Looking for a bass combo to cover all of your practice, rehearsal and recording needs? One that will not only deliver awesome sound and incredible low-end punch, but also enough power to compete with a band? And - if you had your way - one that could also cut it on larger stages with additional speakers? No such thing, you say? Then check out the BX1200.

Behringer's largest Ultrabass combo combines raw power with an amazingly flexible 2-channel preamp section and an abundance of professional I/O options rarely found in bass combos, to give you everything you need in a bass combo and then some. Its oversized power supply, along with revolutionary, patent-pending Dynamizer circuitry and the carefully designed bass reflex enclosure, ensure that the short-circuit proof, virtually indestructible power amp with its 2-speed thermo-controlled fan will always deliver to its full capability without sacrificing punch or sound quality. The BX1200's preamp section starts with your choice of active or passive inputs, and goes on to offer incredible tone-shaping power, with separate gain controls for each channel and a 4-band EQ. Channel two features switchable and tunable Shape function, which ideally complements the EQ by giving you extra control over those dreaded "nasal" mid frequencies. Both channels also share a built-in Ultrabass function. Based on Behringer's celebrated psychoacoustics units, this subharmonics processor adds ultra-low frequencies to your sound and is tunable and switchable via a front-panel button or the included footswitch.

The BX1200 features a custom-made 12 in. aluminum cone speaker that reproduces your sound with incredible power, sensitivity, and warmth. Should you need extra clout for larger venues, you've got the option of connecting additional speakers and/or power amps. And speaking of connections, you'll also appreciate the stereo tape I/O, the insert facility for outboard effects or processors (preamp out/power amp in), and the tuner and headphone outputs. Not to mention the balanced DI out with XLR connector, perfect for recording or PA applications. Oh, and by the way: the BX1200's innovative wedge shape allows you to use it standing up or tipped back at a perfect floor monitor angle.

"The Best Bass Value Going"
Feature:
The amp came with a pedal for switching channels and switching on the Ultrabass feature. The Ultrabass feature is the same as the Ultrabass rackmount effect which costs about a hundred bucks separately.

Quality:
Everything about this amp is solid and clean. I couldn't find a single flaw. On the second day, the foot pedal wasn't working right, so I turned off the amp, unplugged the pedal, replugged it, powered back up and it worked--no problem! The speaker is clean sounding, even at top volume. I love the solid construction and the handle is heavy enough to lift this hefty amp again and again.

Value:
This amp sounds as good and seems a solid as the Hartke 120w, which costs twice as much.

Desirability:
The BX1200 certainly looks cool. The aluminum speaker cone gives it an expensive look.

Sound:
I've been playing through a vintage Fender tube amp. I thought I needed a new bass until I got this. The range of sound is unbelievable. I haven't found anything that I don't like. The Ultrabass feature has more power than I'd ever use. I sometimes use it with digital or analog effects pedals, which sound great through the effects loop, but it sounds so great without any added effects.

Overall:
If I find that I move up to venues that call for more volume, I'm thinking I'll buy a second one instead of spending the same amount on a 15" cabinet. If I really need more volume, I'm so sold on Behringer, I think I'll buy the BX3000 Bass head and an 8x10 cabinet.

the shape function is awesome, and the amp comes with the footswitch to make life easier. the ultrabass cuts in and out though sometimes. this amp has a ton of I/O on the back

Quality:
SOLID, heavy, built like a tank.

Value:
GREAT!

Desirability:
looks awesome with the 12in. aluminum speaker

great sound, whatever kind of bass you have, active or passive. i have played on it with a Fender Deluxe Precision loaded with quarters pounders, and i also have played a stingray on it, great sound!!btw, this little thin can get pretty loud!

Support:
havent dealt with them. but the amp comes with a lot of papers about support, and they also have a pretty nice website

I like it
