This is an "out there" suggestion, even for me, but if you can't replace "in strategically chosen groups," consider adding a cut of R97, 397, or 398 to the 575W fixtures if they are on the same dimmer as 375W fixtures. If not on the same dimmer, you might want to have a supply of R3204 and R3208 for the higher wattage fixtures run at a lower level, to counteract amber-drift....One problem waiting for you is it's hard to mix the two wattages. You'll definitely want to replace in strategically chosen groups. Replacing one at a time will make your wash really blotchy.
It would depend on how far your hang positions are from your stage, and how many fixtures are in your inventory. if your fixtures are lower than 20' above the deck and less than 25' horizontally, I would say keep the 375w. but if you are throwing farther than that, I would bump to the 575w as budget allows.
quarter- Read my post again and you'll see that I too agree with gaff...from a Technician standpoint.
Of course, the bulk of my inventory is Colortran 20/30/40's which run FEL's. that's a whole other story....
