Choose the standard unit for new-equipment warranty peace of mind, or the B-Stock version if budget is a priority and you accept minor cosmetic wear or previous use.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between standard and B-Stock?
B-Stock typically indicates refurbished, demo, or open-box inventory. The specs, features, and optical performance are identical; the difference is usually price and warranty terms. Verify return policy and warranty coverage with your retailer.
Are the specs and brightness the same on both?
Yes. Both feature a 760W LED engine producing 28,000 lumens at 5800K, a 5.7 to 51-degree zoom range, 14 precision lenses, and all the same connectivity options (DMX, Art-Net, sACN, Martin P3 Control, wireless DMX).
Which should I buy for a touring production?
Either will perform identically on stage. For touring, buy the one that fits your budget: the standard unit if warranty and condition matter most, or B-Stock if you're confident in the retailer's testing and accept the lower warranty coverage.
