Its not easy to tell but who knows how many posters have even played Behringer equiptment. I have a Bx 3000t amp, no problems. Its not my main amp but I'll use it when I feel like it. I use Behringer cabs,1-15 and 2-10, everyweekend in our band, even with other amps and have no trouble with them. They see 8-12 shows a month, been using them since 2005,and they work fine. And they stay in the band trailer all week since it stays loaded, bounce up and down the highway, and still work. I use them so my Ampeg cabs arent subjected to the harshness of the band trailer, cold, heat etc. I think most problems are that inexpensive gear draws beginners who would make mistakes, blowing up stuff, cant find good sound,etc, that more experianced players dont make anymore. Ive read a tons of posts where someone lamented a good piece of gear claiming lack of knowledge in the early years as to why they werent satisfied. I know Behringer isnt top of the line, but the speaker cabs are O.K., the amps work to a point,I get a good sound from them, not 300 watts worth but can gig with 2 guitars and drums, and be heared on the backline. I think the Bx 3000t was $200 bucks in 005 when I bought it the 1-15 was $199 and the 2-10 was $179. So flame away, I know for a fact the stuff works and I like to deal in facts.
