whitehousejamie Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Any suggestions for good priced Mac 300 / 250 lamps online? Also, is there much difference between the MSD250/2 and the HSD250? Thanks Jamie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 The MSD 250/2 is a Philips Broadway lamp, the HSD250 is probably an Osram lamp - I don't know of another manufacturer using HSD nomenclature. Lamp life claims to be equivalent.Philips MSD output of 18000lm at 8500 KOsram HSD output of 17000lm at 6000 - 7800 K (Depending on model) So the Philips MSD is brighter and bluer. Unfortunately I've always had 'preferred suppliers' - we've used Stage Electrics, AC Lighting and Whitelight. Can't comment on price as I never see the budget, just the goods!

Gareth A Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 If you are part of a company and can set up an account then I have always found the best company to be Mico Lighting in Leeds. I did a comparisom of all the lamps we use and the lamp prices using Stage, Whitelight, Lamp Merchant, International Lamps and AC Lighting. Bar a couple of theatre lamps which I cant remember, Mico saved a lot of money. If we bought one of every type thne Mico immediately saved us £300.! In one Hit!!! So if you have the time, they were definately the cheapest ever for the MSR stuff and MSD stuff. They also only deal normally in Philips and Osram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewR Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Mico are cheap, but I have had on a couple of times had the following conversation with them, Hi, you sent me some MSD250 lamps, can you check because I could have sworn I ordered MSD250/2 Oh yes, the order was for 250/2's is there any difference? Grrrrr! yes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
