Behringer BG412F Cabinet

Plain 4x12, mono/stereo switch, 2 inputs. 16ohm impedance in mono 8ohm per channel in stereo.
When used in mono the second input can be used as a bridge output for a second cabinet.
It's made of plywood and mdf, vinyl covering, metal grill, metal corners and METAL HANDLES (not plastic like marshalls...).
It weights more than other cabs like marshalls.

Great sounding cab.
It's very smooth, with my Gibson SG the clean sounds are really creamy, great for soft chords or jazzy leads, with distortion it's still smooth an has a nice definition, at least with my setup.
I think it's a great cab for hard rock or metal beacause it allows you to use montrous distortions keeping a smooth top end plus an awesome bottom end "thump".
It really shakes the wall (I usually feel it in my stomach!) and the speakers are absolutely clean sounding, they won't color the sound at all, is simple words what you hears is what comes out of your poweramp.

Seems to be built like a tank but it's early to give an opinion.

Nothing to say!

First of all it's a STEAL for the price.
Gives marshall and all the others a RRRRUUUNNNN for the money, sounds great, built like a tank and looks good.
I've been playing for 6 years, my curent setup is:
Gibson SG -> Rocktron Progap Ultra preamp -> Digitech RP20 in the FX loop used for FX and as MIDI pedalboard -> Peavey Classic 50/50 tube poweramp -> Behringer 4x12 cab.
With this setup I can get almost every possible sound, from king of klean to bone crushing distortion and anything in between.
The beringher is great to tame a little bit the rocktron (which is very aggressive sounding) and easily handles any bone crushing bottom end.

400watt. good
stereo/mono switch. great idea
jensens. sound ok, could be better. loud.
box, a bit ordinary. quite shit actualy.
but the casters...
they are a magical work of an imense pile of smelling shit. these casters not only drag into the concrete while trying to force your way anywhere, but they come pre-rusted and bent and with bits missing.
You've done well.

i play a mesa 50watt rectifier head with an old school ibanez 770 tuned to B using 12-70 guage strings, for insane crazy screamy death hardcore(www.means-to-an-end.com), and a les paul, both with dimarzio pickups.
i also play in an ABBA cover band.

but anyway, box sounds good with the setup i have. love the 400watt.
those casters though. fuck...

Dont know yet. only new. going alright now except for those casters. had to spend 60 bucks to get newys.

surprise me.
whatever.

overall: a small bit better than average.
not as good as rivera.
better than a JCM900 box
better than a laney 4x12
heavy as fuck
not as expensive as mesa
cheap as fuck
comes with pre-rusted and pre-fucked up casters and a rattling screw in the box.
no worries.

This cab looks good on paper.

I dont know what these other guys are talking about, they are probably behringer employees. I took the cab for a test run in the store and it made all the heads sound like shit. Its made with particle board, shitty handles, shitty jensen speakers. What really pissed me off is that the sales representitive told me they were celestion v30's in it when i could see the 4 Jensen tags all over it... at first glance it looked okay but the cab really was a peice of shit. I never have bought one and I never will.
Dont Buy a behringer cab, save a bit of dough and get a mesa, or any other brand for that matter, these cabs suck.

Would not have lasted on the road.

This cab sounds cheap and It is cheaply made. no wonder its cheap.

Hey all!
This is a short supplement to my original review.
I think one of the reasons that some people gave these Behringer Cabinets bad reviews in the beginning was because they were mad as hell that they spent so much money on Marshall and Mesa Cabs( OR other brands ) in the past, and there they sat; listening to an incredible 4X12 that cost only a quarter of what they paid for a "Brand Name"!!! LOL!!!

I just wanted to add that using my RP-2000, I have programs both WITH and WITHOUT cabinet simulation, and that the Cab Sim adds MASSIVE Low End Punch( like the Rocktron "Reactance" feature ) that the Behringer just eats up like a Plate O' Ribs, baby! LOL!!!

