In one embodiment, a light-emitting device having a body, a reflector, a light source die, and a spectral converter is disclosed. The spectral converter may be formed adjacent to, but distanced away from, the light source die. The spectral converter may be configured to spectrally adjust a portion of the light output having a predetermined spectral content. In another embodiment, a system for illumination having a plurality of lighting assemblies is disclosed. Each of the lighting assemblies comprises a spectral converter configured to spectrally adjust a portion of the light output so that the plurality of lighting assemblies are configured to emit substantially similar spectral output. In yet another embodiment, a lighting apparatus having the spectral converter is disclosed.
