<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Ross,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There are several offerings from a wide range of manufacturers out there.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would look at ETC, and Chauvet Pro as my primary sources.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For 575w equivalents, you have a lot of options. If you’re replacing 575w Source 4s, you might not need the Series 3 or the Reve E3 below.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also look at what you’ll be pairing them with. It will be helpful if there are Fresnels and Pars with the same color systems, from the same manufacturer.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As others have said, pay attention to TM-30 scores. Keep in-mind that TM-30 is relevant only when you’re creating White Light (like 3200k, or 5600k). I’d start with the color temperatures built into the fixture.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Rf is is fidelity (similar to, but more accurate than CRI), a score above 85 is pretty good, and above 90 is considered very good. Rg is Gamut (how saturated the colors are), I like to have a score of between 100-110, so that I am slightly
oversaturated.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Source V LED (I think they call it Source five)<o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">Thank you guys for your responce. Right after I sent the orginal email I went back to the ETC website & found the page I needed. Right now I am just looking at the different options that are
out their. The bulk of the lighting package is Blizzard brand, so I would like to stay with them if possible. Sometime it nice to look at other brands to see who has the best stuff.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

For ETC, take a look at the Source4WRD, an LED retrofit for the<br>
incandescent Source Fours. They make white and RGB versions. (I have a<br>
bunch of the white LED Source4WRD Series 2 models, and they are very<br>
punchy and look very good on old Source Fours.)<br>
<br>
Also, the ColorSource V is another ETC alternative for Source<br>
Four-style profiles. Uses the same lenses, too.<br>

Hello all,<br>
<br>
In one of the theatre I work, the owners are looking at trying to get some grants for tech upgrades. They have some older Source 4s that I would like to find the LED version. Looking at the ETC website, I don't see a LED version of a Source 4. Is it under
a different name, or do I need to look at other options?<br>
<br>
For all I know, I am using the wrong search terms.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thank you all for putting up with me<br>
<br>
Ross<br>
