Frequently asked questions
Can either fixture be used for both touring and permanent installation?
The MAC Aura XB is designed for touring rigs and smaller permanent venues—its motorized pan/tilt and compact weight suit mobile setups. The Exterior Wash 310 QUAD is purpose-built for permanent outdoor mounting with IP66 rating and temperature extremes; it has no pan/tilt and is not portable.
Which produces more light?
The Exterior Wash 310 QUAD outputs up to 8300 lumens compared to the MAC Aura XB's 6000 lumens, making it better for large-scale facade or structural lighting. The MAC Aura XB compensates with a zoom range and motorized movement for stage applications.
How do beam options differ between the two?
The MAC Aura XB has a motorized 10–60° uniform zoom range for flexible coverage in one fixture. The Exterior Wash 310 QUAD offers six fixed interchangeable beam angle options (10°, 14°, 22°, 41°, 61°, 14° x 61°), requiring physical lens swaps but optimized for architectural throw distances.
Which is better for outdoor use?
The Exterior Wash 310 QUAD is engineered for permanent outdoor conditions with IP66 rating and operating temperatures from -30° C to 40° C. The MAC Aura XB has no environmental rating specified and is optimized for indoor venues or protected touring environments.
