Hi,
I have big cinema with big screen.
I want to play 2D movie with 2 Christie 2230.
Both are connected to DCP2000.
Can i do it?

How big is your screen? The Christie CP2230 is a large machine, and as long as you have a big enough bulb in, you don't need two of them. At least not for 2D.
We used to have a CP2230 with a 3kW bulb on two of our largest screens, around 12 meters wide. Plenty of light for that! Even a bit too much, we had to dim it quite a lot.
