Behringer P1, Xlr

Ok ok

Resultó ser la solución perfecta para mi monitoreo en vivo, trabajo con secuencias y también necesito un monitoreo de la Banda. Tenia mis reservas respecto al volumen de behringer por las críticas que había leído pero esto no resultó ser cierto, todo depende de la señal que envíes desde tu fuente, si es baja obviamente no tendrás mucho pero si haces el trabajo correcto el equipo funciona excelente.

Van muy bien. Aunque la entrada de corriente por adaptador está al revés de lo lógico.

Ich habe mir den Abhörmonitor gekauft, um mich im Bandproberaum zu hören. Wer schon mal in Bandproberäumen gesungen hat, weiß, dass man da schnell untergeht als Sänger. Abhilfe schafft da der Abhörmonitor. Der Behringer macht einen robusten Eindruck und funktioniert einwandfrei. In Coronazeiten üben wir online und auch hier ist er im Einsatz und verrichtet seinen Dienst höchst zuverlässig. Der Klang ist super. Ich finde, dass kabelgebunden immer noch die stabilste Verbindung ist und deswegen habe ich mir für das P1 entschieden.

Performed exactly as hoped. XLR straight in out of the "monitor out" of my board. Using in ear monitors we've made a huge improvement (reduction) of stage volume for musicians without impacting the audience.

OK, so let me start out by saying I have a LONG history with Behringer products. Most of my experience has been so-so at best. Starting in the early days with the reverse-engineered, made in China clones of dbx, Mackie, Aphex and others - the quality has always been hit and miss but for me, mostly misses. Recently, Behringer seems to have switched gears (somewhat) and are buying up some pretty well known manufacturers and making an effort to establish themselves as a legitimate pro audio leader. So I have been paying attention to their more recent offerings. I play drums and use IEMs. When I needed a headphone amp, I started looking at all of the usual suspects. Price was not the main concern - I don't mind paying for quality gear - but I am not a gear snob either. The Behringer had some pretty cool features, including XLR inputs, a mic stand mount, and a belt clip. It was decently small and for under $50.00, I figured it was worth checking out. If I hated it I could always return it. A year later, I am still using it. It fits the bill pretty nicely for me. Is it audiophile quality? No. However, given the environment it has enough output and headroom to work well for me. The low end is solid and the top end does not seem overly harsh. Be careful though - if you are using consumer earbuds you may not get the same results. I use custom molded triple driver ear monitors that are up to the task and offer a lot of isolation from the ambient drum and stage volume. Even so, the P1 is usually run near the top of its output range. Be careful that you run a clean signal to it, and don't overdrive the inputs (but this is true for ANY headphone amplifier). There are a few negatives - but considering the price of the unit, it definitely earns 4 stars. The negatives - (1) No power supply is included which is really pretty silly given its intended application. The battery option is nice, but probably not used much. This is a wired unit, meaning you are going to be relatively stationary - so a power supply over a battery is a no brainer. (2) XLR inputs only. Would be nice if one of the XLRs was a combo connector that could be used with a TRS input for a stereo feed. Depending on what you are sending, you may need some extra cabling. (3) Limiter cannot be bypassed. I prefer to use the compressor/limiter on my console or IEM processor as it is much more musical and exact. I get it as a safety feature for novices - but make it a jumper or something internal that has to be intentional and that would likely discourage most people that may not hear the difference anyway from bothering with it. Overall, this unit was a pleasant surprise. And since its been a year since I purchased it - it has proven reliable thus far.Update 11/28/2023 - I have had this unit for 6 years, used almost weekly, without a failure. Even with the shortcomings mentioned, it deserves a 5 star rating for reliability alone so I have updated this review.
