Soliloquy Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 Is this any good ? I've always kind of stayed clear of Behringer gear, cheap components and reliability issues have scared me off. But this looks a little bit good, and at that price a bit of a bargain to boot.

They have a poor reliability track record and tend to have pretty nonsensical power ratings. If it were me I'd take my £200 and see what's on Ebay... Quote
Phil Starr Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 I've used an EP1500 for PA for years without problems. I've gone on to buy an EP2500 because of my so far good experience. Their PA stuff seems a lot better than their instrument amps. The EPX range are newish and use a digital power supply (which should be better) but some of their digital stuff has had reliability problems. I've no idea whether or not it applies to these amps. Don't forget though that if you are using this as a bass amp you will still need a decent pre-amp and speakers so the saving may be less than you expect. The pursuit of kilowatts isn't the best way of getting the best sound. If you want this amp for PA then it is worth considering. Quote

RMS output power is 580 watts bridged into 8 ohms. Apart fom that, if you can get around the anti-Behringer sentiments, it may well be a good, lightweight, 600 wattish solution. Have a look here too: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=109387&hl=epq900"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...7&hl=epq900[/url] Quote
