The PBR 8-500 is equipped with a fully balanced TT/Bantam patchbay for unlimited creative routing potentiala rarity in the 500-series landscape.

Stable Power

• The PBR 8-500s design was greatly informed by Black Lion Audio’s years of experience modding audio hardware for low noise. They leveraged that know-how to ensure that the PBR 8-500 provides stable and reliable power not found in lesser 500-series chassis.
• PBR 8-500 sports per-channel power regulation to ensure that noise and crosstalk from one module does not affect another. Its hefty power supply provides 400mA per rail per slot maximum, with an overall 1.6A (1.8A non-continuous) per rail, whichever is reached first. The PBR 8-500s power supply is one of the quietest and most reliable ever built in a 500-series rack.
