Stairville CLB2.4 Compact LED Par System

A performing group I represent required some stage lighting for the odd DIY gig to earn some extra cash on the side.

Originally, it was customary to lob the Stairville LED Par 56 trees in the boot of the car but this was a pain in the butt to be honest, their bulky, sharp-edged features meant they were tearing the lining in the roof of the car and took up too much space. So, a plan was formulated to replace them with the new 'compact' style LED cans that are now on the market.

Thomann is always my first choice seller to buy from of course. Best customer service, best prices, best... well everything. There's no faulting the company. Get your music friends on this website now if they haven't done already!

I was torn between buying these and the Stairville TRI LEDs also for sale but at a higher asking price. We were on a budget at the time and ultimately decided to take the plunged as on the face of it all these lights did exactly what we needed them for.

Very impressed on the whole. Lets get the obvious stuff out the way first - yes they're compact and easy to set up, that's why you're considering buying them, right? Also lightweight, fairly durable and easy to operate.

They are not quite as bright as standard LED par cans in my opinion and the spread angle is a little narrower too. I've not owned them for long so they've not had sufficient time to develop a fault yet. Thomann's customer service is great so I'm not worried about when that happens, however.

I like reading the reviews before I purchase things, so I hope I've said something useful that helps others out. To put it into perspective for those trying to work out how suitable these lights are for their needs, I purchased these for use in small clubs, pubs and back rooms and they do the job perfectly. I have also used them on a festival stage, about 10m wide, 5m deep but they weren't so good. So, do not buy these if you're planning on using them for anything other than 'little' gigs.

Rated as 5-star as they are excellent value. Would recommend to first-time buyers and the starting-out musician.

I'm hoping to buy the TRI LEDs real soon to compare and will review those too. Ciao!

We are using this light as an acoustic trio. It's very simple and also included bag is very good quality. There's a good option if you buy another light that you can marge it so they both lights the same program.

cons: mic is to sensitive for automatic light, we are not playing too loud, but you can't put program on automatic because its too sensitive and its blinking too much

maybe more programs, there is only 2 programs with soft light

pros: light, not warm, good bag, simple, work, can marge with other lights
