Frequently asked questions
What is B-Stock and does it affect performance?
B-Stock typically means the unit has cosmetic blemishes, dents, or was used for demo purposes, but all optical and mechanical systems function identically to new stock. The 468W LED engine, dimming, framing blades, and color mixing work the same.
Who should pick the new (Product A) version?
Choose Product A if you're renting the fixture to clients, need full manufacturer warranty peace of mind, or prefer pristine appearance. It also lists intermediate skill level compatibility, making it slightly more accessible for less experienced operators.
Is the B-Stock unit suitable for touring?
Yes. Both units are designed for touring and venue installations. B-Stock's only difference is cosmetic; it will deliver the same crisp 6000K output and precise edge control in any touring rig.
Do these fixtures have the same color and gobo control?
Yes, both have the 6-position dichroic color wheel, 5-position interchangeable gobo wheel, and animation wheel. The framing blades, strobe effects, and continuous 0–100% dimming are identical on both units.
