Cranborne Audio Brick Lane 500
(B-Stock)
* Damaged box but otherwise new *
500 Series analogue PWM Compressor with 6 operating modes and variable Stress control for harmonically-enriched compression effects.
The Brick Lane 500 represents a quantum leap in analogue compression - a fully-analogue PWM Compressor that transcends traditional dynamics control methodologies through its revolutionary Modal PWM Compression architecture.
Imagine a single compressor that isn't just a compressor - but an entire compression arsenal compressed into one revolutionary module. The Brick Lane 500's Modal PWM Compression is like having six legendary hardware compressors at your fingertips, each with its own distinct personality, sonic signature, and dynamic DNA. Each mode isn't merely a setting; it's an entirely different compression philosophy.
Every mode effectively rewires your patchbay and brings you a totally different style of compression, featuring unique compression ballistics that fundamentally transform the unit's behaviour. Attack and release controls morph dramatically across modes - from glacially slow Vari-Mu-style curves to lightning-fast FET-like responsiveness. Compression ratios dance between gentle 2:1 nudges and aggressive 20:1 sonic obliterations. The knee characteristics shift from buttery-smooth rounded edges to razor-sharp precision.

B-Stock Gear FAQs
What does B-Stock mean?
In the UK you can only sell items as New if they are in their unopened, original packaging. But what happens to the items that may have been sold and returned within the purchase cool off period? They can’t be sold as new anymore because the box has been opened. It’s not new, but it’s also not second-hand, so it is then classed as B-Stock and typically priced somewhere in between. The same also applies for items that might have been scratched or dented in the manufacturing process or during delivery.
All of our B-Stock items are sold on behalf of our manufacturing partners and are under 3 month Make Noise Pro Audio warranty and in certain circumstances the original manufacturers warranty too.
All units will have been either fully tested by us in-house or a factory QC by the manufacturer where appropriate.

B-stock units are usually in "as new" condition. You get the reassurance of being a relatively unused product with the lower cost vs buying new.
