Behringer CX2310 Crossover
Hi Guys, A quick question about the CX2310 ... In 2 way stereo mode (high/low), if you're using stereo satellites and only using a single mono subwoofer (Behringer B1800X Pro + bridged power-amp) connected to the extra subwoofer output, I presume that you mute the stereo 'Lows', as you don't have anything a... 13 Apr 2006 16:43

repairing damaged horn diaphragms
I have wondered for a long time how the manufacturer managed to solder aluminum voice coils to the copper lead wires on diaphragms. I have had some failures of the voice coil right where the lead wire is attached on the former. The coil is not burned or even shows signs of heat trauma. I bought some of this alumi... 12 Apr 2006 15:44

I've been working in this venue for about 6 months doing FOH for (mostly) Texas country acts. Some singers are better than others, some bands are quieter than others, but one thing that remained constant was that I was never really satisfied with the tonal quality of the vocals. Feedback was sometimes a problem w... 18 Apr 2006 18:38

Obtaining Behringer ADT1616 and DDX3216 (UK)
I read in the DCX2496 thread that Behringer had discontinued the DDX3216 and associated expansion cards. I bought a DDX3216 a few months ago for a home studio project. I didn't get the ADT1616. It was on my buying list. After I read they were in short supply I searched the net for one. The only place I could find... 8 Apr 2006 18:41
