Manufacturer's Description for Behringer PMH5000 20-Channel Powered Mixer with FX (800 Watts)
Behringer PMH5000 20-Channel Powered Mixer with FX (800 Watts) The PMX5000 is our top-of-the-line console-style powered mixer. This powerhouse features 20 channels (12 mono + 4 stereo), plus stereo tape returns, two 24-bit/46 kHz effects processors with 99 great-sounding Virtualizer presets each, two monitor paths and extremely flexible I/O options. It's jam-packed with everything you need for the most demanding sound reinforcement gigs like a 2 x 400-Watt (800 Watts bridged mode) CoolAudio amplifier to drive your FOH and/or monitor speakers.
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 depth and weight of conventional powered mixers.
Adding to the list of 'big-mixer' features are: our awesome XPQ 3D surround effect, stereo 7-band graphic EQ with FBQ Feedback Detection, dual 12-segment LED output level meters as well as faders for precise level control of mono, main 1, monitor 1 & 2 and FX1 & 2 send outputs. The dedicated mono output with adjustable low-pass filter can be used to feed an external subwoofer. Plus, there are Behringer's Speaker Processing function, stereo power amp inserts and a Phones/Ctrl R output with dedicated level control for headphones or powered monitors.
The PMH5000 features 12 balanced low-impedance mic inputs with state-of-the-art IMP 'Invisible' Mic Preamps plus balanced high-impedance line inputs for direct connection of line sources or high-output instruments. Its full-featured channel strips include input level trim controls, signal and clip LED indicators, ultra-musical 3-band EQs with semi-parametric mid control, dual monitor sends, dual FX sends, mute and PFL functions plus high-quality 60-mm logarithmic faders for exact signal level control. Mono channels also include low-cut filters, inserts for connecting external processors and A/B switching for selecting the 1/4 in. TRS or RCA input connectors (channels 13 - 16). The separate CD/Tape input lets you connect a line-level stereo source and the standby switch instantly mutes channels 1 - 12, 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.

"Good unit for the money"
Sound:
I have used this board for over 3 years now it. Haven't had any problems. Doesn't have the power, but for small gigs if seem to be fine. What I do for larger show use an external power amp for the Mains and the on board for monitors work very good
Feature:
Has good features like channel mutes, on 2 on board effects, effect to monitor. Subs out with Xover when using subs
Ease of Use:
It very easy to operate not like some boards you don't have to be rocket scientist to operate it!
Quality:
Seems work fine no problems so far had it over 3 years. But like any gig you better have a back I don't care if you have the best, its better to be prepared
Value:
I think is very good board for the money even if it doesn't have enough power. It likes to have 4 Ohm speakers on powered part of this unit. But even so for larger gigs you need a external power amp
Manufacturer Support:
They are very good about anwsering your email about questions
Overall:
I am very happy with unit it does it job very good. Was a little disappointed by 800 (400 X2) watt claim on the power section, but thats not RMS watt thats peck

"Look at something else before you decide to get this"
Sound:
The multiple channels and FX and other features are great. I enjoy using it as a non powered mixer. Not enough haed room. Have to put the gain quite high for certain situations. Not good for recordings. The sound from the pwer section is very weak and when our drums are playing the whole system will pull back with the LEDs clipping. Very under powered. We have now added a Yamaha power amp and it works great now. Dont use it without a power amp as the numbers on the mixer are very much overated. It sounds like 50w x 2
Feature:
Great features, especially the dual FX. Quite usefu we can use 1 FX for vocals and another for the instruments. I wish it had extra sends so that I could send to other processors.
Ease of Use:
The mixer is easy to use for me cause I have used much more complicated ones. Using the mixer is a breeze. The manual is quite straight forward and easy to use.
Quality:
Although it looks robust, the mixer failed on us once but then on it was ok. In any situation, its better to have a back up as I truly have no confidence in the product.
Value:
Value for money
Manufacturer Support:
No. dont know. Dont want to go there
The Wow Factor:
Looks really good like a Mackie
Overall:
I will not buy another one if it gets lost or broke. I actually wanted to get the PMH 2000 which I think has much more power than the PMH 5000.
