Absen Upgrades M2.9 Rental LEDs

Absen, a world-leading manufacturer of LED solutions, celebrated industry award for its flagship M2.9 rental staging panel with the introduction of the new Absen M2.9 Pro.

Since its introduction in September last year, the M2.9 has taken the rental staging industry by storm with its innovative and patented locking system which allows technicians to mount and lock cabinets in as fast as three seconds, and a self-cooling module design and high-refresh rate which make it the perfect solution for indoor staging.

In keeping with its mission to provide the most advanced LED solutions, Absen Europe announced the availability of the M2.9 Pro – a new version of the M2.9 – taking the product a further step ahead of the competition.

The Absen M2.9 Pro is the new generation of the award winning M2.9, which marked a major change in the rental staging industry in 2016. The M2.9 Pro is a sub-3mm pitch LED solution which features a patented fast locking system that typically saves up 50% of building time compared to standard LED panels, while ensuring perfect alignment and protecting against pixel damage thanks to its advanced design, making the build-up of a video wall even faster.

This panel is the perfect fit for any rental staging or production company looking for a lightweight, robust and reliable LED solution that is fast and easy to assemble / dismantle, whilst providing stunning images.

Weighting only 8.6kg, the new M2.9 Pro is Absen’s new flagship black SMD panel. Boasting a contrast ratio of 7,500:1 in a 168×168 pixel cabinet (500 x 500 x 96 mm), the M2.9 Pro can be stacked to create a ±5° concave or convex screen surface without the need for any additional tools or accessories, taking modularity to another level.

The new version has been improved with advanced embedded image processing to ensure a more striking and eye-catching content for the audience: An 18bit+ display improves grayscale performance under low brightness, showing more vivid and realistic images. It also features ClearView technology, which allows the texture, size and contrast of images displayed to be adjusted in order to further enhance image details. Finally, the SmartGamma technology improves brightness and grayscale.
