Behringer Europower EP2000

The EP2000 and EP4000 represent everything musicians love about our popular EP1500 and EP2500—excellent sound quality, road-worthy toughness and reliability, low-noise operation and incredible power. With 2,000 and 4,000-Watts respectively, the EP2000 and EP4000 amplifiers are perfect amplifiers for medium-sized club gigs, mobile PA systems, church services or public spaces.

The über-simple front panel controls of these amps give you all of your sound’s vital signs at a glance. After flipping the Main switch, the Power LED will light when the amp is ready for action. Both channels have independent gain dials as well as Clip LEDs that indicate when the signal is distorted and you need to reduce the gain. There are also Signal LEDs that light up when a signal is present at the input.

A panel of switches found on the back panel offers an array of cool options to apply to both channels of the EP2000 and EP4000. The Clip Limiter lets you get even more out of the amplifier without overdriving either it or your speaker system. Built-in circuitry automatically senses when the EP2000 or EP4000 is being overdriven into “clipping” and then momentarily reduces the input level to avoid clipping distortion. Since this all happens in just a few thousandths of a second, it’s the ideal way to avoid audible clipping distortion. 

Rickety stage vibrations, mic thumps and wind noise can cause ultra-low frequency sounds, or infrasonics. While technically inaudible, they can cause a huge drain on amp power, potential damage to your speakers and a sludgy sound in the audible bass ranges. Both EP models feature a defeatable Low Cut Filter that chops off unwanted frequencies below 50 Hz or 30 Hz (depending on your PA system’s capabilities). The same panel contains the switches that put these amps to work in either Stereo or Bridge (mono) mode. Both the EP2000 and EP4000 can be linked to additional power amps by switching into Parallel mode.
