Behringer amps are notorious for just breaking for no reason what so ever.

My buddy jake had the BX1200 and it just sopped working one day. $200 estimated repair, he just dished out a bit more and got an ampeg combo instead.

no man some of them are really good, just make sure that you sign up for the warrente. that way if they do break, you can get it replaced.

You should be able to.

That said, don't trust Behringer speakers.

I'd pimp out their amps and FX, but never trust a Behringer speaker.

It's a head problem, and please ignore all of the people who shouted that behringer is notoriously breakable.

Behringer combos are.

The rest of their gear is not.


Get in touch with their support, k?

I've had bad experiences with Behringer speakers. They are quite breakable.

Their bass speakers anyways. Never had any problems, or have really heard any problems regarding their guitar cabs.

How many bad experiences? You may have had a lemon.

A few, put it that way.

The worse was when the third time I used the amp/cab...not even that high on volume mind you...it blew on me.

The speakers or the amp? There's a huge difference, and countless other factors.

I've had a LOT of experience with this stuff, and it's always been reliable enough.

A Behringer you say?

That's why.
