SOLD Sunday 11.22.09

I've been using my Behringer BX 4500H head for about two years for gigs, although it has only been used a half-dozen times because we don't gig often. It's a rock-solid 450W amp, amp and very dependable. I'm selling because I just bought a Genz-Benz micro amp setup and don't need the Behringer any longer - I've gone lightweight!

There's not a mark or flaw on it, and it comes with the foot switch. This amp is absolutely like new. $125 plus shipping costs takes it; factory weight is 31 pounds, but it will be a bit heavier in a stout box. My zip code is 80524 in Colorado - you can check shipping to yourself.

Here is a ZZsounds listing with specs and reviews - it gets a 9 out of 10. I know some people have reservations about Behringer, but this amp is one of the best units they make, it has a good reputation and I've tested it for you. Link: http://www.zzounds.com/item--BEHBX4500H

If there are 3 speaker outputs....how does that work. If you hook up one cabinet...it gets all 450...or is it 150/output?

Ref: the manual is found online at: http://www.behringer.de/EN/downloads/pdf/BX4500H_P0362_M_EN.pdf . Connecting multiple speakers is explained on page 7.

Like most amps, the power output is determined by the total impedence of the speaker cabs connected, not by the number of speakers connected. There are two 1/4" and one speakon connectors. Power is 450W into 4 ohms, so although I haven't seen this stated in the manual, presumably power output is half that or slightly more into 8 ohms. Connecting two 8-ohm cabs would result in 4 ohm impedence. This could be by using both 1/4" connectors, or one 1/4 and one speakon.

Hope that helps. If you connect one speaker or two, they get the same amount of power - depending on their total impedence.

Please PM me a complete address with postal code, and I'll check. USPS doesn't need that much info, but I ran a quick check and found them to be very expensive (almost $70). To check alternative shipping via UPS or FedEx, I need a complete destination address.

The Behringer BX 4500 puts out 450 watts @4 ohms. If you are connecting an 8@ speaker cabinet, the output is much less than 450 watts. Ideally you would use the center speaker output simply to take advantage of the speakon neutrik connector. The three speaker output options are there for your convince only. Using 2 (two) - 8ohm speaker cabinets or one 4 ohm speaker cabinet will achieve a 4 ohm load and said 450 watts.
