Entertainment Controls

Spectrum Lighting represents the finest in theatrical dimming. Electronic Theater Controls, ETC was started 30 years ago with the conviction that there was a better way to make a lighting control console. Our popular lighting control consoles are thousands of times more powerful than those groundbreaking early versions, and the thousands of lighting systems ETC has produced over the years keep working everyday. People want to light better, so they light with ETC. We found that the HPL lamp is a better way to create brilliant light in a Source Four®, which in its own right is a better way to make a spotlight.  We are continuously redefining the boundaries of lighting control with brilliant advances in dimming like our new Sensor®+ SineWave system, and our award-winning Eos®-family control consoles.

Spectrum also represents Altman, a name that stands for quality, durability, pride, and excellence; a name synonymous with tradition, dedication, and design innovation. For over fifty years the Altman family name has stood true as one of the leading innovators of theatrical, architectural, and film and video lighting available on the market today.

Charles Altman, the patriarch and founder, whose spirit is still alive in the company today, founded the company based on the ideals of a top quality product available at an affordable price. Ronald Altman, whose memory still inspires loyalty and will always live on as the company grows. Robert Altman, a son who leads the company into the 21st century with state of the art innovations and high quality product with his father Charlie's philosophy still in mind. Randall Altman, a grandson, who is stride by stride with Robert maintaining family pride in excellence. As the generations continue through the constant pursuit of excellence, these individuals as well as other family members and complete staff of employees strive to keep the family philosophy alive with customer satisfaction, personal service, and a quality product that has proved to last through the test of time.
