Sound: There is a little bit of air on high volume (all amps have this) and if you absolutely try to blow the doors out of the studio, a little distortion. However, this is a great little amp in every way. It gives excellent reproduction at low to moderate volumes, plenty of power for practice and stage use, is attractive, rugged, and very easy to use. I played with the foot switch when I first got it but do not use it anymore. I do have a Boss MD200 for the few effects that I use occassionally (use it mostly for tuning than anything else). This amp gives me the sound that I like without all the extra periphereals i the way. I play a Fender Jazz through a Peavey 200 watt @ 8 ohms 1-18 2-10 cabinet, with an extra pair of 200 watt @ 8 ohm 10's on top. This amp pushes them all with no problem. If I need any more volume out front I run direct through the PA. Sound will change from cabinet to cabinet and from amp to amp and room to room. I would like to try it on a pair of 15's with a couple of 10's. My 18 has a very sharp roll off but pushes a lot of air which gives me a great feeling and fills the room with a nice bottom end. (Music should be experienced not just heard, eh!?!) The tone, presence, and punch is mostly from my 10's. Even on 2-10's or 4-10's it sounds great and feels good. I have used Sunn, Ampeg, Peavey, and Hartke. All of which cost considerably more and the sound is only slightly better in some and undistinguishable in others. For a straight bass player's amp, to get your foot in the door, or a dependable back up for practice and small gigs, this little fellow will do the job faithfully and in good fashion. You cannot go wrong for the price and you will be very pleased with your sound. Feature: The amp includes a foot switch for special effects. The Ultra bass sounds pretty cool but I never use it in the music that I play. The Shaping is nice and punchy, but I don't use it either as I set my tone and run the deep and bright switches as needed. I do have a DigiTech BP200 and run about 3 presets occassionally, but even here, I like my own sound and mostly use the processor as a glorified tuner with a volume control. I like the analog read out better than the LED's and would really love it if it could be hooked up to a good tuner. I like the simplicity of the head and tone controls, the amount of good clean power, and the ruggedness with which it was built, and the incredible price that I got it for. Quality: Yes. Very rugged and durable. Good heat relief. Very little distortion at full volume. Excellent reproduction at low to moderate volumes. No blemishes that I can find and it was well packed for shipping. I do depend on it. My Hartke 3500 head is in the repair shop and we are playing out every week end. I have not had the need to bi-amp as our stages and practice areas are small but this little amp gives me plenty of volume and push. However, I wouldn't mind having a second one for bi-amping, running a second stack of cabinets, or even as a back up for my primary. For more bottom or volume out front I use a direct line out to the mixer for our PA. I would give it about 10 years or better on the road. The road is very hard on equipment but this little fellow is as tough as they come. Value: Absolutely worth the price. Compares very well to any major name on the market. Manufacturer Support: No. The Wow Factor: I bought it because I was in a jam. No amp in my price range and a job coming up. It caught my eye by the simplicity of it's style and the power rating of the unit. The price was great, but I was holding my breath on the sound, until I finally plugged in. It is very practical, expandable, and affordable. I just want to make love to it all night long. I am very pleased. Overall: I will probably get another soon and would not hesitate to replace it with another BX3000T. If I were to change anything cosmetically it would be to make the face plate in a silver and black finish as opposed to the gold and black (it would match my equipment better) but it is beatiful just as it is. Quite frankly, I don't think you should mess with anything on this amp. But, let me know if you come up with a more powerful amp (say, an 800 Watt amp delivering 400 Watts to four speaker cabinets for $400). I'd like to be first in line to buy one.

SPOTLIGHT REVIEW

VERIFIED BUYER

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.

Sound: I play and or dabble in virtually all styles of music where an electric bass is appropriate. So far, there's not a tone I can't dial in to this amp. This amp sounds awesome through my Hartke Transporter cabs (1x15 & 2x10) with my American Fender Hot-Rodded P-Bass. It's plenty loud too. I haven't dared turn it up over 5 yet, for fear of shaking pictures off my walls. Feature: The EQ capabilities are very comprehensive. I haven't found an need for any external pedals or effects, except for my Digitech Bass Squeeze compressor. I guess if I had to wish for another feature, it would be adjustable compression. The Ultrabass feature is kinda fun to mess with, but not really practical. VU meter is really a sweet touch. Shape filter is the icing on the cake that makes this amp a tone wizard and the footswitch makes it easy to use. Quality: So far, it seems plenty durable. Nice carpety covering. My complaint is how loose the knobs are. Behringer should tighten those pots, and this would be a totally tight unit. Value: I did a lot of research looking for 300 watts in my price range. This was well within that range, and far more feature-packed than anything else out there. I already owned a Behringer mixer, so I knew it was good stuff. Just buy one, and if you become a bigshot later and get an Eden or something, this will be the sweetest backup amp you ever had. Manufacturer Support: Don't know yet. Hopefully I'll never know. The Wow Factor: This is a good looking amp. The gold face and VU meter are sexy features. Overall: I'm in love with this amp. Just writing this makes me want to go home and crank it up. Buy one. Quick, before they jack up the price!

