Well.. I bit the bullet. Got a bit of a hike in the budget not by much mind you.. but I'm going to the dark side.. errr ahh bright side!
After considering what i want out of my fixture all week and then really chewing om it which distracted me at work I'm going with 2 radions. Man I feel guilty saying that after owning SOLs so long.. but considering that I could take up to 4 sols with my middle brace or a hefty diy bill from the looks of it. I decided to be lazy and go with a finished fixture.. (not really lazy, it means I have to continue my 12 hr shifts another month or two)

Lol.. what did i get myself into.


Thanks all

the all in one features of the radions are what sold me , simply its clean ,powefull and had full contrability over just about everything you want in color and intensity. ive never done a diy but i can imagine in order to get the same quality finish would cost a fair bit, especially if you enjoy the little things like touch sensors and cd programs to save your settings and explore.

its a fun fixture too i could play with the programming forever lol

Radion is a great fixture but for the price of 2 of those you can have 4 Vegas. However I see their announcement today they are dropping the price to $599 for the G1 and $649 for the G2. That's awesome! Definitely makes them more affordable.
