I have been doing boxing events for the last few years and would like to upgrade my fixtures...
What I have been using is Martin kryptons, Atomic 3000strobes and technobeams with a few coemar cf7's. We are in a new venue and would like a brighter (lamp)fixture the MSD250 lamps are not cutting It !
Looking at about 30'(9m)throw to ring.
Of course cost is always a issue...anyway has anyone used the Clay Paky Stagescans. I have found a few used in great condition !
Or try the Mac 2000's. Which would be brighter ? Or have more features. Is there anything else I should be looking at??. These fixtures would be for effect lighting only (ring<boxing round #> girl). The ring is lit with 36 ETC pars so looking for a big effect. Since Its not that critical to the event ...how are the Chinese fixtures ..or should I stay away ? We only do a few events a year and wonder if they would last ?
Thanks for any suggestions

Is a 15r lamp as bright as a MSD1200 lamp ???
How about something like this:
