Martin Martin Elp Par B-Stock vs Martin Martin Elp Par Ip
Both are professional RGBW LED pars with similar output and color mixing, but the ELP PAR IP adds IP65 weatherproofing and higher candela intensity for outdoor and touring durability, while the ELP PAR B-Stock uses PowerCON TRUE1 TOP connectors and includes full-gamut color calibration for precision venue work. Choose the IP if you need outdoor reliability or maximum throw distance; choose the B-Stock if you prioritize color accuracy in controlled indoor venues and work with PowerCON infrastructure.
