The brand new Sennheiser EW DX systems are starting to arrive in Canada. We received this demo rack right from Germany this week, with more units in transit.

These units were a breeze to set up right out the case. The new “E ink” display shows the transmitter name even when the batteries are out. No need for label tape anymore.
The transmitters also feature 134 dB of dynamic range, which will cover pretty much any high volume input source.
Our current favourite feature is being able to know the exact run time for the transmitters. A down to the minute time is displayed on both the transmitter and the receiver when running on the lithium battery packs. 12 hour estimated run time using lithium.

Give us a call at 519-740-9869 or send us an email to set up a demo time.

Sennheiser EW DX

The past few weeks have seen installs in a variety of the regions high school’s with upgrades to lighting systems.  Not just in the dedicated theatre spaces but also in the classrooms.
We spec and install all different brands of fixtures, picking and choosing the best units from the lines. One of the recent winners in LED moving heads has been the AMDJ Focus spot 4Z. This is a 200 watt LED engine with gobos, prisms, and dichroic colour wheels. These light weight moving heads are extremely fast and offer fantastic performance at this price point. 4 of these LED moving heads were installed on the FOH lighting pipes allowing designs that are extremely dynamic with fast movement. One of the other benefits is now being able to have a focusable spot without needing a lift or ladder to be adjusted.

New at the shop is the Prolights LED leeko family.

EclProfile FS is a high-output, full-spectrum LED, RGB Lime Leeko that has brilliant saturated colours and a temperature adjustable white. Perfect for theatre and video work.
The Ecl Profile CT+ is a 6 colour  (red, green, blue, royal blue, mint, pc amber) array that offers a massive amount of adjustability and matching to existing gel colours.
When your design is required to match with existing conventional gel fixtures, you can really nail the look of your favourite Rosco Tokyo Blue. This makes adding LEDs into an existing rig that much easier.
These units also take industry standard lenses and accessories. Gobos are B size and take standard leeko gel frames.

We have added several of the FS units to our rental and demo inventory as we transition away from conventional halogen lighting. Photos don’t show how beautiful these fixtures perform.
Recently 8 of the CT+ units were added to a local video production studio with an assortment of lenses and accessories.
Stop by the shop to see these or take them out for you next production.

The introduction of the Allen and Heath SQ consoles has been welcomed with open arms at Angus Audio. Here are a few photos of a recent order of SQ consoles that were brought in for a variety of clients. These versatile consoles are being used in many different rolls.

The two SQ7 consoles are being paired with the GX4816 digital head for a full 48 channel FOH and Monitor set up.
This system will be rolled out to the client with an analog split snake and new ECM road cases. It will be ready for its first show when it leaves our shop in Cambridge next week.

The SQ5 is being packaged into a flyable a touring rig with a 24 channel digital head, while the other consoles are slated for permanent installs in high schools and colleges.

The SQ6 is our console of choice for rentals. It’s onboard channel count linked with a 16 channel digital heads gives us 40 channels in a package that can be carried in a small car. Perfect for theatre but small enough for tight spaces at FOH.
