Behringer DR112DSP

Pros:
- Bass is really solid, can forgo sub in small/medium spaces
- EQ capable of adapting to most situations
- Range of inputs to support karaoke, village fete, fitness class, house party, BBQ, you get the idea...
-Considering price, sound is more than I expected!
-Wants to be played LOUD!

Cons:
- Quite noticeable "hiss", especially with master gain set to 0db. Bluetooth silence also has additional "signal noise & pops/crackles". Frustrating because high master gain is often required... see next point.
- Limiter comes on frequently, at very low output volumes. Hours of playing around, setting inputs to unity, limiter is always overactive if the Master gain is set lower than -10db. example: a fixed input level is limited at -20db, but not at -9db. Limiter comes on less the closer you get to unity on the output gain, but is unfazed by the input signal at the same setting? I don't get it.
- Neither input seems to register a visual "signal" on the DSP display until you turn the master gain past 0db. Is it visualising peak?
- Bluetooth input gain is "fixed" audibly lower than other inputs. Uses master gain so you stuck with using -10db to 0db or more (hisssss) or limiter kicks in. BT Range is more like 5m. A man carried a table between myself and speaker and the connection "broke".
- Aux line in gain uses input 1 gain, yet is audibly much lower volume than input 1 itself. Might make balancing 2Mic and a music track a bit awkward.
-Good looking box, just wish badge was stuck on straight! For what might be considered a cheaper brand, simple details like this go a long way to improve image.
- Wants to be played LOUD, as listening at low levels reveals a few annoyances.

Summary:
- You do get alot for your money. I really can't fault the features and sound volume plus the ability to tweak EQ to my needs is excellent.
-Wouldn't want to lend or rent it out as it needs some attention with the DSP concerning levels and tuning.
-Time will tell if the Limiter "settles down" or if it is actually indicating something is wrong.
Edit: many years on, speaker still performs brilliantly! Limiter function is a non issue. Yes it is heavey, but for the price it sounds really great, has plenty of adjustment and is versatile used as monitor, main, conference and side fill. Bluetooth switch is a bit scratchy, but still connecting with limited range! Just a good speaker to have, for little cash! Note: blue LCD screen is good, the model with red screen seems to be problematic.
