All user reviews of 4/5 for the Behringer Truth B2031

The Behringer B2031a Truth Acitve Monitors give you a great sound and will make your mix better. I was actually really surprised when I first came across these monitors for the first time. Because Behringer isn’t known for their monitors but these are great. The low response on these is very accurate, many people purchase monitors that have the “boom” in them . When you mix in those monitors with that extra low end it creates a very muddy mix that you wont even think is muddy because your speakers make it sound good. The Behringer B2031A give you a great accurate low end that will make your mix sound great and sound great in other systems as well after you mix in these.

SOUNDS

As far as the highs go, the frequencies are very natural. The sound is a very comforting sound that is very easy on the ears which allows you to mix for longer periods of time and allows you to get a better overall mix without your ears aching from the high end sounds and frequencies.

OVERALL OPINION

The Design of these are very clean, they will sit just perfectly in your personal home studio or home setup that you have for mixing. These are also extremely easy to use, just plug them up to your audio controller set both monitors to the same level and even if you are room isn’t treated right you can still get a great mix because for some reason the sound still comes out very clean in empty rooms.
Overall these are great,and I had zero problems with them because most monitors that aren’t expensive wont last you a very long time. I still have these and use them from time to time for some referencing and they are my go to monitors when I mix those punchy baselines.

The features are great. Dialing down the high or the low freq. with a simple switch is great for set-up aspecialy with abnormal studio shapes.

Price paid: 60,000 yen

Set-up for the novice will be easy, as the manual has full diagrams and indept explanations.

SOUNDS

At first I did feel these were very close to the makies. After a while using these though, I found that the bass would sometimes be a little misleading and the highs would be a bit splashy. But having said that, I must say that you can compansate for this by occasionaly running your mix through another system (eg car stereo, hi-fi). Also they do tend to be fatiging.

OVERALL OPINION

I noticed a slight rattle in one of the woofers. Strangely though, after cranking the things until the limiters switched on, the rattle has mysteriously disapeared! Hasn't come back since either. mmmm!

I would rather the mackies! But for the money I can't find anything to compare. Get them if you are on tight budget. You will not be dissapointed.