Back to Product Information

Sound: Extremely versatile and unigue in a good way. Every bit as good or even better than my Ampeg combo. Amazing the sounds I can get out of it and LOTS of punch. Driving a Peavey 210 VTX and sounds great, would be a beast with a 15 below. I notice a hiss up close but I think it is mostly from my instrument. Ultrabass function is fun and can make some wicked sound. Feature: Foot pedal included, not sure if I will use it, but might in a certain situation. I like lots of EQ it has plus the shaping,deep and bright give it a multitude of possible sounds. Ease of Use: Just plug and play and fiddle around, its all good. I like front panel controls and connections. Manual is fine, learning curve is minimal. Quality: Looks as well made as any thing out there. Fit and finish are top notch. I would definitely use it on the road but that is not something that will happen. Seems totally dependable to me, like anything if you abuse it will get back at you at an unappropiate time. The worst thing i can find, which is really not a bad thing, is how easy the controls turn, probably designed that way. Value: This amp is at the top of the list in Bang For the Buck! Manufacturer Support: No problems and no need to contact them. The Wow Factor: Looks great not cheap. Would purchase again if lost. Overall: Totally satisfied with the product. The price/value ratio is thru the roof. WHY pay much more for something that does the same thing...amplify YOUR playing abilities. The people enjoying your music don't give a hoot if you paid $200 OR $2000 for your amp if they like what they are hearing. Overall, a great sounding inexpensive amp that can get the job done.

Sound: I use the behringer Ultra Bass to Amp up the speakers on the frequency coming from my mixer and digital recorder. The Ultra BAss is significant and sounds great. The morte power you push the faster the fan blows to cool it. It is very reliable to amp up your products. Feature: Yes, it comes with a footpedal. Quality: The prodcut is made well and has good looks too!. Value: A ggod price for a good product. Manufacturer Support: No! I have not had to use warranty on this product. One of the major important factors about AMPS are that Bi-Polart transistors absolutely hate heat. The Behringer has a cooling fan that spins faster to meet the demand depending on how much gain you are increasing to meet your needs. This is very cool to have and it will make the product indestructable at any point. The Wow Factor: Very eay to manage and operate. The controls are worthy and it is a great product. Overall: I'm content with my Behringer at the moment. 300 Watts is plenty supply.

SPOTLIGHT REVIEW

Sound: The sound from this amp is amazing. Good response everything. Not as beefy as an ampeg or carvin, but definetely a well-made amp. I love the sound of the ultrabass for a jaco-like sound with my fretless. Good biting mids, growling bass, and crisp treble. This amp would be good for recording or live. I use an behringer 4x10 aluminum cone cab with his head, and the sound is huge. I would highly recommend this amp to anyone wishing to buy it. Feature: This head comes with four features right on the head. Ultrabass, deep, bright, and shape. Ultrabass adds an octave, a Jaco-like sound. The deep boosts the bass, and the bright boosts the treble. Shape is basically an eq in one knob. I don't use any of them frequently but they are of good quality and perfect for the shaping of your sound. Although, I prefer the eq myself. Quality: This product is made pretty well. A nice carpet covering on it and a metal faceplate for the front of the head. Rubber corner covers to protect the carpet corners. Finish looks great-gold and black. No loose parts. Seems like it would be reliable on the road. The one bad thing about this amp is that the first day I had it, I tried to turn it off and it didn't work. It ends up that the power switch broke. The next day I went back and had it replaced for free. Other than that, a very reliable head Value: This head is the best deal you can find in bass heads. It's a steal, anyone thinking about buying this head, should definetely do it. Manufacturer Support: I have not needed to deal with Behringer yet. I hope I will never have to. I suspect that they would answer my questions as fast as they could. Overall: I hope to have this amp as long as I can lug it around. 300 watts is probably the most I'll need for a while, so I'll be holding on to this head for a long time. This is the perfect amp for an intermediate player looking to get a loud sound and cut through the mix. If it was stolen, I would probably buy another one, because it's the best deal you can get. I also like the retro VU meter.

