On-Stage Stands LS7730 Lighting Stand with Truss  

This truss system is very good. I use it to mount 8 lights and a mirror ball. I mount my pin spots on the ends of the T bars and turn them out away from the mirror ball and shine the pins back. It works great. and at the 45 angle I could add more lights. The only small issue is getting the security  pins out at tear down. The truss has to be perfectly level and all thumb screws lose to get them out. And that is probably more operator error than anything. It is lightweight that is good. When you get it out of the box you will think it is too light but it isn't. You can handle it by yourself. Just be sure to have someone help you raise it up.

Solid construction and light in weight for easy transport.  Just be careful not to over-tighten clamps and bolts.  Truss has 1 1/2 inch diameter tubing, so you can use standard 1 1/2 in clampsfor your fixtures.  Overall, a very good product that should hold up well if handled properly.  

I use my truss for large lighting displays while dj-ing, and providing live lighting & sound. It works well, and I use scanners and moving lights on it. Its strong and looks professional. I wouldnt use it for large moving lights due to weight and clamps could break holding the truss to the stands.. But great buy for par cans, and dj lighting and effects!

Let's just say that I have probably put these things to more work than anyone ever before. I have built a permanant senior high stage with three of these trussing systems combined together to create a "V" shape so to speak. On the left and right trussing sections I attached a 47" LCD screen for our song words, powerpoints, and videos (which concerned the contractor and I at first, but they have held for 2 and a half years). I have nearly 40 pars attached to them as well as various effect lights. This stage looks professional for sure. But underneith, it is just these cheap trusses. lol. That is all I have to say. Buy this - It comes highly recomended,

I needed a good lighting setup to do dances, sweet sixteens, etc. and I was debating between this and a simpler t-bar. This was not much more and I am soo glad I got it. It looks very professional and impresses alot of people. The truss is very sturdy and seems to be built well. It can hold alot of lights and doesnt take too long to set up with two people. The only flaws I can find with it are that the truss span doesnt have holes pre drilled, only the sides do, and also the screws have a habit of falling out when its disassembled if they arent tightened down. These are both pretty minor problems, I even prefer drilling my own holes for lights without clamps but not everyone has a drill. If you are choosing between this and a more basic t-bar just by the truss, youll be happy in the long run.
