"We've been looking for an excuse to buy Victors for a couple of years," says Chuck Spector, Upstaging's purchasing and rentals manager. "We had some experience with them on Batman Live in Europe, and our crew chiefs have had positive experiences. Victors were specified for Reba McEntire's tour, and that gave us the push we needed to purchase the lights. We bought them, sent them out on the tour and found them to be extremely reliable: The feedback was that they are rock solid."
According to Spector, Victors' optics make the fixtures shine. "We did a shootout with them and other spotlights, and we were very impressed. That's the hallmark that sets Robert Juliat products apart from the other guys."
