Behringer BG412S 412 Cabinet

-selector switch mono /stereo
-400watt
-4x12 inch heavy duty jensens
-8omhs
-casters (not very good)

Maybe a less restrictive impedance (Marhall work on 4/16). OK. It's because the way their are connected. Maybe a switch paralell/ series...

Good allmost all the time.
Sometimes i notice a little vibration. But since iput my rack on top of it, the vibration's gone...
The surrond is amazing if you stand in the center of a room. It come from everywhere - surronund you :). An 8 because of the vibration, otherwise a 10

I think it's very durable. Except from the casters...They stuck all the time !

Not needed....

How long have you been playing for 12 years. compared with thei cousin Marhshals they stand very well. And with this price their very good (so the 9). Some materials could be better, like the casters....

I play punk, metal...but mostly hardcore. Something like Avenged Sevenfold, Killswitch Engaged, As I Lay Dying, Thrice, Everytime I Die..stuff like that. For features.....it's a cabinet.... selector switch from mono to stereo...400watt, 4x12 inch jensens, 8omhs. oh ya it weighs a like 100 pounds....and the casters suck.

I use a epiphone sg g-310 and a gibson les paul custom through it and use a Marshall 8100 100w for a head. The bottom end lacks and it's not as warm as i'd really like it to be but you get what you pay for it. I haven't spent much time on stuff other then heavy distortion.

Well i haven't had it long enough to tell truly how reliable it is, but so far it's only slammed into my head....amplifier head that is, when we missed an exit...the things a friggin tank.

didn't have to talk to them thankfully.

I don't know what other people are talking about when they give it a 10...because i know it's priced very well and is very decent but they must work for behringer or something.....it's good not that good....Although i don't like comparing it to marshall or mesa I find that the are the industries standards and everything gets compared to them. Although i won't give it a perfect 10...i think this is the best bang for your buck.

This cab has been around atleast since 2002.It's versatile in that I can go from extreme gain to jazz clean and it reproduces my tones perfectly.Has a metal front grill.The top speakers are angled to either side for a wider sound dispersal.Pretty cool.It looks good.Weighs a ton.Has stereo/mono capability.The casters are really bad.They will not go in the direction you push it.Other than that this cab meets my needs.

Ok,one word;awesome!With my rig this cab is unbeatable and my tone is huge.I use a Hamer Vector with Dimarzio sd bridge pup,Boss gt-6 and either a ART dst 80/80 or mosvalve power amp.Either way this setup crushes.I play mostly all original metal.The clean sounds are pristine.The distortion I use is thick and meaty with a little Marshall mid range and abit of rumbly mesa low end.More or less rumble depending on if palm muted and how hard you pick.I am very pleased so far.I just got this last week but have put it through the paces.Low volume-no problem.High volume,even better.For the price you can't beat it.

So far it's rock solid.I haven't gigged with it yet so for now I'll give it a 7

Don't know yet.

I have been playing for 20 years.I have another custom made 4x12,mosvalve amp,art dst 80/80,boss gt 6,hamer vector,carvin ultra v.and an assortment of pedals,midi controllers etc.If this were stolen I would buy another asap.Sound and features are great except for the casters.I bought this cab for features and sound vs price of several others.The closest in price was a carvin at about $100.00 more

I don't know when it was made.
This amp handles every type of music I can think of to play on my guitar. Rock, Jazz, Hard Rock, fusion, ect...
It has left and right inputs and is true stereo. The top speakers are facing in opposite directions not only slanting backwards! gives an amazing effect. I can stand 50 ft away from it and its like right my face! I have never heard anything like it before!

I play an Ibanez RG1570 and I use every pickup position constantly. I am always switching tones and going to from clean to dirty and this amp does it like a champ -effortlessly. The beveled speakers have an amazing effect! I can stand 50 ft away from it and its like right my face! I have never heard anything like it before!
Playing rock and metal and everything inbetween this thing really takes the tone of your fingers and amp and lets you hear it. It has virutually no tone interferrence but yet has this 'unique charracter' to it at the same time.
I played an ibanez head through this cab, and then a Line6 cab, then a Carvin cab, then a MARSHALL cab, then a PRO cab, then a PEAVEY cab going back to the Behringer after every Cab change and I give you my utmost truthful response... The Behringer & the old P.R.O. cabs were the absolute best. No shit... They SMOKED the Marshall AND the Peavey. There was n debate about it. So... If you are some kind of Marshall purist or something then put side your ignorance and give this thing a try I am sure you will love it.

