what is "B" stock

It is refurbished gear from the original source. Supposedly returned defective gear, it has supposedly been repaired and repackaged for sale. Often the repair is missing, but no worry, the item comes with s shortened (usually one year) manufacturer's warranty. You then have the bother of taking it to a factory authorized repairshop. A minor irritation, but a big saving on the purchase price, usually 50 to 70%

"B" stock also refers to items the Manufacturuer used at Audio Shows and Conventions to demo their products for dealers and customers.
