9 out of 10
Feature:
It's a power amp! input and output with volume nobs..... The only down side was the lack of banana plug sockets. But i simply added my own to it. messured the actual power output between 120 - 138 watts each channel at 8 ohms, nice!
Quality:
Of course being a very low cost item the quality is going to lack in places, but where it does lack in the A500 is mainly in the plastic face plates. Internally the electronics are of fairly good build with, alot of the wiring being of a larger than average gauge and fairly solid looking circuits.
Value:
I work in a high end Hi-Fi audio store, and I can get anything from DENON, Cambridge Audio, NAD, Samson, Alesis at COST PRICE! And I went a boaght this Behringer A500 from another audio store! If that doesn't give you the message of the units value for extremely great performance, then I dont know what will!
Desirability:
Id definitely buy another one for my other 2 speakers!
Sound:
The sound is fairly transparent, I was surprised at its performance.
Ease of Use:
Again, its a power amp! 2 volume nobs and a power button!
Support:
I haven't had to contact behringer on this item so far. But I have dealt with them before in the past for my DDX3216 digital mixer, it had a busted processor and was OUT of warranty and they still fixed it with no charge! So I for one CANNOT trash talk this company for their support, at least their Australian support!
Take that HATERS!
Overall:
As I said before, I work in Hi-Fi, I could have gotten any stereo integrated amp from DENON, Cambridge or NAD below cost price. And I found the behringer outperforming all in almost all fronts, sure the Cambridge's are very nice sounding but they simply cannot compete with this for transparency of signal or come anywhere close in power output unless you want to spend 6 times the amount of money you would in buying the behringer.
Product of the YEAR for me!

Feature:
Had features you would expect from an amp except only 1 year warranty where other companies offer 2-3 year. They must know something we don't.
Quality:
After 1 1/2 years and only 322 hours of home recording time, one of the channels blew.
Value:
There are better deals out there in performance, value and durability.
Desirability:
I wouldn't give 2 cents to anyone for this product
Sound:
Just an average sound, not great but not trash either.
Ease of Use:
It's an amp
Support:
Beringer made every attempt to get out of making repairs claiming improper use and ignorance of its purpose and use.
Overall:
After doing the Warranty Waltz with Beringer and burying my poor amp yesterday, I've decided to replace the other Beringer unit I own ASAP.
