"You won't be able to find a better Bass Combo Amp for this Price!!"

Feature:
For the money - try to find a good quality sounding pre-amp distortion DI with a for less than $200. I use a 3 channel Sans Amp Pro-DI with my gig rig,...and the sound is not far off that mark. The Channel 2 distortion has a nice smooth grit to it or even a nasty naughty old Rick sound I've missed at times (I'm playing an active Ibanez 5-String)

Quality:
This Combo weighs 61 lbs - a very solid cabinet with minor sound bleed until it's turned up to about 7 or more. The twin ports out the back help this alot!!.

Value:
Absolutely the best out there for this amount of money - it's that simple.

Desirability:
It looks good, being a more particular type regarding athsteics - I've always thought Behringer does a good job with their bling factor. I prefer the black bezel over the old silver ones.

Sound:
This is definately a little beast, and the best buy out there!! I read at least 10 reviews floatng out there before buying, and the only review I disagree with is the claim that this unit is only an "actual 180 watts". Don't be misled by that claim - I use this as a home combo for home rehersal & learning songs in a 900sq ft space, and if I were to compare the lower volume of my 350 watt Hartke Stack (4x10/1x15) with the Master Volume set to 2-3 (both preamps set to 7) to avoid discomfort or rattling things off the walls, this Behringer gives the same thing at a 3-4 master volume setting for that small space (even thought it only has the single 15). So while I'd only question how that Wattage was measured, the bottom line is for a 60lb little kickback/wedge style cab - this thing does just fine. While I'd obviously never say this amp would replace my stack,...I would have to sheepishly say I mistakenly over-bought - perhaps the BXL1800 would have been the better choice for my home studio usage (oooops). Yet, this amp could be used as an additional on stage bass amp/monitor for opposite side of stage at the larger venues & festivals I play - certainly cheaper (and more manageable) than running a powered monitor thru additionals channels on a mixing board at the mercy of a sound guy. (my drummer likes to hear some thump) While this makes a decent rehersal/studio amp,...it would also be more than adequate for small venues like jazz clubs, acoustic cafes, etc - for those of you who are doing that sort of thing.

Ease of Use:
Very straight forward

Support:
Haven't had any problems, but historically Behringer was good about a different warantee issue I had with a PA sound processor (for whatever that's worth).

Overall:
If you want a good bass sound for small to medium sized venues without handing over your wallet - at least give yourself the benefit of giving one of these a test drive.

"Best Bass Amp to Price Ratio."

Feature:
Equalizer, Ultrabass, Switchable channels. Foot pedal for the Ultrabass and Channels. Enough Said.

Quality:
8 on quality because for some reason they have a 200W speaker in this instead of a 300W. I have had this up all the way but it would make logical sense if it had a 300W in it. Other than that this amp feels very solid. Unlike some of Behringer's stuff in which they have a bad rep for fragile items.

Value:
The price is great. I bought this at a local music store or 300 but oh well.

Desirability:
7, mostly since Behringer is not a company people flock to first.

Sound:
The sound is very powerful and the equalizer on it replaced my foot controller. Ultrabass is excellent but be warned it conks out on really low notes (Like the first five frets of the E string.) But the Ultrabass is meant to be used in the upper range anyway and that's were it shines!! Like I mentioned there's pretty much not any sound you can't get out of the equalizer.

Ease of Use:
To me this amp is very straight forward. Beginners may be overwhelmed my the equalizer but I was kinda too!
