ADJ Launches Vintage Bar

ADJ's Vintage Bar

The Vintage Bar from ADJ is a decorative blinder offering a central strip of amber blinder COB LEDs surrounded by a textured reflector illuminated by RGBL color-mixing LEDs.

At the heart of the Vintage Bar is a strip comprised of four independently controllable 150W amber (2,000K) COB LEDs. Offering smooth dimming control as well as variable speed strobing, these LEDs can generate an output of up to 27,000 lumens as well as dynamic chase patterns and subtle glow effects. A textured reflector panel surrounds the primary LEDs, maximizing their impact and generating a field angle of 160 degrees.

The reflector panel is surrounded on all four sides by 0.8W SMD 5050 RGBL color-mixing LEDs, which create a vibrant background glow effect. In total, 120 LEDs are integrated into each unit, grouped into 20 independently controllable zones. This allows for eye-candy effects to be programmed, either within a single fixture or running across multiple units.

Mounting options allow the Vintage Bar to be deployed in a variety of different ways and integrated into stage designs or lighting rigs. The fixture is supplied with a pair of heavy-duty adjustable feet, which mount securely to the body of the unit, locked in place by large thumb tightening screws. The feet can be used to stand the unit directly on a stage in a vertical orientation, but also feature 108mm Omega clamp receivers, which can be used to rig it to a truss or lighting bar. Multiple units can also be locked together, end-to-end, using a tongue-and-groove system, secured by locking pins, built into each side of the fixture. One or two (locked together) units can be mounted to the Accu-Stand VFB1 base plate, using the dedicated VFB1-VBA adapter, allowing for free-standing vertical deployment.

Measuring 35.75" by 11.50" by 10.12", the Vintage Bar weighs in at 41.89lb. It features locking power sockets as well as a choice of five-pin DMX or RJ45 signal connections, with all input sockets located on one side and the corresponding thru sockets on the other to aid with cable management.

An OLED display on the unit's rear panel provides access to a menu-driven interface that allows easy and intuitive setup and configuration. It is compatible with the sACN and Art-Net protocols, as well as standard DMX with RDM support and a choice of 10 modes utilizing between five and 97 channels. The fixture is also equipped with Aria X2 wireless technology, allowing remote configuration and OTA firmware updates via Bluetooth as well as reliable wireless DMX control.

"The Vintage Bar is more than just a blinder -- it's a creative statement piece," comments Alfred Gonzales, ADJ USA's director of sales. "By combining a classic warm white blinder with vibrant RGBL color mixing background glow effects, it offers lighting designers a fresh and dynamic tool for crafting atmosphere, energy, and visual impact."

The Vintage Bar is shipping now from ADJ USA and is due to arrive in stock at ADJ Europe in late September 2025.
