[SML] LED Houselight options

As many of you know, one of the Alley Theatre's spaces was completely
submerged.  One of the advantages of that is that I now have the
opportunity to rework a lot of our systems.

First on the agenda are Houselights.  We had some old 4.5" fresnels
and some can lights for the slight overhang over the last row of
seats.  We're looking at shifting all of them to LED sources.  [We had
done so in our larger space and like the results.]

Ideally, we're looking for a WW/CW solution. [I don't think we'll need
RGBW control, though I'm open to ideas that include it if the price is
right.] We're also looking for small fixtures.  We've got some
architectural issues to work around, but I don't want to bore you all
with the specifics.  Obviously, DMX controlled. Grid is about 14'-0"
above stage floor, with audience risers.

What are people using/recommending?  We used SLPar 155 Zooms for
houselights in the larger space, but I don't know if they'll be the
ideal solution for our smaller space.  We had talked about something
like the Rosco Braq Cube, but haven't really seem them in use.

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
