The Martin by HARMAN MAC Encore Wash has been awarded the prestigious 'Lighting Product of the Year 2018' at the recent ABTT Theatre Show in London. It was described by the Association of British Theatre Technicians adjudicating committee as 'a suitable and long overdue alternative to a discontinued tungsten moving head favourite.'

MAC Encore™ is a new family of full-featured, low weight, LED moving heads that deliver levels of light quality and consistent performance never seen before in LED-based stage lighting units. Featuring record breaking whisper-quiet performance, both the MAC Encore Performance and MAC Encore Wash are available in two dedicated colour temperature variants (WRM and CLD) for a wide variety of applications where critical lighting is required.

MAC Encore Wash WRM is an LED-based, replacement for the much-loved, discontinued MAC TW1, offering unparalleled 3000 K warm tungsten emulation that truly challenges the output quality of a real incandescent light source, and doubles as a modern replacement for generic fixtures like tungsten based Fresnel fixtures.

MAC Encore Wash CLD is an LED-based alternative to the MAC Viper Wash DX. The feature-packed soft edge moving head offers unparalleled 6000 K crisp, neutral daylight, and doubles as a modern replacement for generic fixtures like HMI-based Fresnel fixtures.

On hand to pick up the award were Ian Cullen, Rob Beamer and Lauren Drinkwater from Sound Technology Ltd., the UK distributors for Martin by HARMAN.
