Almost really good

So for the price it's good value. It's loud, flexible and small, which is a real advantage sometimes. Definitely has the inputs etc but I think it's let down a bit by the sound. Then again it's not expensive and I loaned it out and had no complaints back. Seems robust too and has a nice built in carry handle on the top which I like. So marks off for sound but overall 5*

Louder then you think

I can fit the speaker in a small backpack and yet fill a whole classroom or a outdoor party for kids. Also if you do not have the space in the bag for a mixer this would do the job sometimes.

Pros: Compact, loud, has inputs and EQ.

Cons: Sound is rather mid-range strong, no bluetooth.

Quality sound as my personal monitor

I play acoustic instruments gigging , Fiddle, banjo and mandolin , I find this monitor great for bigger gigs where the main P.A system is blasting out the sound , also great as a public address at a small venue , 100% ??

Fantastic value

Great for monitoring, or even as a small PA. I use two for monitoring keyboards.

Much better than the clones

It's way more powerful than it looks. The input and output options are all you need. After trying some of the clone boxes, I came back to these, very good heavy quality.

Price-quality is great!

I use the monitor in a band and I have to admit it works great on stage! The price-quality ratio is great! I would recommend this device to anyone looking for a small personal monitor on stage.

Great for Foldback

I bought this item for foldback monitors for a church band. They are easier to set up and take less space than floor wedges. It is also good to mount them on mic stands so that the volume can be less intrusive into the main congregation space.

It is very easy to connect to the aux output of a range of mixers with either a jack or Xlr musicians and singers find it easy to use with a local volume control in easy reach noting that the mix is still done by the desk operator.

With many of the user being amateurs and volunteers this has to be simple for set up. The compact size is perfect to minimise storage space requirements.

Small but bold

For such a small speaker, it can be quite loud - I did use two as high frequency front boost at a small wedding reception (big fronts in the venue were old and bassy) - Behringer worked great.

Mounting on a mic stand in no time is great; adding a boom on top is a bit tricky though. Set of two is great as a keyboard player's feedback.

Excellent value

I bought two of these. They're very useable, portable. light and work well for most situations. My preference is to mount them on their own stands, rather than on a book stand, which provides a bit more flexibility for locating.

Behringer B205D

We use a mix of these and pretty much identical Mackie monitors. I can?t tell the difference. Had them for several years and still working perfectly. Ideal for practice and on stage, monitoring all the stage instruments except perhaps the bass. Handy for plugging in iPod or recorder to review songs etc too due to the mixer capability.

If space is limited

I bought this after seeing it used by another band. The monitor may be little but loud! It sits on a mic stand using a cross shaped adaptor (included). if you use a boom mic stand there is an adaptor that fits in the top of the unit to enable this ,also included. Due to its design it is very easy to place for your needs, mine sits just behind my hi-hats.

Unlike some wedge monitors you can adjust not only the volume but also the treble, middle and bass. If you're a drummer who plays with a click, you can feed this into a separate channel on the unit.

Since I've had mine, other members of the bands I play in have also purchased them. You can't get a better recommendation than that.

Underated maybe but probably underheard...!

Great little monitor - the difference this little animal makes to localized feedback has to be heard to be appreciated..! The fact that you can 'daisy chain' to an extent is also fantastic... i honestly think that Behringer is probably the most underrated equipment out there at the moment but I think that is changing...

No other monitor comes near!

This monitor fits on a microphone stand so you can set it up with your mic on top and you have a compact unit on stage. It is perfect for drummers who sing (which I am not) and guitarists. The proximity of the unit to the performer means you will always hear it. The choice of input and prensence of tone controls means you can take your signal from anywhere and have it as loud as you want, using the tone controls to avoid feedback. The power is amazing for such a small speaker! This is the best monitor I've ever used for indoor gigs.

Great monitor

I use a pair of these with my rock covers band. Mounted on mic stands, they are brilliant.

The sounds quality is not amazing but hearing yourself is not a problem. Just keep them close to head height and near to you as possible. Also the 3 band EQ is very useful. Can even be used a small PA if need be as has 3 inputs.

Great little Monitor

Had this for a few years, and I gig about every two or three weeks, and this always comes along. Perfect for getting a monitor for vocals and instruments, with the unit sitting on top of a 1m or so high mic stand, the sound just comes to me, and doesn't attempt to flood the stage. Has proven robust in that time, and I have recommended it to a number of musician friends who have also bought one. It is loud enough for the bands I play in (from 4 piece rock to acoustic guitars/folk)

Top Class

This monitor is the best piece of equipment I've ever purchased. I can't fault it for the situation in which I play. I play keys in a busy 5 piece function band. I have this mounted on a mic stand facing me directly from just above my top keyboard. The sound quality is fantastic, the portability is great and the volume is perfect even in a 5 piece band. I was using a 600watt monitor on the floor next to me until I got this. I'd never go back to that set up.

I also use it as an amp for small jazz trio gigs, again mounted on a mic stand. I play electric violin and keys through it in this context. It makes for a great violin amplifier too. It's incredibly versatile and portable, with great sound quality. I would highly recommend this product.
