    is behringer trash?

    I also noticed the 8ohm power rating discrepancy as well but this was not a high concern to me in making my purchase of the Behringer EP amps as none of mine are running at an 8 ohm load and my guess is most who buy EP amps to run subs or are running multiple speakers for commercial use are not...

    is behringer trash?

    Here is a link to bench tested EP1500 and EP2500 - the results speak for themselves especially considering the price point....... http://ibsubwoofers.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=amps&action=display&thread=506&page=1

    is behringer trash?

    I own 4 of the Behringer EuroPower amps (2x ep2500, 2x ep4000) - these amps are untouchable for the price. With a fan mod they are silent. FWIW: My advice would be to ALWAYS buy the larger Europower amp for a paltry $50 more up front (meaning buy the EP4000 over the EP2000)......the bench...

    The Speaker Company,...R.I.P.

    Wow - I had a feeling in late Dec when I ordered a pair of dipole TSC speakers at the 40% price that either TSC was going to shut down or maybe relaunch a whole new line of speakers as the site looked to be so low on inventory and the prices were ridiculously low. Over the past 6 months I...

    CMoy Amps? Do I need one? Sennheiser PC350

    A cmoy would be money well spent - I have bought several and also built my own. They have improved the sound and dynamic range of all 4 sets of headphones I own. For a little more money the Mini3 headphone amp though is amazing and puts my Cmoys to shame. I picked one up off Ebay for about...

    Anyone ever deal with parts-express.com?

    PE is about as solid as it gets - great people to deal with. Not always the very best prices but def competitive.

    Denon vs. Pioneer

    I used to feel the same about 5.1 vs 7.1......until I finally broke down and picked up a good pair of dipole speakers. I literally just wired the side surround speakers up yesterday as my carpenter ran the wires through the wall so they were invisible (the biggest headache to adding the side...

    IPOD Docking Station for Yamaha

    I have a couple of YDS11 Yamaha docking stations - they require a specific Ipod docking input on the back of the receiver. It is a convenient but imperfect solution for listening through an Ipod. I find the lack of a simple search function a real headache (I have 60gb+ of music to sift...

    I don't have cable or sat running to this system but I will try bypassing the power conditioner tonight to see if that is the issue. Thx for suggestion.

    Ideas on how to minimize Samson S-Convert Noise??

    Just finished putting together a new system in a dedicated home theater/music room. I am running a Yamaha rx-v665 as a pre-amp with a dcx2496 and twin ep4000 amps. I am using a Samson S-Convert in between the Yamaha's pre-outs and the inputs to the DCX. The hum/buzz sound during quiet passages...

    7.1 vs 7.2 - Does this matter to any of you guys?

    Yes you are probably right - I was considering a DCX2496 anyway to manage eq and xover duties and that would make the 7.1 vs 7.2 a non-issue. That is probably what I will do and it will open up a lot more options for receivers - thanks

    7.1 vs 7.2 - Does this matter to any of you guys?

    I am setting up a 2nd music/ht system in my home. My other av system has a Yamaha rx-v665 (7.2) as basically a pre-amp (my mains and dual subs are run off two EP2500s).... As I am looking around for a receiver to purchase for my second system I am open to other receivers besides the Yamaha...

    Wood Floor Vs Down-Firing Vs Front Firing

    I recently switched from down firing subs in a mid to large size room with hardwood floors to front firing 15s - I found the front firing sub config sounded better at least in my room and I do believe there is less unwanted resonance. the downward firing wasn't bad, I just found the front...

    BEHRINGER EP2500 - Adding in to current system - couple quick questions

    Think I found 12v trigger solution.... First off thanks to all who replied to this post, your responses have been very helpful. I have added the EP2500 and ART Cleanbox into my home system (absolutely amazing upgrade and worth every cent I might add) and currently am just leaving the amp...

    OMG...Just hooked up Behringer EP2500

    Just had to post this.......I hooked up my new Behringer EP2500 to run my front L&R mains (Klipsch KG5.5) in place of powering these speakers with my current AV receiver (Yamaha RX-V665)......there is absolutely NO comparison! The Klipsch are efficient speakers so I was not sure what kind of...

    BEHRINGER EP2500 - Adding in to current system - couple quick questions

    Thanks for the suggestion but I already placed the order for the EP2500 and the Cleanbox from B&H photo last night. If I like the EP2500 I may just buy a second EP2500 and will buy the Samson s-convert to use with the subs instead of a 2nd Cleanbox. I was not aware that the Cleanbox would need...
