AMX DGX6400-ENC B-Stock — Save $12,795 on 64x64 AV
AMX DGX6400-ENC B-Stock: $12,795 Off Enterprise AV
If you're speccing out a large-scale AV system and the line item for a 64x64 matrix switcher is making your client wince, this B-Stock listing deserves a serious look. The AMX DGX6400-ENC Enova DGX 6400 Enclosure is available right now at $51,180 — against a MAP of $63,975 new, that's a $12,795 savings on the enclosure alone, before you've populated a single board slot.

This isn't a stripped-down unit or a discontinued chassis. It's the same AMX Enova DGX 6400 infrastructure that goes into boardrooms, broadcast facilities, and higher-ed AV installations. The B-Stock designation is a condition classification, not a capability one.
What the Enclosure Actually Gives You
The DGX6400-ENC is the physical and logical backbone of a 64x64 matrix switching system. By itself, it ships with the chassis, a built-in NetLinx NX Integrated Controller, and redundant power supplies — the infrastructure components you'd want regardless of how you populate it.
From there, you add boards to match the install:
- Up to 16 video input boards and 16 video output boards, each carrying four connections — scaling up to a full 64-input, 64-output configuration
- Support for 4K and Ultra High Definition (UHD) content across the matrix
- Optional Audio Switching Boards for audio breakaway — route audio independently of video — plus parametric EQ on each DGX output for system tuning without an external DSP on every run
The NetLinx NX controller being integrated — rather than racked separately — matters for installs where rack space is constrained or where you want a single managed device handling both switching logic and room control. It also simplifies the programming scope: one controller, one IP address, one point of access for the AV system.
Where This Fits in a Real Installation
The DGX 6400 sits in a specific part of the AMX Enova DGX line — substantial enough to handle enterprise-scale distribution, but not the top of the range. For a corporate campus with a central AV closet feeding 20–40 displays across conference rooms, a university AV core serving multiple lecture halls, or a broadcast facility needing flexible routing with 4K headroom, a fully-populated DGX 6400 is a reasonable fit.
It's also a sensible choice for integrators who need to future-proof a mid-size installation without committing to a chassis significantly larger than current requirements. You can start with a partial board population and expand within the same enclosure as the system grows.
The Honest Case for Buying B-Stock Here
At this price tier, the difference between B-Stock and new isn't a cosmetic scratch on a guitar headstock — it's $12,795. That's real money that could cover installation labor, additional boards, or simply come back to the project budget.
B-Stock on professional AV infrastructure typically means one of a few things: a unit returned after a short-term evaluation, minor cosmetic handling marks from a demonstration unit, or a packaging issue on something that was never installed. It does not mean field-worn, modified, or missing components. Check the specific listing notes for this unit's condition description before purchasing — we'll tell you exactly what triggered the B-Stock classification.
The enclosure itself — chassis, controller, power supplies — is the part of the system you're least likely to swap out in a refresh cycle. Boards get updated; the backbone stays. Spending less on the enclosure without compromising the spec is straightforward math for a cost-conscious integration budget.
When B-Stock Isn't the Right Call
If your client contract specifies new-in-box equipment explicitly, or if you're in a vertical (government, healthcare) where procurement documentation requires a factory-new designation, pay the difference for new. That's a real constraint and worth honoring rather than creating a headache at sign-off.
Similarly, if you need AMX's standard new-unit warranty terms unambiguously attached to the enclosure for a long-term service contract, verify the B-Stock warranty coverage with us before committing. We'd rather clarify that upfront.
Bottom Line for Integrators
For most commercial installs where the functional spec matters more than the box it shipped in, the AMX DGX6400-ENC B-Stock at $51,180 is a straightforward decision. Same 64x64 4K matrix capability, same integrated NetLinx NX controller, same redundant power architecture — $12,795 less on the line item.
If you're building out a proposal and want to confirm board compatibility, current board availability, or the specifics of this unit's B-Stock condition, reach out before you submit the bid. We work with integrators on these regularly and can turn around answers quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the DGX6400-ENC enclosure include, and what do you need to add separately?
The enclosure ships with the chassis, a built-in NetLinx NX Integrated Controller, and redundant power supplies. Video input boards, video output boards, and optional Audio Switching Boards are purchased and populated separately, letting you configure the matrix to match the actual install — up to 64 inputs and 64 outputs at full population.
Does B-Stock affect the AMX warranty on this unit?
B-Stock warranty coverage can vary from the standard new-unit terms. We strongly recommend confirming the specific warranty terms on this listing with us before purchasing, especially if you're writing the unit into a long-term service contract or client-facing warranty agreement.
Is the DGX 6400 a good fit if I only need a 32x32 matrix today but want room to grow?
Yes — that's one of the legitimate reasons to choose the DGX 6400 over a smaller chassis. You can populate it partially at install and add boards as the system expands, without replacing the enclosure. The B-Stock savings make that headroom even easier to justify in an initial budget.
Can the Audio Switching Boards replace a standalone DSP in smaller installs?
For straightforward audio routing and basic room-level EQ, the optional Audio Switching Boards — which support audio breakaway and parametric EQ on each DGX output — can reduce or eliminate the need for a separate DSP in less complex installs. For facilities with demanding acoustic requirements or extensive DSP processing needs, a dedicated DSP is still the better answer, but for clean corporate AV routing the onboard audio capability covers a lot of ground.