Back to Product Information

Sound: This little amp has an incredible range of sounds available. Just dial in the frequency range you're looking for and go to work! You can have all the big round bottom of Paul McCartney, or the punch ring of Chris Squire. Feature: The built in chorus (Bassilator) is a neat little feature, as well as the 'shape', both of whice are controlled via the included footswitch. The Bassilator adds a doubling note one octave lower, which allows you to still get the low end thump while playing way up the neck. The Shape allows you to go from a 'rock' setting to a more pronounced 'jazz' setting at the press of a switch. Quality: I took the chassis out and put into a faux Vox AC-50 head, so the factory cosmetics didn't matter too much to me. But the build quality, inside the box, is great. Very heavy duty. Value: For the money, this is by far the best 300W amp available! It can rattly the walls and really keep the low end covered. Manufacturer Support: Never contacted customer support, hope I don't have to. The Wow Factor: I don't kow if this amp has any 'sex appeal', but I'd rather it be there than not! I'm quite impressed with it, and love gigging with it. Overall: I can't imagine looking for an amp to replace this one for a long time, and even then maybe just another of this model! It's a great amp to have, transport, and play through live.

SPOTLIGHT REVIEW

VERIFIED BUYER

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.

Sound: This has a great overall sound for the intermediate, semi-pro player. I play anything from Goth Rock to Funk, and I would say that it can be used for all styles of music. It has the ultrabass feature, which doubles the notes you are playing (used often in modern jazz and funk), and for the rock players, it has a deep bass function that gives you one hell of a deep tone and punch. Ampeg, eat your overpriced heart out! Feature: It includes a footswitch which allows you to switch between deep bass, ultrabass, or both. Very convenient. Quality: Great quality for the money. Value: This product has equal playability to that of Ampeg's bass heads. I would definitely place this among the same quality of excellence, minus the hefty Ampeg price tag.

Sound: This bass head is an amazing bass head. For the sound possiblities you have it is worth four or five times as much. Feature: The shape, bright, deep, and ultra bass functions on this head are amazing. It has a pedal to contorl the shape and ultra bass sounds. Its like haveing three sounds at your feet, all differnt all great. The bright might be the best though. When I turned it on I could slap my way through the best of my solos and it really could set its self apart from the guitarist. It is amazing. Quality: It looks great. It seems to be very durable. The pedal is sturdy and not made out of plastic. The fan in the back is not a wimpy fan that will wear down after awhile like you see in some heads now adays, it is more then efficent so you can be worry free all set. Value: for Two-Hundred bucks, it is impossible to beat. Manufacturer Support: Warranty was even to do, just fill out the card and mail it in. No problems with the head to complain about. The Wow Factor: The gold looks pretty cool. It fits perfectly on my two by ten, one by fifteen stack. Its great. Overall: I dont expect to go back to my old head. This head has me more then pleased. The Bright and shape functions are the best parts. The only thing that I would want differnt is the foot pedal to control more then just Shape and Ultra Bass, but include the deep and bright functions.

Sound: Unless you have the ears of a dog...very hard to tell the difference between this unit and other amps at two or three times the price. Feature: I use the ultrabass feature on some solos. The shape,deep,bright & eq all work well independently and in concert with each other. The VU meter is a nice feature to have when trying to optimize input/output levels with out clipping. Quality: Seems to be very well built, but I base that assumption on the fact that german-made products over the last several years seem to last forever (like a VW Bug..U just can't kill it!!!) Value: There is no doubt that to anyone who has playing for a while that Behringer is making it's statement in the market. Today's technology made very affordable. Manufacturer Support: I haven't had to contact them about the amp. Their web site is great..very informative, and the owners manual is very easy to follow. The Wow Factor: It's a contemporary looking unit..that's all Overall: I am planning to trade up to the new 450 watt model head. More power usually provides a cleaner/tighter sound...we'll see!!

Sound: I'm running this head through two Ampeg cabs- a 4/8 and a 1/15. The sound is strong, and muddied appropiately with the effects. Clear and loud w/o. Only problem is a loud hum... Feature: Ultrabass does add thump to low end, and the shapeing adds a growl I've not been able to produce with any other of my amps in the past. I'm still experimenting with it, though... Quality: I will continue to use my Ampeg B2 as my mainstay, but use this head for effects. I don't know whether it is going to continue this or not, but I've had a problem with not being able to turn the amp off- when I cut the switch off, nothing happens! Is this a harbinger of things to come with respect to the quality of the product? I hope not! Value: I had hoped it would be of better quality than it appears to be; for its price, however, I think it's what I should have expected! Manufacturer Support: Should this problem continue, I WILL seek redress from the manufacturer; at this point, however, I'm content to continue experimenting with it. The Wow Factor: It looks great! Carpet finish, nocely built corner 'hardware', quite attractive cabinet and control board. I especially like the use of the old-time needle type VU meter... am I telling my age now? Overall: I play in a rock band on weekends- a hobby. I wanted a backup amp, but already have an excellent cab set. I expect to use both amps, depending on the venue we're at and the sound I want, shich also affects which instrument I use. Shoul I lose it somehow, I would replace it very cautiously, if at all... simply for the two purposes of 1) backup, and 2) effects. I do wish I had had a better idea of its quality before buying it, but still hope it will serve my purposes.

