Deathride Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 hi just wanted to know how much would 16 colour scrollers and a power supply with 16 par cans to go with ... websites would be nice looking for 3 quotes ( college balls things ) I think there would need to hold about 8 colours and the power leeds ... any feedback would be loved :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryson Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 If you're just roughly costing things, AC have a price list on their site. Always useful. Not sure about 8 colours. Most scrollers I know are 16 or 32. Chroma-Qs are widely acknowledged as being very good value for money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkfold Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 I like ChromaQ's, but you will need to have cable sufficient to reach all the scrollers and then complete the loop back to the power supply. Can get expensive and occasionally, it is better to use two or more powerpacks to run the scrollers than just the one and a ridiculous ammount of cable if the scrollers are on different LX bars. So you may have to factor that into your price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Speak to Stage Electrics - they are stocking the new Apollo scrollers which I'm a bit of a fan off. At the same time I'm sure they'd give you a quote on 64s to go with the scrollers. Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Steve Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 Sorry to bring up an old topic, but the Apollo Scrollers that SLX sell look alot like the £462 set of 4 that Thomann do. I may be getting some in the near future so I'll post my thoughts on them, unless anyone else has used them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayselway Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 I have a set of 8 Chroma-Q Scrollers, never had any trouble, apart from when some bright spark rewired a cable, and shorted one of the psu's!. Only annoying thing with my ones is that on one set, the DMX addy's is done with rotary dials - not a fan to be honest, but hey - does the job!..

Just to let you know its working fine and I've been that impressed with the scrollers from Thomann that I have been slowly increasing the amount I own. I've been using it regularly now since January and it works a treat. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
