CineAV has proudly facilitated the first purchase by Stage Effects Group of four Christie® M 4K25 RGB pure laser projectors. This investment marks a significant step in expanding the company’s rental and staging capabilities with powerful projection technology.
The relationship was initiated with CineAV providing repair services on Stage Effects’ existing Christie HD14K projectors and developed into a broader collaboration. CineAV stepped in to assist on a client project and offered a demonstration of the M 4K25 RGB in a live environment. Impressed by the projector’s performance and backed by CineAV’s consultative approach, Stage Effects Group turned to CineAV to facilitate the supply of the four new units.
Clwyd Jones, Technical Manager at CineAV, commented: “This order reflects our commitment to understanding our clients’ needs and delivering the right solution with ongoing support. From initial conversations to today’s on-site show, we’ve worked closely with the Stage Effects team and look forward to seeing the projectors in action.”
Theo Papenfus, Director at Stage Effects Group, added: “Working with CineAV has been a seamless experience from start to finish. Their responsiveness, technical knowledge, and willingness to go the extra mile have made this a great first purchase. We’re confident this will be the first of many.”
“We are delighted that Stage Effects has chosen Christie M 4K25 RGB pure laser projectors for their fleet," commented Phil Lord, Regional Sales Manager - Africa, Christie. "First introduced in 2007, the original M Series was a game-changer for the ProAV industry, and the new M 4K RGB Series continues this legacy of ruggedness and innovation. We wish Stage Effects many years of success with their new technology.”
This investment further reinforces CineAV’s role as a specialist partner to the rental staging sector in South Africa, offering expertise, personalised service, and access to industry-leading projection solutions.
