Great help for hearing.

I bought this a month ago because I have a hard time hearing everyone else in the band. This did the trick! This monitor has a lot of power! It heats up quick but it has an awesome cooling method. It has little fans in it that cool it down. I was standing in front of it and all the sudden felt a breeze, didn't know where it was coming from, until I realized it was the monitor itself.

side by side comparison

So I went to Guitar Center last night to test out the Mackie SRM150 and the Behringer Eurolive B205D spot monitors ( mic stand style). I had read pretty good reviews about the B205 with and a couple even specifically lashed out against the Mackie?s. I went to Kirkland because they specifically had the B205?s in stock. I put both monitors through a side by side test with a) an Ipod, B) Guitar, C) vocal, D) Guitar and vocals combined The first thing worth noting is that the overall tone and sound you get from a spot monitor is certainly NOTHING like you get from a 12? speaker. As a general rule, very thin tone comparatively. Having said that, I think the 3 band eq in both units makes a HUGE difference. Both speakers came alive with richer tones when the low and mid EQ were increased. Unfortunately for the B205d, that is where the rubber meets the road as far as I was concerned. With the low end EQ turned up, the B205d speaker could not handle the thud and was cracking and popping whereby the Mackie continued to deliver smooth low end tone even with the low eq maxed out. Additionally, when I play acoustic I sometimes ?slap? near the sound hole or strings. At higher volume and with the low eq up, the B205?s picked up everything with it?s overdriven snap, crackle, and pop. Not so much on the Mackie. I think the internal speaker on the Mackie is slightly larger than the B205, and if that?s what made the difference, then so be it. I suspect it is just better components in the speaker and crossover. Over all 4 tests above, I found the Mackie to create better overall tone and sensitivity over the B205?s. The B205?s may have been slightly louder at lower volumes, but that?s about it. Another interesting note is that they had a display set up with these side by side, but he had to swap out the B205 because the speaker was already blown in the display before we had even started! One more reason to be nervous about the B205's. I suspect at the end of the day, that these types of monitors are just going to be trouble in general if they are overdriven or abused in any way. If handled with care for lighter acoustic shows, they should work fine. I understand that price is an issue, and the difference in price a unit is quite a difference, but in terms of quality of sound, there is no question the Mackie SRM150 is better.

    I bought this to use as a personal monitor during rehearsals and gigs. My band (2 guitars, drums, vocals, and bass) isn't super loud but I was having a hard time hearing other members. The B205D is exactly what I was looking for - small, portable, easy to use, mounts onto a mic stand, and sound good. It has blown away everyone in my band and they all want one now. I'm quite impressed.

    Well got tired of tripping over the floor monitors (and the power amp) so we broke down and purchase two of these.. Used them last night and was amazed. We are a 4 pc classic rock/dance music band and we are semi loud. Put one on each end of the stage shooting side ways across the band and all of us (including the drummer) could hear clearly... no feedback issues at all.Even bled a little of the keyboard into them and the vocals were still clean with no distortion at all. Lead singer normally uses a ear monitor, but did not need it at all and I was using it at about 50% power in a large size club. Some people poo poo the Behringer line of products, but I have never had a problem with them...if you don't abuse it... it won't go down on U..

    Hey, this may be a dumb review and really off from the professional use of this product, but I bought this guy for my 2 and 5 year old kids to sign Karaoke. I hooked it up to a wireless Shure microphone system and a mobile phone where they can play their favorite songs and sing along. This speaker sounds amazing !! My neighbor keep knocking on my wall, so I know it's working well ;-) I like the fact that I can control the various inputs and that's is very easy to use. I'm sure it would work well in a professional setting. I plan to also use this to rehearse my presentation skills using a single mic. Great unit, I highly recommend it !! ♫ ♬ ♪ ♩ ♪

    Bought for our female singer to use and she loves it. The rest of the band likes it too. Much better than hauling around the big floor monitors. We will probably get one for everyone else in the near future. It would be nice if there was a gig bag to carry them in.
