February 2026 Auction: High End Film, Broadcast AV Equipment from Major UK Vendors
How This Month’s Auction Equipment Can Fit Into Your Workflow
This month’s KitPlus Auctions catalogue is abound with great equipment that could fit straight into the every day work of production companies, rental operations, studios and more. Rather than isolated bits of pro video kit, the inventory reads like a decommissioned multi-camera studio and live production workflow. High quality lighting at scale, audio desks, monitoring, vision infrastructure, camera support built for daily use.
For engineers, production managers and rental houses, this is an opportunity to acquire great quality, well cared for equipment at a fraction of the new cost.
A big thanks to our vendors this month for enabling the reuse of a wide range of high quality assets - this is a great opportunity to acquire items straight from some of the major UK operators in broadcast, lighting and AV.
Below is a look at some of the key items
In this article
Lighting: Studio-Ready, Professional Quality
There’s a great selection of lighting this month, particularly for anyone building or expanding a controlled studio environment.
Multiple lots of the Dedolight DLH4 Light Kit with Europlug offer compact, focusable tungsten sources that still have a place in interview setups and controlled key-light environments. Dedolight optics are precise. If you know, you know.
For softer LED-based setups, the Fomex RollLite LED Light Kits are practical for flexible studio rigs, mobile installs, or quick turnaround corporate shoots. Lightweight, adaptable, easy to rig.
The Kino-Flo Celeb 850 LED DMX (CEL-850CU) sits comfortably in broadcast interview lighting. High-output LED panel, DMX controllable, widely deployed across factual and studio environments.
And for facilities still running traditional tungsten rigs, the De Sisti Mini Spider 16A fixtures remain workhorse soft sources in theatre and television studios.
This isn’t entry-level lighting - this is professional, and if you’re on a budget your productions will really benefit from the uplift in quality these assets can bring.
Audio: From OB Desk to Production Control
The audio section leans heavily toward installed or OB-grade workflows.
The Yamaha O2R96 Digital Audio Mixer remains a known quantity in compact broadcast control rooms and flyaway systems. Reliable digital architecture, well understood signal routing, and still serviceable in many live and studio environments.
At the higher end, the Lawo Sapphire Audio Mixing Consoles are firmly in broadcast territory. Lawo desks are built for continuous operation in radio and TV production environments – not occasional use.
For post and hybrid workflows, the Digidesign C24 Control Surface still integrates into Pro Tools-based facilities, particularly for facilities balancing broadcast and post-production.
In short: this is great kit that wouldn’t look out of place in any broadcast control-room.
Camera Infrastructure and Support: Built for Daily Use
Infrastructure often gets overlooked when buying used broadcast equipment in the UK. It shouldn’t.
The presence of multiple Sony HDTX100 HD Triax Cam Adaptors signals genuine multi-camera broadcast deployment. Triax systems still underpin a significant amount of legacy and hybrid HD workflows across studios and event spaces.
Pair that with the Vinten FP188 Fusion Pedestal with FH-145 Head , and you’re looking at camera support designed for studio floors and gallery-controlled environments. Smooth tracking. Repeatable movement. Not lightweight field gear.
For acquisition and high-end digital workflows, the Codex CDX-7500 with Power Supply sits in the data management and recording space often associated with high-end digital cinematography and broadcast integration.
These are not just accessories - they are backbone components of any broadcast workflow.
Monitoring and Vision: Gallery-Grade Tools
Monitoring inventory reinforces the control-room theme.
The JVC DT-V24G2 Monitor is a known broadcast reference monitor, frequently deployed in galleries and edit suites for accurate picture evaluation.
The Vutrix 17" HD Quad Monitors point clearly toward multi-source monitoring – ideal for OB racks or compact control positions where space efficiency matters.
And the Barco LDX-55 display extends the monitoring conversation into presentation and professional display environments, particularly relevant for corporate studios and control rooms.
Again, this is workflow kit, coming out of live use.
Why This Matters for Buyers of Used Broadcast Equipment in The UK
We often see two types of used equipment sales:
Random disposals
Planned decommissioning
This catalogue sits closer to the second.
For rental houses expanding inventory, owner-operators upgrading studios, or facilities managers replacing legacy broadcast gear, there is a great opportunity here. Lighting, audio, monitoring, camera infrastructure – all represented.
Buying used broadcast equipment in the UK isn’t about ‘getting cheap gear’ (though there are bargains to be had). It’s about allocating your funds intelligently. The secondary market now supports fully professional broadcast workflows – if you know what you’re looking for, and you’re ready to respond to the opportunity when it comes up.
KitPlus Auctions has consistently focused on specialist AV and broadcast inventory. That matters. The buyers are technical. The sellers are industry-facing. This month’s catalogue reflects that ecosystem.
If you’re assessing upcoming capital expenditure – whether for studio refresh, OB expansion, or rental fleet balancing – this sale is worth a review.
