Manufacturer's Description for Behringer PMH1000 12-Channel Powered Mixer with FX (400 Watts)

Behringer PMH1000 12-Channel Powered Mixer with FX (400 Watts)
Though the PMH1000 is our most compact console-style powered mixer, it also boasts a comprehensive layout. It features 12 channels (4 mono + 4 stereo) plus stereo tape returns--and two of the stereo channels have additional mic inputs, giving you the capacity to handle small bands or events with several microphones plus various playback devices. Its 400 Watt CoolAudio amplifier delivers the power and flexibility for a wide variety of house and monitor speaker configurations.

With our revolutionary CoolAudio amplifier technology you get enormous power, incredible sonic performance and super-light weight delivered in an ultra-compact mixer that is nearly half the weight of conventional powered mixers.

Adding to the list of 'big-mixer' features are: our awesome XPQ 3D surround sound effect, the integrated Voice Canceller which removes vocals for karaoke applications, a stereo 7-band graphic EQ with FBQ Feedback Detection, dual 12-segment LED output level meters, stereo power amp inserts and Phones/Ctrl R output with dedicated level control for headphones or powered monitors.

The PMH1000 features 6 balanced low-impedance mic inputs (4 are state-of-the-art IMP 'Invisible' Mic Preamps) with low-cut filter and additional channel inserts. All channels feature high-quality 60-mm logarithmic faders for exact level control, input level trim controls, monitor and FX sends, signal and peak LED indicators and channel mute buttons. The dedicated CD/Tape input lets you connect a line-level stereo source while the standby switch instantly mutes all of the mic input channels, so you can play music during your breaks without having to change the fader positions and lose your mix. The super-rugged carrying handle makes it easy to transport while professional Speakon (r) connectors ensure outstanding performance and reliable connection. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Behringer products.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "Over-featured - Under-powered"

Sound: This board has a very clean and clear presence through the Peavey PR 12's I'm using. However, it's very under-powered. I don't understand wattage ratings completely (like a lot of acoustic musicians), but the 600 watts is somewhat misleading. That only happens if you bridge the two sides of the amp (300wx2) to one speaker. If you're pushing two 8 ohm speakers, you actually only get 150 watts per side. Whatever the problem is, there is virtually no head room at the gain knob, the channel level or the main level. I tested some Yamaha AS 312's and they were even weaker. No bass response at all with this mixer/amp. I've added an old Altec preamp for 2 vocal channels and an Ashly compressor for my 2 acoustic guitars and it helps beef up the power considerably. Feature: Lots of great effects on this mixer - cathedral, small room, stage, concert hall, etc. The ambience effect sounds best for the acoustic stuff I do. The FX feature is easy to see and use. The general layout of the mixer is very ergonomically satisfying - much more so than the boxy PA heads that look like guitar amp heads. Quality: The constructions seems very solid, even though the unit is incredibly light ( a plus for a 50+year-old player!). A gig bag or road case is probably a good idea. Value: I think it's a fair price for the quality. Manufacturer Support: None needed yet The Wow Factor: Aesthetically and ergonomically, this mixer is very appealing Overall: This mixer suits my needs for now - acoustic duo, 2 guitars and/or keys. I bought this powered mixer based on research and reviews - and the reputation of Behringer. I did not want another powered mixer that resembles a guitar amp head. Love the layout and features. I'm very disappointed in the weakness in the power department and feel that the 600 watt rating is either incorrect or intentionally deceptive. My 60-watt 1966 Fender Bandmaster can peel paint off of walls when the volume is at "3"! This 600 watt mixer is loud only when every level is cranked to "10" - mains, gains, and channels! If this mixer were lost or stolen, I would probably not replace it with another. I would go research some more and maybe pay a little more for a more powerful unit.

Sound: Preamp section, FX, everything just nice.....just ridiculously underpowered. I think Behringer deliberately lied about this one....but you get what you pay for......I have to buy a separate power amp just to play country to a hundred people (QSC 1850HD Rox!). I won't even use the Behringer to power a couple of monitors.....it turns itself off if you push it even a little....far better off with a Peavey XR-600....even if it weighs a ton! Feature: All the right features, and they all work really, really well. I'v had this albatross for over a year, and it still works anyway. The effects are great, it has little headroom, but I can work with that. The laugh a minute power amplifier is my main heartache here. Ease of Use: Easy to use.....unless you try to push it...then it turns itself off....far better than imploding.......probably. Quality: It has held together...within its tiny limits. I baby it, because I am afraid it will fall to pieces....but it hasn't. Value: I should have spent more on a peavey or mackie.... Manufacturer Support: I think they mean well....I think the preamp section is a great value, and well designed....pity they lied so miserably about the power...the only way this boat anchor will make listed power is by running it at ten percent total distortion...instants before it turns itself off before catching on fire......... The Wow Factor: It looks great, feels wonderful, is easy to operate.....well designed.....it still is semi useless. This would work well for an acoustic guitarist with on vocal mic...maybe with a tape deck...playing to a packed crowd to twenty people. Overall: It is useful only as a six channel mixer........and seems reliable...within its limited limits.
