All user reviews for the Behringer Ultrabass BX1200

120 watts, yes, but 12 "is quite limited, do not be fooled by his big wattage to think that, for example, it is 2 times more than 60 watts of another brand ...

UTILIZATION

Super simple, you can not ask for a better amp anyway ...

SOUNDS

Never had the chance to hear (see next section)

OVERALL OPINION

I wanted to buy this amp. I went into the first store (Archambault) for essailler and watch the prices, decided not too. The copy on display was not working, it was plugged in, lit up but no sound came out. The seller can not find either the cause told me to come back, they would install a new demonstration shortly. Having nothing else to do, I went to another music store a little less focused public (Steve's). I plug the amp, the light does not illuminate when the switch is "on". I asked a salesman, he gives a punch on the top, the light comes out and a buzz, no bass sound. The seller then leaves a "Again?" desperate. A young death metal patiently to speak to the seller about a skyscraper that takes advantage to slip his band's bass player had a bad experience with a Behringer amp when it broke down on stage (the amp, you understand). I dream of the day I can hear the sound of an amp Behringer and by then I bought a fender in place, the less powerful for the same price, but very good groove and I never had the lower "bad luck" with him ...

(You'll note in passing that on many reviews on other sites people complain of multiple heart attacks and cancers of the amp, like what the misfortune is perhaps not always story of chance, so I put a meager "1" ... think twice before buying this product ...)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since I
I like it a lot because when I plug my asse above, ia sound comes out!
I tried the 100 before rumble but for value for money and power (the rumble is 1.5 times higher with 20 watts and less) and connect, I preferred this one ...
With the experience I would do without this choice problem ... I find just a little too sensitive ... its knobs and cprail, the previous opinion is a bit abbusé given, you do not Qure the amp and you did not even try ... :-S I've never had any problems AVC ...

SEE SPECIFICATIONS

UTILIZATION

Simple
manual bof

SOUNDS

No bass
used alone, the obligation to thoroughly Knob low to have some kind of bass sound.
coupled with an external bass cabinet that can be done

OVERALL OPINION

Users of this amp for a year.
good value
amp book for beginners
the direct output of the amplifier to a mixer is zero (the super saturated)

a good amp for beginners but has absolutely avoided for frequent use in concert
the 120watts announced the appointments are not you spend 50% of the power problem of saturation on big bass.
to combine with a external enclosure for an acceptable sound

Everything has been said in other comments, no need to return to this point

UTILIZATION

The setup is fairly simple, I found my sound fairly quickly, the manual, having never opened any idea

SOUNDS

I find the sound is more than adequate for an amp of this price, as I play the bass and I use I rule differently, but generally are low to keep up a good sound, I use little ultrabass function, I find the amp is fairly versatile, can play anything with a slight tendency to saturate when pushed, but nothing horrible, so bad in my six-string passes without problem, even if a HP 15 "would be more appropriate I think, the sound is honest

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for over a year, I'm really happy, value price (200euros on thomann) is really good, to find an amp of this power at this price is unique, it has performance very is correct, and if I had to do this would be the choice without hesitation.

Note: The possibility of connecting two basses at the same time (one on the active input on the passive) to small horse is nice

See below

UTILIZATION

Very easy, the sound is very decent (depending on what we look like her!), The manual ... I have not yet had to watch it ...

SOUNDS

I play at home alone or with a battery and a guitar (the cellar), sometimes on stage (interior): nothing to say. I use a Squier MB-4. It can take many different sounds when you can play with those knobs and the bass. a caveat: I use the qd ultrabass - hear the effect "ultrabass" - it responds poorly to certain frequencies. But hey, that's Agenda detail ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year. Unbeatable value for money (as we do not seek perfection or sounds of legend). I tried his little brother before 60W. But no other amps in the same price range. (They are rare to have the same performance).
Under the same conditions PECUNIARY, I would immediately make the same choice. With more money, I would look more powerful.

Everything has been said, 120w, 2 channels, eq 4bandes + shape, octave, conenct ultra complete. kickback (can be switched back). approx 20kg

UTILIZATION

Use very standard

SOUNDS

My opinion is somewhat apart because I use this amp with a bass (never tested with an electric bass). I'm in a register rather jazz.
I use the amp for almost a year and I am very satisfied.

