Hi Bill, Recussitating an old thread but a search didn't find this anywhere else. What is the standard for the arbor spacers you reference above to raise loading level height? What are they made of? Is there a limit how high you can raise the loading level? My facility has stacks of 2x6s cut...

The FR-36s were $1,085 each direct from StageRight. We ordered 7. They were shipped along with decks, supports, and carts for same so not sure what shipping would be alone.

Does anyone have a recommendation for an AV Company for FOH speaker design in SoCal? We have a center 4-speaker cluster with dull spots along the walls and 1st couple rows. Our district is looking for an upgrade. Thanks!

We bought StageRight FR-36 Fold & Roll choir risers to replace a set of old and beat Tourmasters. The FR-36s are super easy to roll and set up, although do take up a significant footprint. Have you checked out the StageRight Alla Breve? They are pretty compact.

How far is your balcony from downstage center? It's a 30x optical zoom, yes? How tight can you get at full zoom? Which PTZ camera did you get and what zoom do they have? How far are they from your stage?

Thanks for the info, John. We rarely (never) move our cyclorama. How about durability vs. traditional fabrics? My facility is in Whittier and we're closed also. Perhaps when this is over I could check it out if we're still in the market.

I received some samples of Garriets cyc fabrics. Their IFR poly canvas CS (material: Trevira CS) looks and feels like typical cyc fabric, perhaps a little heavier with a coarser weave. They also sent their Projection Opera Creamy White PVC product, usually used for front or rear projection. Is...

I saw something like this when researching front fill solutions for a "dead zone" in the first 5 rows. Didn't get it but pretty nifty!

Interesting convo about Dimmer Doubling. That said, I have Strand CD80SV dimmers and wasn't planning to switch to ETC to utilize Dimmer Doubling.

Anyone seen the new Lycian Superstar 600W LED? Thoughts? They are advertising 200fc (spot) and 48fc (flood) at 100'. Press release here. I've used the Lycian ZOT 12hps and thought they were ugly but extraordinarily bright.

Which fabric? Garriets has a number of options.

We are looking to replace a worn-out white (light natural muslin) cotton cyclorama. I had thought to replace it with an IFR fabric to avoid retreatment. A vendor discouraged me, saying that IFR fabrics had wrinkles that were impossible to remove. Does anyone have experience with an IFR...

Ha! After reviewing ETC's Selador manual I found the following, "You may use a circuit powered through an SCR dimmer, as long as the dimmer is set to unregulated non-dim (switched) operation." (Page 7, Selador Series User Manual.) I'm pretty sure this is how I had originally installed them - and...

I'm pretty set on getting 7 of these for my space as well. What control personality and cell mode do you use? Do you control via DMX or ethernet over ArtNet or sACN?

Is 330 feet still the maximum run for ethernet? Is that the TOTAL combined distance from point to point (console to switch to far-away box boom) or just individual cable length?So I think what I'm hearing is to run CAT5e cable all the way to the electrics (since you can transmit multiple...
