I'm evaluating whether or not to replace our current followspots. We're running 2 Lycian SuperArc 400 (standard throw) 1266's. They run off of 400W HTI lamps and never have the right oomph to cut through a wash. From our booth, the direct through to the pit is 90'. and upstage is 140'.
Any good recommendations on followspots that can cut through a wash at that distance? The SuperArc 1266 is more of a club spot, and is not ideal (IMHO) at this throw distance. Roadshows strongly dislike my spots, and they are 17 years old.
Lycian makes a long throw version (1267) which looks like it has a different optics kit on it. Retrofit vs. replace?
Thoughts?
