Despite being the brightest 1200 W fixture in its class, the MAC TW1 is also exceptionally quiet. Less than 40dBA. This is achievable through its cold-light reflector technology and a new, patent-pending silent cooling design, which traps the heat and silently dissipates it away from the back of the fixture. Heat management Convection cooling through a magnesium shell ensures the fixture has an extremely quiet operating noise level while also directing heat away from the stage or set. The MAC TW1 operates in three modes Normal, Studio and Silent. Selectable from your lighting desk, Silent mode...
