Behringer Ultrabass BXL3000A

300-watt amplifier,
Hp 15-inch aluminum-cone (which makes a big difference from the "simple" BXL3000 (without A))
-2 Channels a "normal", the other distortion or just a little more boost, with a function "shape" for "awesome sound."
7-band graphic equalizer-, FBQ Spectrum Analyzer (we will see below), a master, a gain for each channel (the one on channel 2 is used for the intensity of the distortion, there's a level for that channel knob ), a compressor, a ultrabass (low octave)
One-line input
Two-output direct (one in the other XLR jack)
An entry-cd etc ... little use given the presence of the amp in the bass (it's a bass amp at the same time ^ ^)
An insert-effect (in / out)
A significant and ever-pedal switch for channel and ultrabass. might have been expected to be able to switch the compressor, but hey let's not quibble either.

UTILIZATION

Nickel is an amp at the same time so there's no way to turn a 36 knob. The graphic equalizer is super convenient to have the sound you want.
The FBQ Spectrum Analyzer is fun but not very useful: When the triggers, the frequencies of the equalizer shine more or less intensely, making it possible to adjust them.
It said its own when you want it totally useless. This allows just beginning to understand graphic equalizer slowly (yes it's been a lot of buttons at once ^ ^)

SOUNDS

Ben strength, with 300 watts, not expect an amp room ^ ^
The Master set to "1", the walls tremble already ^ ^ so no worries for concert rehearsals and cafes, even a drummer quite violent.
It's not good after all, it's quite normal that the sound is a powerful 300 watts, yet it must follow that the quality!

Well for now I have absolutely not been disappointed, a huge presence in the bass and treble in the aluminum cone. I tested in stores BXL3000 and I remained very skeptical because it sounded horrible and lacked slap in Treble, with its very deaf. The BXL3000 A is totally different, the HP really changes everything.
By digging a little EQUAL mediums and activating the compressor, we take it easy for marcus miller or flea ^ ^
From there, and given the flexibility of the equalizer, all sounds are possible, jazz, funk, to heavy rock or otherwise with a large presence in the midrange, this amp can do absolutely everything.

Personally I play a little bit of everything (funk, rock, metal, pop, jazz) and I've always been able to find the sound I needed, I usually dig the mediums with a large presence in the low and the acute, activating the compressor if necessary.

Another good point is that it does not alter the sound of the bass, I tested several basses over and each time the difference is obvious.

In terms of effects, ultrabass is nice, the amp is specially designed to have an excellent record in the low (see serious ^ ^) notes an octave below do not interfere with absolutely no HP, which is quite rare to be emphasized. This is original enough to slap the game, it adds a lot of presence.

The distortion (or channel 2) is still light enough to it, I find it unfortunate that we can not push a little further, she lacks a bit of fishing. To be used from time to time, but you will not sound like a muse hysteria.

Needless to say, with 300 watts, it is widely be repeated without pushing the amp into a corner. I have tested for the moment that position until the middle volume, and it still not saturated. My ears are not ready to go further for now ^ ^

OVERALL OPINION

It is now a month since I have this amp, I have not tested in concert but it is repeated more than enough, once again its presence in the bass is simply staggering, and the aluminum cone goes back quite a bit treble.
I was torn between this amp and a fender rumble 100, and I must say that I am not disappointed, for the same price (or less) there's no photo.
I paid 290 at the site of a German dealer (about 350 in store), and is an excellent value for money. I prefer it even to a ampeg on which I played in the box again.
The only downside (not negligible) is its weight: 27 kg, with just one handle on top, it's very fair to take him!

UTILIZATION

SOUNDS

In fact I put a notice in order to discuss the overall opinion, but I agree with almost everything said in the opinion ets Previous.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about a year
I particulirement .... all ..... is small, has returned in the trunk of a car and do nothing deoit, nor its quality or strength.
I was looking for a small amp that is nearest possible to a wholesale power and quality! I went on a crusade, I almost tried everything according to my specifications (small, powerful and qualitj'avais time j'tais not press and tried many brands by typing in up, starting with AMPEG, but as I dj the big stuff, I would not put too much money in this amp destiny to "small" scnes. Then I softphone knowledge of the brand BEHRINGER dealer heartedly. It the silent aluminum cone, still packed nine, I tried and convinced by the quality I pushed to see the volume .... . I left with him and pay less than 350 euros. Many "collgue" laughed at me when I told them that I bought from! Today they laugh less when they see they NWPD 3 6 times more than me in the leading brands for the same and sometimes less. That would be crazy to dpenser more! I plan to sell even my "heavy cavalry" because I no longer use him. For and against as in the opinion Previous, there is a point ngatif: weight and grip that is unqiue trs wrong place and no comfortable grip, but hey, we forgive him this default with respect to its quality. I would do without this choice hsiter and even if I had to repurchase the same to him come to grief because I sought a lot! As always I advise not to rely on brands that sit on their Notore but to go try. Before leaving I have try with prcise diffrent low trs, the only thing is that I am concert on 1.5 volume knob while in passive and it needs to be 2.5 times too strong

The Behringer ULTRABASS BXL 3000A is a bass combo whose CHARACTERISTICS are:

