Scott Davies, general manager of American Audio said: "Because earpads take a lot of abuse, they typically wear out while the headphone itself is still in perfectly good condition.

They can simply replace the earpads whenever needed - at a much lower cost than buying new headphones."
The HP-500 Headphones come with one extra set of earpads as part of the package and include a headphone bag for storage and transport. Features include a flexible housing design that provides for either double or single ear monitoring and also allows the headphones to be folded

Since the inception of the grandMA series, MA Lighting has given the option to programmers of modifying or even creating new fixture profiles directly from the desk. However, until now, there has never really been any common place for programmers to share information with the result that operators across the world may well be repeating the same programming processes on the same desks for the same units.
To cut down on wasted time and energy MA have developed a new website (address below), where users can be