I get to have in any situation good sound with my bass (Piezo cell directly connected to the amp). I'm depending on the situation to make some apoint equalization and especially find the right position of the button shape.

I do not know precisely what this button (in terms of sound) but it's very effective.

OVERALL OPINION

What is important for a bass that have a certain neutrality in the amplification (do not smother the mid / treble). Also most bass amps gives a very poor (electric bass sound) with a double bass. With the Behringer was a good response curve (with some slight eJust) which is well suited. This is probably why some are led to say it lacks bass (actually it was mainly the treble this which is not the case with other bass amps).

The size of HP (12 ") is not a problem for the bass or just people tend to rather look for HP to 12 see 10 or 8". It would seem that they be better able to reproduce the attack basses (too mvt surface to a 15 ").

That is the price paid (211 € at Thomann) it is very good for my bass (compared to the vast majority of bass amp). on the other hand, to be honest there are much better (I dream of a photo acoustic coda ... to 1500 €). But it's clear I keep my behringer until I can not afford the very high level (ca could last). I would do without hesitation that choice!

You can have a very good sound with lots of settings! I use it for a year at first I thought not in the right sound etmainteant I'm very satisfied!

UTILIZATION

Nothing more simple, I say STOP those CRITIK BEHRINGER kan because it is the price di voi tt c ke on shit, I'm easy adjustment of the metal and I easily found the sound Slap and Pick!

SOUNDS

It should nikel has my style, it has 120 watts but not over pushed FAUS! I play with a frank aria pro and amp c pa ki sor the Move me his bass!
one little low nivo pa ke se mean el dream but I strated mid pleasure much!

OVERALL OPINION

- For how long have you been using it?
- What thing do you like most/least about it?
- Did you try many other models before getting this one?
- What is your opinion about the value for the price?
- Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...

Behringer Cheers!!
and with experience I would say no because with experience we rpend necessarily bigger! (Svt 4 pro)

We will not repeat everything, 120W, transistor, HP aluminum (with an angle impressive, nothing to do with my marshall B200) provided good connectivity, but it is not here so I can not detail

UTILIZATION

Pretty simple config, settings do not have a huge range of action (I think especially in the phase and ultrabass I wish I could push a block). the manual ... uh, I know, I read the stuff not as a rule, an amp is an amp.

SOUNDS

Aaah the sound! fits me very well, we can have a sound slap ... Now I understand that AC is not suitable for blues-rockers.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it by repeating since 1 year, I am not using mass effects, at least it works well without taking the head, very good value in my opinion. and given that I will be tilted back if I buy something bigger

See below

UTILIZATION

-Configuration is simple, quickly obtained a good sound without breaking the head
-The manual, I do not know jle pa read: d

SOUNDS

It has suited my style of music (melodic death metal / grindcore)
I played with a bass Peavey Millennium BXP 4c
-Filter shape is very practical, every time I play with the filter enabled, the function ultrabass is fun, but does not always sound good round and it limits the mess

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 year
Personally, I find that one of his best qualities is undoubtedly the filter shape
-The price / quality ratio is very good for less than 250 euros was a good amp 120watts
-With the experience I do not make the election again and feel my amp in the upscale (ampeg-mesa/boogie)

on the other hand I would point out that anyone who reviews behringer should not, for 250 euros one should not hope to have the slap of his life! and I find strength level combos behringer take much more than the road!

Bass Amplifier 120watts transistors.
2 jack inputs (low pr): - 1 activate
- 1 passive

full output at the rear. Already stated avt.
Shape function, and ultrabass

UTILIZATION

Simple configuration, no need manual ^ ^

SOUNDS

It suits my style of music, good for rock music.
The ultrabass is a little "rough" but the function shape is not bad.

