I recently considered upgrading my bass system, and have already bought a crown XS1200 amp and a DBX Driverack PA, however, i have less funds than i expected to buy the subwoofer speakers.
What does everyone recon to these? - Behringer B1800x PRO 800watt 18" subs (200 each)

I've got a pair, they sound very good but I have only used them 3 times, they are too big and heavy for me , so if you want the pair for £200 they are yours but you would have to pick them up.

I think so not sure check tomorrow & let you know.
I've got a pair, not had chance to really run them. They have the yellow badge on the front. Pick up my 2nd hand Crown XLS602 this weekend (£175) so will be able to give them a quick blast to let you know. I have been overimpressed by my 1520's which are abnormally loud when combined with the EP2500.

I find the behringer speakers/amps to be very efficent. Once ran entire band evening (In 200 people hall) off 2x200w Behringer tops and matching poweramp/mixer combined thing.
Ran everything including vocals,guitars,bass and drums and still had headroom to turn it up :)

Best graphic equaliser I ever owned in 25 years is Behringer.
Had a Behringer mixer a few years ago... nice solid build; decent price.
Never used their amps/speakers.

I would say it's the other way round. Desks = rubbish, Speakers/Amps = good

I've never used the speakers, but I do have a powered desk I use for karaoke, PA hire etc and have to say it's very good.
Excellent build quality, smooth faders, pretty good power and lots of DSP effects.

I use a behringer mixer between my denons maybe not the choice of many but for the price the quality and toys you get, I personaly don't think you can go wrong
Also it's good to see a fellow cerwin freek would'nt run any thing else

What do you think of them? can you remember how much you paid for them? Do you want or know anyone, who wants a pair virtually new for £200 ?
Not really had a chance to test them as yet.
I may know a youth centre that could be interested in Twickenham. Will let you know next week if they are.

nah, they're the 1800x not the b1800xpro, i think they're 400watts instead of 800watts...

Friend of mine has a pair of those quite nice units but big and heavey but nice sound.
I myself have the Beh' 1520 tops and 1500x bottoms for my pa running from a void Baysys amp and the sound is great but the 1800X bass bins are slighty better than mine i would purchase those 1800x's £200 myself but im looking to sell the PA and buy a complete Void Baysys system. but have to say in the three years+ i have used these units they have been very good just dont drop them the crossovers in the tops dont take kindly to it as i found out over xmas.