I just LOVE this freakin' Cabinet; I turn my power amp about halfway up( I've got 450 watts baby!!! ) and just peel enamel till' the cows come home!!!

Oh YEAH...I WILL be buying another one to complete "Stackosaurus REX"!!! LOL!!!!!

People please; don't buy these cabs; I want that killer sound ALL TO MYSELF!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!

JUST KIDDING!

See above reviews.

I play in a progressive metal that requires a variety of tones. My setup is...
Guitars: Ibanez RG7620, Kramer 7-string, Steinberger GU-7R
Rack: Rocktron Chameleon> BBE Sonic Maximizer> Rocktron Velocity 300 poweramp
Pedals: ART X-15 Midi Footcontroller, Dunlop 95Q Wah

This sucker blows away EVERY cab on the market! I've owned cabs from Marshall, Mesa, Peavey, & Genz-Benz in the past, but the clarity from the Behringer cab is unparallel.

I also love the fact that the cab has a 400W rating. It's able to take a ton of power & the speakers do not distort or get muddy. I prefer my distortion to come straight from the preamp & I like that the speakers reproduce my sound with the utmost clarity.

Huge lows, smooth mids, & crisp highs. IT IS A STEAL at this price!

So far, very reliable. It's built like a tank!

Haven't used it.

I've been playing for 19 years.
I would definately buy another one if this one were stolen or lost.
The only bitch I have is this...I wish the cab had either wheel inserts in the top of the cab or interlocking corner pieces (to facilitate secure cabinet stacking).

All in all, it's a great cab. Dont' waste lots of money on other cabs. Buy this instead...you WON'T regret it.

Made in 2003
4 X 12 STEREO CABINET, STRAIGHT FRONT, with 400 Watts handling capability.
Mono/Stereo Switch in back of Cabinet.
100-watt Behringer "Shark" Speakers.
Solid Construction with METAL corner-protectors, STEELE "small diamonds" grill, METAL logo w/ rubber insulators front and back, and removable CASTERS INCLUDED with purchase price.

Using with a 450-watt Carvin "Fet" series MOSFET AMPLIFIER, and DIGITECH RP 2000 Processor / Preamp/Modeler. Tones are very warm and punchy with power to spare. Speakers are sensitive to Stereo effects and EQ tweaks.
I really like these speakers; they don't fart-out at high decibles, and they seem to cut-out that annoying high pitched "hiss" that you can hear standing in front of a Marshall 1960A when it's cranked-up. That is NOT to say that the speakers lack Highs, quite the contrary; the highs come across as more "buttery" and smooth as opposed to transient and slicing.
I think that the earliest versions of these cabs, especially that "slanted baffle" design, weren't put together as well as these newer ones, and that's probably why they got such a bad reputation.
Value-wise, I seriously doubt that there's ANYTHING out there that comes even close to these. I remember my former guitarists' Marshall Cabs, and they have NOTHING on these cabinets in the sound dept. I think Mesa, Randall, and Carvin may use better woods( I haven't popped the back to check the specs yet ), but these Behringer Cabs have absolutely NOTHING to be ashamed of; they're a MAJOR Price/Performance winner.

We'll see...

Haven't dealt with them. They DO have a very comprehensive website though, and I was able to register the Cabinet Online.

Time will tell but as for now, I am completely happy with my purchase and I'd recommend this Cabinet to anyone.

4 100 Watt Custom Made Shark Speaker.
16 ohm mono - 8 ohm Stereo.
400 Watt total.
The S model has Jensen Speaker.

Very good sounding. The bright tones are very good and the bass are very good too. It's sound very good with my BRUNETTI XL-Revo 120Watt Valve Head. The crunch now is very awesome and in my opinion this cab is better than the famous Marshall 1960, it has a better response to the basses and in the distorted sounds.

Never had a problem

It has a 12 months warranty.
Never repaired.

Very good cab and a must bought for the low price!!!
