No longer available at zZounds
This lightweight, super-efficient power amp pushes out a massive 2 x 3000 Watts into 4 Ohms or 2 x 1500 Watts into 8 Ohms -- for an equally light price tag.

The Behringer NU6000 iNUKE power amplifier packs a massive amount of output power into exceptionally lightweight, rack-mountable package. Behringer's revolutionary high-density Class-D technology combined with ultra-efficient switch-mode power supplies ensures these feather-light powerhouses will drive your rig effortlessly for many years to come.

Superb Transient Response

Behringer spent years fine-tuning the high-density Class-D technology that gives the iNUKE Series its oomph. By carefully selecting transistors with extremely high slew rates and optimizing other proprietary parts of the circuitry, these amps react instantly to even the most demanding electronic bass impulses.

When this amazing amplifier technology is combined with Behringer's state-of-the-art switching-mode power supplies, these amplifiers provide tremendous punch. And because they are so much more efficient than conventional designs, they run cooler and don't require the massive heat sinks and heavy toroid transformers typically associated with their conventional counterparts.

Sublimely Simple Operation

The front panel controls and indicators provide your system's vital signs at a glance. After pressing the power button, the power LED lights to show the amp is ready for action. All channels feature positive-detent gain controls with signal LEDs that light when a signal is present, as well as clip LEDs to indicate when the signal is distorted and you need to reduce the input signal.

The rear panel read more is just as elegant, with combo XLR and 1/4" TRS input connectors making the iNUKE compatible with virtually any source, balanced or unbalanced. Professional twist-lock speaker sockets are provided to ensure every drop of output power gets to your loudspeakers.The rear panel is also where you'll find the switches that enable iNUKE amps to work in either dual mono, stereo or mono bridge mode. A built-in crossover switch enables the amp to operate in biamp mode, sending low frequency content to passive subwoofers, while the high frequency output is channeled to fullrange loudspeakers (CH1>100 Hz / CH2

Value

Sporting massive output ratings, lightweight Class-D technology, an equally lightweight price tag, and all the amenities a professional audio engineer could ask for, Behringer iNUKE amplifiers are serious amps for the most demanding applications.

My PA system is a tri-amped set of EV-MT cabinets running in stereo. When the sub amp started failing, I began looking for a replacement. The old amp was under-powered for our subs (each cabinet is loaded with 2 EVX-180B 1000w drivers in parallel, but the amp was only rated 1250w RMS @ 4 Ohm per channel), so I also took the opportunity to look for an amp that more closely matched the system capability. After lots of painstaking research, I finally decided on the Behringer iNuke NU6000.I was a little apprehensive at first, because I've owned Behringer gear in the past and haven't had much luck with it. They seem to be working hard to change their "disposable gear" reputation though, and after a problem with a bad batch of diodes in their initial production run (not Behringer's fault), the iNuke series has been getting consistently good reviews. The review at http://forum.speakerplans.com/behringer-inuke-nu6000-vs-kam-kxd7200-bench-tested_topic69202.html is what convinced me it's a decent amp. Plus, given the fact that the next closest amp with similar specs was twice the price and I'm a broke musician, I had to give Behringer another shot.I received the amp quickly (gotta love how quickly zZounds gets stuff out the door) and got it hooked up. It's not a good-looking amp by any means - it's bubbly and bright and clashes with everything else in the rack - but that isn't really important. What IS important is its performance, and so far, it has been great. I've got nearly double read more the headroom that I had with the old amp, it sounds good, it runs cool, and weighs next to nothing (it knocked almost 60 pounds out of my rack).The bottom line is that as long as it holds up to touring life, this is a good amp at a great price, and is worth checking out.
