No frills here -- just plenty of power for your passive PA. Put this power amp to work pushing 2 x 1200 watts into 4 Ohms, or 4000 watts into 4 Ohms bridged.

Both high-tech and highly efficient, the Behringer Europower EPX4000 power amplifier outputs 2 x 1,200 Watts into 4 Ohms, or 4,000 Watts into 4 Ohms bridged -- plenty of power to support your passive PA system. Behringer puts the power of Accelerated Transient Response (ATR) technology at your fingertips in a lightweight package that you can take from studio to stage without breaking your back. Weighing in at just a little over 22 pounds, the rackmountable Europower EPX4000 is a portable solution for any performance requiring lots of power.

Built-in 100 Hz Crossover

On the rear of the power amp, you have two switches. One allows you to operate the Europower EPX4000 in mono, stereo (Two-Channel mode) or Bridge mode (which is always mono). The other switch is a built-in crossover switch that lets you put the amp into Bi-Amp mode, which sends low-frequency content under 100 Hz to the CH2 Output and the high-frequency component to CH1 automatically, without the use of external hardware.

Automatically Avoids Clipping

An onboard clip limiter allows you to get even more out of the power amplifier without overdriving it or your speaker system. How does it work? This built-in technology senses when the amp is being overdriven, and automatically reduces the input level to avoid clipping distortion.

Make Your Connections

So that you can connect the Europower EPX4000 to your choice of gear, the power amp sports flexible inputs that accept balanced XLR, 1/4-inch read more TRS, unbalanced 1/4-inch TS, and RCA connections. Professional locking speaker connectors and touch-proof binding posts support most speaker wiring systems, giving you a straightforward way to connect your speakers.

Ultra-Light Construction

The 22-pound, 2U rackmountable Europower EPX4000 is a cinch to haul and set up on your own. Switch-mode technology (for the power supply) eliminates the heavy transformer typically found in similar power amps, which in turn, significantly reduces the overall weight of the unit and allows it to operate noise-free, with excellent transient response, and very low power consumption. Lightweight, powerful, and efficient, the design of the Europower EPX4000 is a win-win for everyone.

I'm a working musician on a budget so for the power I was looking for there was nothing in my price range. I've had a EP1500 I've used for around 10 years and its never let me down. So I expected the same with the EPX4000. I'm using it to power 2 Peavey 118 Subs (400watts @ 8 ohms each in stereo mono) and the EP1500 to power two PV215 (700watts @ 4 ohms in stereo) through a DOD sr835 crossovers. Its only been 2 gigs but the sound is really amazing, plenty loud and full. I'm only got the EPX set half way and EP 3/4. I plan to get another EPX 4000 for the 215s. Don't believe the hype, you don't have to pay ridicules money, you just have to use it correctly. I would put my system up against anyone's. I had people telling me go get folded horns which is over kill for the clubs we play. zZounds payment plan is great for working musicians and their customer service is second to none. I will use zZounds for future purchases.
