Behringer B210D Reviews

Muddy Waters Poor Treble

The sound is what Amps are all about. I compared this to a much older Stagg 150W Monitor Amp. The Stagg has better Bass, better treble., more Clarity from Drum tracks, Cymbals without Sibilance and a generally clear sound. On this Amp with the treble turned all the way up it still didn't come through on the high notes. Strangely enough it did score well on female vocals. The Bass is Muddy/Mushy. In summation, seems to be well made, well appointed but Amps as I said are about sound, and this is a poorly executed item. Lastly while soak testing the power supply ran very hot with no sound going into it. Shame

The best loudspeaker under 200 Eyro

Two years i have it as monitor,no problems,no issues,I am satisfied at all.

Brilliant Loudspeaker

Excellent stage monitor for a small venue that puts on live bands 4 nights a week. Very robust and will take a few knocks - it has not let us down yet.

I have had one of these for several years now and I use it regularly. Sometimes I use mounted on a poll as a PA amp for small performances, other times as an on-stage wedge monitor. It works well in both roles.

Overall, I have found the sound quality to be pretty good. I feel it is a bit "boomy" at the low end, but clarity is generally good and there is plenty of power.

Behringer gear seems to be looked down on for its build quality here, but I have no complaints about this: it is built like a tank and after several years of use hasn't given me any trouble (although I do tend to be rather careful of my equipment).

Plastic sound bass

Speakers for a good price. Do not expect much from this device. Case plastic - so the sound of plastic too. Super quality is not to be expected from the sound - boomy bass but did not play music. Not a bad choice for background music or simply monitor when you do not really need the music sound like in the wooden PA. It is a good combo set with stands Millenium BS-2211B MKII Set, because it is not very heavy in the stands.

Great speaker

I have one B212D which I have used for at least hundred small gigs(acoustic guitar and voice on that single speaker), I bought it used and it still works perfectly. It is actually too powerful for some tinyvenues so I have decided to buy this smaller version, sounds great and is a lot easier to carry around. I use it combined with Phonic AM440D mixer, and it sounds great.

Ok for the most features

It tends to distort when the sound pressure is big. Anyway, for the rest, it is very capable. It has 10'' woofers, great for basses, I believe it is enough for small pubs and bar. When coupled with a separated subwoofer, it is indeed a great set of speakers: it can works as open air amplification.

I would recommend, it's great, it does its work, even if you have to pay a bit of attention when pressing a lot, it can fail in the sound for high volume pressures.

Super

Verry good kvality and sound....

Excellent speaker

I didn't expect this speaker to be as good as it turned out to be because it's not expensive. Fiddles sound wonderful through these speakers - a real bonus because they are notoriously hard to get good amplified sound. Excellent,

Great sound. Great value

Good, clear sound over whole frequency range. Good build quality. Very portable and excellent value. We use two of these with a Yamaha Mg10 mixer - a great system for around £500

Behringer

I use quite a lot of Behringer gear and have always found it to be very good. Was a little dubious about these until I used them on a live gig and they blew me away. Awesome sound from something so compact and lightweight.

Awesome sound

I use these both in concerts and at home for rehearsal and sound mixing work. Highly durable and good construction. Very recommended for a great quality and price ratio.

Better than a phone, but not epic.

I use it sometimes, for DJ-listening.

The sound is okay, but there's no bass to talk about.

You can make a speech in it, for about 50 people, not more.

Behringer B210D

These are very clear for speech and excellent quality for music when matched with a sub woofer - I have a pair coupled with a single B1200D and the sound is excellent and more than enough to fill a room for about 200 people. On their own they are very light on the bass - it seems to stop at about 65Hz but would be fine for use as a voice PA. In terms of value for money they can't be faulted.

Excellent!

I've been using these speakers for about 18 months now and they are superb. Very lightweight. Crystal clear sound. I've been using them as front of house for vocals acoustic guitar and keyboards, as well as MP3s for pub gigs. They have handled everything I could throw at them. Volume has never been an issue. In fact they are so good I have just today ordered two more. Great value for money. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

behringer b210d

bought these to use as monitors with my pyrit p a they cut through our live band on stage even when our drummer,s building a shed we love them

good budget monitor

simple and straightforward to set up and use

we use it for on stage monitoring of vocals in an acoustic ensemble that includes flute and cello, and it cuts through the lot. Good round sound too, not as tinny as some i've heard. the singers seem satisfied - happy singers, happy band.

padded cover would definitely be a bonus

Behringer B210D

ive used this monitor in several locations and for different applications its sound is superbly clear it has unbelieveable volume in such a small compact unit, and has simple controls the only negative is i have had to create a padded cover as the controls aree easily damaged they stick out and could easily get broken off so a custom padded cover would be great, its also extremely light so this can go anywhere do anything fantastic! ive used this with a small band set up competeing against drums a double bass and guitsr and it still had the power to get my piano and vocals well in front fabulous clarity and even delivers fat bass.

Good for purpose

While not the best speakers in the world, the Behringer B210D nonetheless do exactly what I want ideally. They make a good small PA system speaker for small venues (careful to not overdrive them) or brilliant monitors for choirs.

Consider the price, and then consider the sound!

I am a musician, and a sound engineer, and this review is coming from someone who works in both careers.

I use two of these speakers for small gigs, of up to 90 people, or as monitors for myself and another on stage for larger gigs. These speakers definitely don't lack power, especially for their size (464 x 292 x 244mm) and weight of 8.5kg.

Sound:

The sound isn't to every musician's taste I don't believe. I would call it flat, but to me, as a sound engineer, that's a good thing. With a small graphic equalizer (I use a behringer xenyx x1222 desk which has one on it) I can get a great sound from these, no matter what venue I play at. As you turn them up they don't lose bass, and the trebles don't distort. I would like to add that the bass sounds as if it is around 65 to 70hz, which may not be low enough for some people, but if that's the case then a subwoofer would be your best choice to buy with it.

Features:

Not many knobs for you to play around with, which to me once again is a good thing. Less knobs means less time setting up, and less things to break.

It has a power switch, a level knob, and a low and high EQ knob. There are two lights, one green to tell you there is power, and a red clip light to tell you that you're going too loud.

This speaker only has a Microphone input, a jack input, and a microphone link output to connect to another speaker. It does not use "speakon" cables, which isn't a problem for me as I prefer using microphone cables, as they tend to be cheaper to buy, can be connected together to make longer cables, and can be used for other equipment (such as microphones and guitar pedals).

Quality:

The cabinet itself seems to be made of a typical hard plastic, and the main speaker is protected with a metal grill. It seems very sturdy, but the one thing I worry about is the knobs located at the back, which are only protected by a bit of plastic from the cabinet that sticks out at the top and bottom. If you're the kind of musician that literally throws everything into the back of the van, I doubt the knobs will last very long.

Conclusion:

I've done a couple of gigs with these so far and they are definitely worth the money. If I had a couple hundred euros more I would have gone for the b212d model instead as it is a lot more powerful, but these are not a bad investment as when the time comes to buy those, the b210d's will work very well as my stage monitors.

Also I would like to add that these are definitely better than the b208d, if only for the fact that the b208d doesn't have a handle. They both produce the same amount of power, but the b210d's do sound a little bassier.
