Stairville CLB4 RGB Compact LED Bar 4 Reviews

Stairvile LED bar CLB4

This piece of kit is so good that I'm considering buying a couple more. They are very bright and offer plenty of 'scenes' and programs and sound to light too. I bought the one to see just how good it is and I have to say, for the smaller gigs I've been doing at local beach bars, it's been perfect. I've been using this unit as an 'uplighter' and the colours are so good and bright that people have seen them from the road and stopped to join in the party. Most of the beach bars here in Spain have static lighting, but when I'm playing, I rig this up and the people that arrive stating that they only came down because they saw the lights and thought there MUST be something special going on. When you consider that these people saw them from a distance just goes to show how powerful they are. For my bigger gigs, I intend to buy a couple more and run them via DMX in unison. I can thoroughly recommend these and the bundle deal will save you a fair bit of cash, not to be sniffed at that.

Good Piece of Kit

This is much easier to transport than the longer earlier bar version and works well. However I reserve judgment of the whole packge to see how long the zip on the storage bag lasts. This seems to be the achillies heel on many items of equipment. One piece of advice for safeguarding some longevity of the bag, do not attempt to store the foot pedal control in the zipped side panel of the bag. It places a lot of strain on the zip which is not robust enough to take it as a friend found. It will break!!!

Light it up!

We just bought two of the Stairville CLB4 Compact LED Bar and used them at three gigs. They are installed quickly eithor on two stands or on a traverse, for which two threads are added at the top of the bar.

For such small dimensons the light is really bright. Here we are completley satisfied.

The quality I just rated with four stars, because some parts, for example plugs, differ one from another. This makes it look like we got it repaired by oureselfes, which isn't helpful if you want to sell them again. But for us it is not that important because are going to keep them a long time.

We also liked the fact that it comes with a solid hardcase so you can easily transport it with the other stuff in the car.

Stairville CLB4 Compact LED Bar

This is a great bit of kit which has gone down very well with all of the band. It's lightweight, bright and quick to set up. There is little or no heat output which is a big bonus compared with our Stairville HL-40's which are great but produce a lot of heat. Being LED's these also use a lot less power so they're great if you're running off a generator or only have limited power supply.

The unit seems well made and the included case is perfect for transporting to gigs. The angle adjustment of each individual light is very easy to set up too.

I was hoping that the Stairville Pocket-Master I controller might work with it to save buying the optional foot controller, unfortunately this is not the case.

A fellow bandleader was sold on them after our 1st use and says he's gonna buy 2 straight away!
