent voicing with the existing Bose AM array module line and Bose AMU utility loudspeaker line means system designers and installers can easily mix and match models from all three lines, saving time during system configuration. Both the AMM108 and AMM112 feature a distinct advantage over other point-and-shoot loudspeaker designs: the new, proprietary Bose Beamwidth Matching Waveguide. This waveguide ensures signature Bose sound quality, delivering consistent frequency response, clarity and projection across the coverage area. Providing low-frequency extension down to 35 Hz and 130 dB peak output, the companion AMS115 subwoofer features a 15-inch neodymium transducer, lightweight enclosure and integrated M20 threaded pole mount, making it ideal for use in a variety of applications. www.pro.bose.com/AMLine
4. CHAUVET Ovation Rêve E-3
The new Ovation Rêve E-3, is a next generation ellipsoidal that creates an unlimited array of vivid colours, as well as variable whites. Incorporating advanced LED technology, the versatile fixture allows theatres, broadcast studios, houses of worship and other users to get more for their lighting investment by serving as both a variable white and colour rendering unit. The Ovation Rêve E-3 performs this double duty without sacrificing brightness or performance. When creating whites with a 95+ CRI and high TM-30 RF, it delivers a level of brightness equal to that of a 750-1,000W incandescent fixture. It also features a linear CCT adjustment with +/- Green to match other sources light sources in a rig, and colour temperature presets from 2,800K to 8,000K with high CRI and CQS. Brightness levels are even greater when the Rêve E-3 is creating realistic colours, ranging from soft pastels to bold primaries, with its RGBAM LED engine. Discrete in its operation, the ellipsoidal is virtually silent, making it well suited for applications where ultra-quiet operation is valued. Selectable fan speeds make it possible to eliminate even the faintest sounds completely, while the fixture’s adjustable PWM ensures flicker operation on-camera. www.chauvetprofessional.com