Sound: The sound is definately great. the lows are awesome. just what you would expect from a bass head. The sub harmonics thing is pretty cool. it would be cool for a solo or somethin like that. THe only problem i have with them is that it doesnt pick up my open A note and the D note on my G string that well. It starts the octave effect but then just dies out. but that doesnt rele matter because you can just play the same note somewhere else on the bass and it will work then. Also when the bright feature and the shape feature are on at the same time, there is slight background hiss. but that can be avoided my switching the gain or the shape. The lows on this thing are incredible, and when you thing that thats as low as it gets,,, your wrong. the "deep" effect button brings it down even lower....... and if thats not enough.... the shape feature will make it even lower......... GREAT SOUND Feature: Shape- awesome for changing around the sound to what YOU want and not wat the head wants.... the foot control for this is very convenient. Deep- DOES WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE. AMAZING LOW END Bright- If you slap, you gotta have it. Ultrabass- Cool if you want to variate your sounds VU meter- good to have to let you know how your doing technically Limit- Tells you if youre exceeding the "LIMIT" but it only comes on if you hit the E string really hard, but it goes off right away. Quality: very tough. very rugged. very.................... Value: great price. only 200 dollars. i got mine for 180 though because i told the site that i bought it from that i found a cheaper price and then they beat it. So i'm happy. Manufacturer Support: "red unit to base, red unit to base, we need some support down here!" The Wow Factor: I have been wanting this amp head for the past few months once i read about it and heard about the demand. I was lucky to get mine because of a little secret plot that i was thinking up...AND IT WORKED! cant expose that though. Also it looks really awesome. Overall: I am very pleased with this amp head. I havent really been able to put it to its full potential yet because i live in an apartment and our neighbors complain about EVERY single noise they hear. Plus i just got it yesterday so i havent been able to jam with it with my friends

Sound: One Bad Mother (Hush Your Mouth) Adequate EQ,Power is more than I'll ever need. Mostly play small to Medium clubs.Used it outdoors a couple of times and it did a wonderful job there too. Feature: Yes it comes with a foot switch for ultrabass and shape, Ultrabass is a kick. It craps out below about a C but its a hoot to play the bass line an octave up and have the ultrabass double it an octave down and soetimes it sounds as though it gives you 2 down as well,since this is below human hearing I think it does. Can't place it on top of cabinet 'cause low frequencies make it walk. Quality: Pretty much its own road case. Variable speed cooling fan keeps it room temp all night. Without the heat breakdowns seem extremely unlikely. Value: The most bang( or should I say boom) for the buck bar none. Manufacturer Support: Haven't needed to. The Wow Factor: Looks good sounds good love the old style VU meter. Black is always cool. Overall: Love forever. May try an outboard EQ. This is so well made it will probably wear me out. Definitely the best solid state bass head I've ever owned, others were Traynor Cerwin Vega and Yechh peavey.

Music Style: pick one

Back to Product Information

Sound: Lots of flexibility. The Ultrabass is a bit over the top, my woofers really jump so that I am afraid to use it. Shape control is nice, but just straight out of th ebox with a tweal of the tone controls it sounds excellent for the price. Feature: Plenty of features for me. Footswitch is a nice touch, most manufacturers charge you extra for that if it's even offered. Quality: Nothing but quality as far as I can tell. Value: In short, this is the best value in a new bass amp that I have ever come across. I use it as a backup and I will have no qualms about playing a gig with it if I have to. Manufacturer Support: Not applicable. The Wow Factor: Extra effort to provide tone controls beyond what is standard. This makes it a very desirable amp! Overall: I don't think I will need to look any further for a backup amp. My main amp is a Euphonic Audio iAMp 800, which has much more power and hi-fi sound, but if that amp cannot be used the Behringer is a great alternative. It sounds as good as my old Hartke 4000 and cost less than half!

Sound: This is a realy good bass amp. Good sound quality even with flat EQ. Unfortunately it has a nasty HISS (not too loud but it exist) Feature: Manual, stick, footswitch. Great. Very well made, good materials used to build it. Quality: Will be 10 if knobs of EQ will be better. Is is only reason that I cut only one point. Value: no commente. Try to find cheaper amp at the same quality. No way! Manufacturer Support: "Today question to on-line support at www.behringer.com - today answer". Tres bien. Bardzo dobrze. Very very good. The Wow Factor: I think, that I'll buy another one if Behringer minimalize this Hiss, but I'm sure, they will. Worth this money (if you don't want to buy this amp in Poland) Overall: (+) very nice amp, light-wieght (ok, not heavy :)), simply tone control and modeling, easy-of-use (-) hiss at higher volumes