- 300 Watts 4ohms
- HP 15 "BUGERA (TM) with aluminum cone!
- 608 x 466 x 418 mm and 27.45 kgs
- 2 channels
- Functions and distortion ultrabass
- Systm FBQ
- Musical limiter

UTILIZATION

So to start, there are plenty of I / O jack ^ ^:
- At the front: an input (hopefully: p) - 1 headphone
- At the rear: line out 1 - 2 fx insert (1 send, 1 return) - a football sw
- Still has the rear, but not jack: 1 DI out and a CD in LR

There's also a lot of knobs:
- One for rgler the volume of the channel 1 (ie the channel "all bte")
- Three channel 2, which is the saturated channel: volume between the effect of intensity, volume "when the effect is appliququot; (because yes, the volume increases when the high effect is activated)
- One for the compressor
- One for the ULTRABASS
- A Master volume (yes, finally ^ ^) for rgler the output volume of the bte

In the middle of the front, the equalizer with FBQ 7 faders.

APRS test, the knobs are, I think, very prcis, and we get easily the sound we want. The faders are also prcis, but it's not even millimtre PRS against ... There is a small "click" to block them in a central position, not bad. There is a way to leave them on (small solid red Lumire on each) or choose to let light in terms of what we play. L on the other hand, you have to play for them FORT ragissent and light ...

The two main effects (distortion and ultrabass) can be activated by pushing the corresponding buttons, which when activated s'clairent, but also thanks to a two switch pedals supplied with the amp, it's really nice. They plug into the FOOT SW jack the rear.

There are the Insert FX that are practical enough to add a multi-purpose or even without a tuner mute out.

The manual is short (for each language eh, because while it is still same pais ... ^ ^) and could not be more clear.

A real problem arises in cons: There is only one fist on top, and it's really hard move ... (That's why I put 8)

SOUNDS

I find the sound really good, knowing that I spend an Ashdown Behringer 300W 30W ah a ...

The sound "neutral" sounds really good, serious as acute, then there's the same when cne alu ...

The channel "saturquot; gives really good too, even if AC is not worth an effect pedals SPECIFICATIONS (but it seems pretty empty)

The ULTRABASS is nice, ca REALLY gives the octave and more ...

Power is terrible! I had to push back Ashdown (10) to cover a battery. Now, even in the rpt, the master of 2 - 2.5 is more than enough to cover the battery.

Good to know: I play mainly Mtal / Rock on a Cort C5Z (=> 5 strings)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about one month, we'll see over time ...

330 pay for a product from a reseller (so probably a lot cheaper on the net), I think it's really a great deal!

J'espre he's not going to sitt lcher me ^ ^

Obviously, I would do this choice, but hey, we'll see in a year or two ...

(I'm not 10, because I do not think that something is declare it perfect ^ ^)

300 W transistors
output jack and XLR line out, effects loop
2 channels: one clear, one disto
PDAL one can switch from one channel to another, and to initiate the ULTRABASS
between cd

UTILIZATION

The 7-band equalizer allows you to sculpt the sound quite easily.
The manual is clear

SOUNDS

I play Celtic music, was suitable for himself and deep enough.
That said, the HP aluminum cash out the slap ...
I play with a low STAGG BFL 300 (fretless) (read my review for this bass)
I just put the strings D'Addario chrome mesh dish ... it is with this amp.

The Stagg 300 as an instrument "entry level" (however correct for a price trs infrieur 200), I guess pretty well what this toy can send with a low medium or high range!

Before I was playing on a AMPEG B2: when looking for the trs hot soup on BXL is less comfortable, but trs on: lowering the bridge pickup volume and adjusting the curve of EQ, even in reggae is done!

no complaints to make, so the sound!

OVERALL OPINION

I've had four months.

What I like most: Reserved power (even with just one drummer ct nerv has held the pond!) The relatively Reduces the Faculty to lay flat or inclined as a return of scne.

Cons: ONLY one fist on top. Weight (27 kg) combined with the volume and shape a bit specially: I recommend to eat before the wrestle down stairs.

One regret: the footswitch for channel change and / or octave ultrabass tmoins is not equipped with lights that are on the faade. When in doubt, NCESS to turn their backs to the public to see if the distortion or ultrabass in office.
Incidentally, the ULTRABASS, I compare a one octave, with the default inhrents; dcrochage signal NCESS a strong attack on pain of flanchage.

Warning: when the bb is the rototo, attention eardrums. During the last concert, I had put in a position inclined to get along. Rsultat: Nause of beginners. it sends really strong through the membrane of the ALU HP, so do not stay in front of the mouth of the dragon! has reminded me of the 70s, when we returned five hours in the morning 'with ears that vibrated more ...
Tip: During the scales in empty rooms long reverb time, I put my bag and my jacket derrire the amp, to absorb some of the trs low frequencies sent by the 3 winds Rear ... otherwise, Reduces Power even has stuck pretty ... Ditto for those who want a "cabaret" ...
I recommend digging on the EQ, the band of 63 Hrz, for security for the ears.

Quality-price ratio: trs good amp for a "road" (master 1.5, 5 max gain, I can see myself playing in a bossa club. Master 7, as vrifier the organizer is ensured "broken windows" ... Master background: Nan-nan-nan!

Exprience with it the price there's no picture: I would do this choice.
