Because in Behringer's case, it does. it's the nature of the design. Compare the specs. How that equates in the end subjectively is beyond the scope of this thread.byacey wrote:Why do you feel class H will lower the quality of the output signal?
Yup, they used to (badly) copy everything, but in the last couple of years, they have changed direction and started to innovate. The CMD1 line of midi controllers demonstrates this. If only they had started selling these controllers when they announced them rather than a year or 2 later when the whole market had moved on!! I guess they are discovering that it isn't easy to develop a product from scratchbyacey wrote:I won't argue with you about Behringer. They have the technical ability to even make a standard AB2 topology sound bad. They may be pulling up their socks lately, but they put out some pretty poorly engineered pieces of gear over the years. Many of them were simply poorly executed copies of other manufacturers gear. As an example, the EP1500 circuit is virtually identical to a QSC RMX1450.
The EP2500/4000 are a direct copy of the RMX2450 produced by Phonic as OEM for Behringer. Very good amp for the money...byacey wrote:As an example, the EP1500 circuit is virtually identical to a QSC RMX1450.

Yeah, ok, will do! I did notice last night when cleaning off the mud from the speakers that on my 2nd OT, not only had I forgotten to stick on the foam/topper and braces onto the back panel of the speaker, but I had also forgotten to stick in the tweeter array diffuserDJPhatman wrote:Frik that, MATE!

Yes, I have to use the 2 pole Speakon plugs if I want to stand them upright -the corners provide enough clearance for the Speakon connectors and cables. I will rarely be using them in this configuration though. I wanted to use a sunken dish connector, and the best clearance for this was on the bottom. I still had to chop away some of the dish though to get it to fit. I didn't have enough time to do this on the 2nd sub before the party, hence the bare wire and connector block bodge88h88 wrote:I notice you've got the Speakons connected at the bottom of the OTs...!
Agreed. Though the EP4000 is a direct, ripoff copy, it's a really good copy. It's dependable "old style iron." Just remove the pointless "front air filter" that actually just impedes the exit of air from the chassis b/c the fan blows back to front. They obviously did not think that part through! Still, great amp.Bas Gooiker wrote:The EP2500/4000 are a direct copy of the RMX2450 produced by Phonic as OEM for Behringer.

the Otops sounded beautiful! The t30s weren't bad either! The other rig was a pretty large rig and I was worried that my rig would sound tiny when compared to theirs... I needn't have worried. Ran it flat out all night and it just ate it up. Sounded so sweet I am very happy... Thanks bill!

). The Piezos can take 30V each (=30V per 7 piezo element therefore 60V for the whole array), so they are not a worry. 
" answer, but is there any give? If it IS only the thermal limit that I need to observe, I may push them a little harder (40V?) at the next party. It is in an inside location, so I will probably need that extra top once the subs are eating 50V (and no more 
) whilst corner loaded and v-plated (can't wait! 
)