Its built like a tank... I have no problems

N/A

This is the best cab I have ever owned. If it was stolen I would but another one easily -No questions!`

features are as usual, side handles for easy lifting.. REMOVABLE CASTERS!!!! VERY USEFUL! kick ass looks.. the top speakers are tilted to the sides for more projection...which is great for halfstack. can switch from 8 ohms to ...the other setting... cage curtain.

i use a yamaha 112 with stock pickups....carvin ap11 and m22sd coming in 2 weeks, i will update this when i get the pick ups. this is a great amp...no complains...for the price...holy shit...got it at a sale...399 + tax....CDN...really nice sound...well..its really my marshall producing the sound..but this carry it out well. its loud!!!...hmmmm...i didn't put it loud enough to hear a hiss or wat ever..im too scared to blow my house down...this sounds great...the highs and mid...but sometimes too bassy...but no other complains yet.
cant go wrong with a cap this price...

i can depend on anytihng that weighs as much as me..or heavier...man this thing is a fucking tank...i can bring a guys ribs with this...and the metal side corners are great for pinpointing objects...like ramming it into someone's eye. i just got this....was out in the cold like -7 for about 30 mins trying to fit this in the car....man this is canada...and with windchill...this thing can survive...i bashed it a few times before i even got to plug in....man ...this is like a bombshelter when u take out the speakers..haha.

never dealt. fucking nazis...they'll fry me if i complain about this product.

KICK ASS....YOU CANNNNNNT GO WRONG....this is for people with no money(me) and need a stack...really....name brands dont do much...its the same damn shit...its speakers...in a wooden casing on weels...why pay another 600 for a marshall? ...its the head that counts on name brand...behringer user!!! with pride....im glade im not jewish

4x12" Jensen speakers, stereo or mono, "special" outward slant on top two speakers for wider stereo dispersion.

OK, I was after a cheap cabinet. Little did I know or suspect it would be the best sounding cabinet I've had yet (and I've had quite a few)-- this thing is clear, crisp and the mids CUT. I'm ordering 3 more. I can't BELIEVE the price point on these things. UPS is going to get tired of delivering them. :-)

Don't know. Haven't had the opportunity to break it yet. At this price, though, they're disposable. :-)

I think major music manufacturers should wake up and look at what Behringer is doing. Many of us (even those of us who have the cash for higher end stuff) are damn tired of paying through the nose for low quality garbage with high end labels. Behringer's entire line not only kicks, but is priced so that us married musicians can stay married musicians. :-) I'm putting the Behringer sticker that came with this on my bumper.

I've been playing pro and semi-pro for about 20 years, and have a lot of gear. Price aside, even if this was $600 it would be a GREAT cabinet.

all the features have been covered, so im not gonna bother.

i have used a Marshall MG100DFXH and a hughes and kettner vortex head w/ it, and while it does sounds good, especially w/ the marshall, they both max the cab out quite easily, maybe at half. it doesn't get as loud as i need it to be, so i hook some other stuff up to my head to get it loud enough.

i can depend on the speakers not getting ruin from something like a bumpy ride to the show, but the outside covering is horrible, one flick and theres a big scratch or dent in it.

never dealt w/ em

if it were stolen, id get one of those new line 6 spider II cab, they are amazing. i dont hate this thing, but i wouldn't be heartbroken at all if it were stolen. Good deal if you're looking for a cheap stack to make your band look professional i guess, but thats all.

this is an extremely great cab for the price. the Jensen speakers are heavy duty, as well as the body of the cab itself. this thing is a freakin' tank. it weighs like 105 pounds...so, the included detatchable casters are very helpful. beautifully built cab. has upward/outward angled top speakers...why hasn't anyone else ever thought of this? totally ingenious...totally. the cab can be run in mono mode [8 ohms], or stereo mode [8-12 ohms] - which is great if you have two guitarists that want to use the same cab [split it r/l] or if you have two seperate amps that you use simultaniously or seperately. this thing puts the sound all over the room, wherever you are.

I use an Epiphone G-400 with Carvin M22T/C22N pickups through a Peavey Express 112S amp [soon to be a Randall RH100]. this cab's speakers are not the brightest speakers in the world, but if you back off the lows on your amp a little and juice the highs and mids a hair, you get a most wonderful sound from them. it's VERY chunky...and for what I play [rock, blues] that's awesome. when you're palm muting, the cab rattles a little bit [it's not the grille...I can't figure out what exactly it is...], but at any decent stage or recording volume, you would never know it. for the price, this cab is definately the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. sure, it's no Marshall or Mesa/Boogie, but it rocks. it's definately worth much more than what you pay for it.

holy crap. I've only had this for 3 days, but I would definately depend on this sucka. it's so tough, you could probably drop it off a 6 foot stage without a ding. It's got a sweet metal grille too...you would never get one of those for under $400 from any other brand.

haven't dealt with them, but it has a warranty for like a year I think...

amazing value. get one, especially if it's your first half stack. seriously...you'll love it.

