Stairville LED PAR 56 black 151 LEDs RGB features a classic PAR can design and offers a rich colour mix of red, green, and blue with an exceptionally wide area of illumination, all at a sensationally affordable price. In terms of size, the Par 56's housing offers a good middle ground between Par 36 and Par 64 spotlights, and this tried-and-tested model is also easy to operate. Unlike spots with a split-yoke bracket, which are suitable for floor mounting, the PAR 56 is designed to project light from walls, trusses, or stands onto small stages, dance floors, or bar areas. Robustly built and with a colour filter frame included in the scope of delivery, it is certainly well worth considering.
The desired operating mode can be set using the dip switches at the back of the Stairville LED PAR 56. This simple, menu-free operation gives users the choice between automatic colour changes, fades with adjustable fade time, a sound-to-light mode that is perfect for parties, and DMX operation on five channels via an optional lighting controller. Whichever effect is selected, however, the colours will flood the room with a 45° wide beam angle. The power consumption of the fanless spotlight is 16W, with the mains cable permanently connected to the metal housing. Three-pin DMX cables, available as accessories, can be connected to the input and output under the dip switches as required, so that colour mixes can be created with the unit as the master/slave or with a small lighting console, just like the professionals.
Those who are new to lighting design can use the Stairville LED PAR 56 spotlight to create sweeping colour effects for small locations such as restaurants. Bar owners looking for an attractively priced lighting setup can create the desired ambience with the device's sound-to-light mode, and the fanless design ensures near-silent colour mixing in DMX mode, which is ideal for small theatre performances. The unit's robust metal housing also makes it perfect for house parties, live performances, and taking on the road. With the hard-wired mains cable, it ensures reliable operation and, thanks to its DMX connections, puts a wide range of colour mixing options at the user's fingertips.
Since it was introduced in 1994, Thomann's in-house brand Stairville has been a permanent fixture in the store's product range. The brand primarily focuses on the field of stage lighting in general, and its products include spotlights, moving lights, and theatre lighting as well as smoke machines, electronic control systems, and every other accessory you can think of. Thomann constantly has around 1,600 Stairville products on offer, and the figures speak for themselves: Statistically, one in every fifteen Thomann customers owns at least one Stairville product. Incidentally, the name "Stairville" is also a catchy English translation of "Treppendorf", the town that Thomann calls home.
Anyone looking to create a multi-spot setup can easily and affordably install up to five PAR 56s on the Stairville LED Power & DMX Bar, which helpfully supplies power to all connected spots from a single source. A setup of this kind can enable the lighting of the back and sidedrops of a small stage, and what is more, the various output colours of the spot groups can be controlled and assigned different DMX start addresses with the Stairville DDC-12 LCD DMX controller. Those looking to use multiple PAR 56 spotlights with a lighting console can easily connect them using the Stairville PDC3CC DMX Cable 1.0m 3 pin and, to ensure that this works smoothly, a Stairville XLR 3-pin DMX end plug should be inserted into the output of the last spotlight.
