Until recently, D.T.S. has been known as a high volume manufacturer of branded and OEM lighting products combining excellent build quality, performance and reliability at an affordable price. However, as a result of long-term investment in state-of-the-art R&D and manufacturing facilities in Italy, the company has developed a new generation of advanced products aimed at the professional end of the entertainment market.
The new distribution deal will exploit A.C. Lighting's position as a leading one-stop supplier of cutting-edge entertainment technologies to the most demanding users in all areas of professional and architectural lighting applications. The deal covers D.T.S. LED, moving light and lantern product ranges and sees D.T.S. join an impressive array of lighting, audio and associated technology brands stocked by A.C. Lighting.
Key to the latest D.T.S. product offering is the Delta range of IP65 LED moving lights, which features a choice of RGB full colour LED or TriLED technology, motorised or non-motorised movement and IP65 protection as standard. The Full Colour variant comprises 40 full colour (not separate RGB) LEDs - eliminating the frustrating colour separation shadows normally synonymous with LED fixtures.
The A.C. Lighting stand at PLASA will also feature the new D.T.S. XR8 and XR9 spot and wash moving light projector ranges. The models are an evolution of the best-selling XR7 range, radically updated with distinct improvements in operating features.
Franco Zaghini, vice-president of Sales for D.T.S. commented: "We're delighted to appoint A.C. Lighting as the sole UK distributor for D.T.S. show products. A.C. is a leading supplier of new technologies to users at the pro end of the entertainment lighting market, so its client base is the perfect audience for our innovative new generation of LED and PAR products. The level of technical consulting and service backup they provide to users is also second to none, which is vital to ensure the success of our new products."