BG412H- 2003. 400 Watts mono at 8 ohms. 200 Watts Stereo at 12 ohms. 4 100 watt Jensen speaker wired in series-parallel. The top two speakers are slanted and splayed at about 30 degrees. This widens the stereo image as well as the dispertion of the sound. Stereo/mono switch on back panel. Two paralell input jacks marked "IN" and "OUT" though both function the same in the mono setting but double as "left" and "right" in the stereo setting.
The cabinet is constructed out of 3/4 inch E1 MDF. It does not have a center baffle dowm the middle sepperating it into two 2-12 compartments but it dose have a heavy reinforcing brace tieing in all four walls midway up the cabinet. The speaker baffle is 1/2 inch plywood. The splayed section is well constructed with tight seams even with the compound angles. The whole thing is glued together with reinforcing corner blocks. The grill is heavy gage perforated steel with the Behringer name and logo in the center. You would have to hit it with a sledge hammer for it to touch the cones. However a pencil or screwdriver could easily slip through...so keep thin-pointy things away. The tolex covering is like rynoliner. It's about 1/8" thick. You could scoop out chunks and not break through. The corners have protective chrome plates. They are a little thin and can be dented ,but with normal use you would have to try hard. It has detachable casters and rubber feet for when the casters are off. They need lubricant such as light grease so they swivle well. Otherwise the cab moves where it wants to when you push it. The receses for the handles are plastic but the handles themselves are metal and are through-bolted to the sides which is a good thing because all this stuff adds up to 104 pounds.
Oh yeah...It's built in China (where else)

OOOOHHHH Nice and loud. I am currently using the Randall RH100 head with this cab and Ibanez guitars with EMG Select pickups. The RH100 is a very bottom heavy amp and the BG412H holds up fine. Of course as with any cab it will bottom out if it gets too much bass at too high a volume but that threashold is rather high. There are occasonal rattles from the grill but they get masked at moderate volumes. It has a very full sound. Standing in front, it has the dispersion of an open back combo but the punch and bottom end of a closed back. It rumbles the cement floor of my basement. At 30 feet away it's still in your face. It sounds great both clean and distorted. I could see it used for all styles of music. Rock,pop,metal,country,whatever. The best way to know if you like it is to find one and try it out.

Not much can go wrong with cabinets but I can see some possible long term fixable problems. The input panel in the back is plastic. A nice sideswipe of an inserted cable could crack it. The detachable casters could get lost. And asthetic thing....the Berhinger logo is plastic. A good impact with something else could crack that too.
All in all, anything that could possibly go wrong with this cabinet is very user servicable so don't worry about it.

I don't know. Never talked to them. Hail the middle man. It's a cabinet...I'll fix it my self.

For 250 bucks this is a steal! Granted most of the cost is probably for the speakers. Perfect for those on a budget (myself) or whoever wants to build a stack without having to sell their organs. Some people might not like the cheaper materials and construction and they can go ahead and spend 500 dollars more than I did for the same thing. I like it. It's worth every penny. No complaints for the price paid. You get a workout carying it up and down stairs but I don't mind. I'll be dead a buried long before it falls apart.

Mono/Stereo 8 Ohm 4x12 cab.

Being on a tight budget I used it before with a 30 watt Behringer Combo, very displeased.. The Cabinet was able to reproduce every nuance of the combo, which of made me realize I needed to step it up in the amp department.
I finally moved up to a Marshall TSL 100, and like I said before, The Cabinet was able to reproduce every nuance of the Amp...This is when I realized the Cabinet's true potential.. Don't be fooled into thinking that the cabinet will make your amp sound better... It makes your amp sound like your amp actually sounds except louder. Now that I know better (using the Tube TSL 100 through the Cab) I am extremely pleased with the BG412S. I am thinking about moving onto a Marshall 1960AV, but will definitely hold onto the BG412S.

Have not gigged the cab yet but in rehearsals it definitely holds its own...

Have not had to deal with them.

I'm sure like many others that have considered this cabinet, the cheap price and the lesser known "Beringher" name will play a big part in your decision. Keep in mind that many pieces of equipment dismissed by countless artists have ended up sounding like a dream through those willing to give it a shot. Think Jimmy Page through a "cheap" and "poorly made" Danelctro....