OVERALL OPINION

- For how long have you been using it? 2 years
- What thing do you like most/least about it?
Is a stupid little thing, but it's not bad, it can be put back through the manufacturing process. It is quite heavy for a small amp.
- Did you try many other models before getting this one? not
- What is your opinion about the value for the price? very good value for money
seriously, I hesitated at first, I thought ... yeah ... it's behringer but it is really worth. 120 watts for only a few euros at thomann! To be taken without hesitation, is NOT the Sea * e!
- Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? I would take the range may be over. Finally, no, I think I could not because I'm more bass ^ _ ^!
But if I was rewriting, I would resume behringer without hesitation.

Transistor amplifier
Power 120W (a little light anyway)
lots of connectivity (see behringer.com)
4-band EQ, 2 channels, Shape Filter and Ultrabass Effect
active entry and passive entry

UTILIZATION

Simpler configuration
There's just turn the knobs until you find his sound.
I do not have the manual but it is useless, the amp is very easy to handle.

SOUNDS

Fits perfectly to my style of music (post punk, rock, coldwave)
Used with low and PLO Spector Squier P-Bass
Coupled to Behringer V-amp, I get a terrible sound and varied, all of its TPES are accessible.

OVERALL OPINION

-Used for 1week.
The 2-input passive and active, the ultrabass, the shape
Peavey tnt-115 and the behringer ampeg B3 and puts them slap
Value-terrible price: 100 € the amp, nothing to say
Pb-free, I make this choice for the same budget

Transistor amplifier
120w - worth about 90 ...
Holes everywhere output to baflles towards tuner, etc.
4-band EQ, 2 channels, Shape Filter and Ultrabass Effect
2 entry, active and passive

UTILIZATION

You branch and it was done, the sound is cool is not MarkBass but it happen is not the same budget ...

The manual is quite sufficient, but is useless as well, an amp is an amp ...

SOUNDS

I play with an old working (Cort Action), a custom passive (PB) ... and it's cool!

I use a bass overdrive pedal Ibanez PD-7, EHX - Chorus - Nano Clone ...

The shape and cool the ultrabass is useless, they probably wanted innovated, we've failed

OVERALL OPINION

Since May 2008 when I buy a particular OCCAZ for 110 euro, 2006 ...
Not bad, we have done a little on the 120w and the ultrabass, but I use it back on stage, and the house to cool, it is more than enough ...

I hesitate to do again the choice, because it's cheap, but I'd like a more powerful and better quality ...

Already said.

UTILIZATION

No problem to use, basically ...

The possibility of the switch is interesting.

SOUNDS

So there you have before you the only bass amp that has no bass! It was beautiful in every corner set we get out of it, this is my first amp and for the price I could not get better, I'm satisfied, but since I tried again, ouch!

It speaks for itself, I now use it for my sound with electronic drums in "troubleshooting" but because he really is there anything else: his pan.

OVERALL OPINION

Well to start, then to flee!

On a possibility of having electronic connection and RAS. Well done, 2 channels with foot pedal to change. One channel has a `bell filter. The Octaver is fun and not work too badly. Possibility to connect a CD player or other RCA connectors on.

UTILIZATION

No problem for the user manual.

SOUNDS

A low level sound is good. As soon as you push the fine level, the sound turns and become very aggressive in the midrange. To resolve the problem I use the bell filter its negative maximum on Frequencies medium but for the strong level that is not enough.

OVERALL OPINION

Cheap, but limited in the highest levels. At the

Solid-state amp.
Rated at 120 watts... 90 real watts...
Many connectors (speaker out, tuner out, etc.)
4-band EQ, 2 channels, Shape filter and Ultrabass effect
Passive and active inputs


UTILIZATION

Just plug into it and that's it! The sound is good... Of course, it's not a MarkBass but the price isn't the same either...
The manual is comprehensive but useless: it's a bass amp!


SOUNDS

I play an old active Cort Action, a passive Custom PB.
I also use an Ibanez PD-7 overdrive pedal, and also an EHX Nano Clone chorus effect.
The Shape filter is cool, the Ultrabass function is useless: perhaps they wanted to introduce something new but they failed!


OVERALL OPINION

I bought it secondhand in May, 2008. The amp was made in 2006...
It's a good product. The output power (120 watts, supposedly) and the Ultrabass function are disappointing. I use it as my monitor on stage and it's enough to play at home...
I'm not sure if I would buy it again. It's certainly not expensive but I would like more output power and a better quality...
