D.T.S. Lighting’s MAX L, like the company’s MAX, offers users four different types of projection with a single moving head: Beam, Spot, Wash, and Studio. Although both fixtures make use of Philips’ MSD Platinum 16R 330W (16K lumen) light source and share many other characteristics, the MAX L offers a few differences in terms of beam angles and optical specs, and the company touts the beam, in studio mode, as being “evenly diffused as never before.”
More details from D.T.S. Lighting (www.dts-lighting.com):
MAX L is a brand new model in the D.T.S. high-power compact moving heads line.
MAX L features the same innovative technology of MAX, and addresses a range of top level applications: from concerts to special events; from television studios to theatres.
MAX L light output is comparable to the most powerful fixtures.
MAX L features a special optical group with wide excursion motorized zoom that for the first time allows 4 different types of projection in a single moving head: ‘Beam’, ‘Spot’, ‘Wash’, and ‘Studio’.
No need to stock a whole range of lights: MAX L does it all.
In fact, MAX L wide excursion motorized zoom allows any application from long-throw projections to large wall washing.
Beam opening is: 1.7° ‘Beam’ projection; 1.7° – 37° ‘Spot’ projection; 10° – 60° ‘Wash’ projection.
But MAX L introduces also the ‘Studio’ projection (3° – 40°), selectable via DMX; thanks to it, MAX L projects a beam so uniform and evenly diffused as never before.
Also, MAX L is very compact and light weight, the perfect moving head for rental companies who want a quick and easy to install unit.
