So, I've been given the opportunity to purchase either:
A) NEW Source Four PARs for $189.40ea
or
B) USED Opti PARs for $85.00ea
If you were in my shoes, which would you choose? I'm on a tight budget (you can see the thread I started asking for fundraising ideas) so $85 is much more attractive than $190. On the other hand, I've never been much of a fan of American DJ/Elation, I've found most of their equipment is cheaply made.
What would you do? How do the two lights compare? I've heard a lot of good things about the Source Four PARs but have never heard of the Opti PARs before.
