Behringer 1C-BK Passive Monitor Speakers at a Glance:
  • High-precision components deliver incredible sound quality
  • Behringer - a brief history
High-precision components deliver incredible sound quality

1C-BK passive monitor speakers derive their massive sound from powerful 5.5" cellulose cone woofers and high-resolution 0.5" tweeters. Built with high-precision components, these speakers exhibit absolute phase linearity, delivering exceptionally clear sound reproduction and excellent frequency response from 60Hz all the way up to 23kHz. On top of that, you won't have to worry about blowing the 1C-BK's tweeters, thanks to the auto-overload protection that's built into these speakers' low-distortion, phase-optimized crossovers. In other words, these little guys sound great!

Behringer - a brief history

Uli Behringer showed an interest in music technology design at a young age, building his own synthesizer by the age of 16. In 1982, Uli began studying sound engineering and classical piano at the Robert Schumann Conservatory in Dusseldorf, Germany. Uli's defining moment came when he was repairing a signal processor made by a high-end manufacturer. Despite the processor's expensive price tag, Uli realized that its internal components could be bought for a fraction of the cost. Being a strapped-for-cash student, Uli began building his own signal processors. Before he knew it, other students began requesting equipment from him. In 1989, after being bombarded with more orders than he could handle by himself, Uli created Behringer, Inc.

Behringer 1C-BK Passive Monitor Speakers Features:
  • Ultra-linear design delivers exceptionally clear sound reproduction and excellent frequency response
  • High power handling capabilities provide full-range output with extremely low distortion
  • Phase-optimized and high-precision crossovers for absolute phase linearity
  • Auto-overload protection prevents tweeter damage and resets automatically

Reviews

Perfect
These work perfectly with my home stereo. I only had a small area to add speakers behind my seating area. These fit the bill and add perfect balance to the sound.
Music background: Hobby musician. I have the ear, but not the talent.
Behringer makes quality affordable
Behringer was a company I had never heard of a few years ago. Back when I was on a budget I decided to try some of their gear. I was so pleased that over the past few years I have purchased more Behringer gear.

I have my new Roland JDXI synthesizer running through a Behringer QX1202 USB mixer and power my Behringer 1C-BK monitors with a Behringer Europower PMP550M 5 channel amp. I use a Behringer Mini FX effects processor and for my Korg I3 workstation I have a Behringer K450FX keyboard amp.

If you have never tried Behringer before, take my word for it......Behringer makes quality products at very affordable prices. It is built to last and their products are designed "out of the box" like musicians would design. Behringer is perfect for the home musician.....small in size and price, big on quality and sound.

GOOD SOUNDING COMPACT INEXPENSIVE PASSIVE SPEAKERS
I got these to replace a well aged set of JBL Control series which look almost identical. I power them with an older Behringer 250 watt stereo monitor amp (no fan) and augment with an 8" powered subwoofer. Even without the sub these speakers sound very smooth and natural. In my application I have no physical space for plugs to stick out the rear and there is no ac power where they're located, passive was the only choice. Behringer has these dialed in very well, they were worth the wait to come back into stock.

Good Music To You!

Great sound for the price !
Great sound for the price ! The sweetest part is that legendary Sweetwater customer service
These things SING!
I LOVE these speakers! These things SING!
I bought 8ohm speakers and a sub and a small tube amp. When the amp came, a bright yellow sticker saying " OUTPUT 4 OHMS!) greeted me upon opening it! I Googled 4 ohm speakers, and saw these. The specs were impressive, but I wasn't expecting them to be so SWEET! I stayed up late Christmas morning, playing AV Elf to install for my folks who previously listened to music through their Echo Plus. HUGE HIT, HUGE DIFFERENCE! They LOVE IT! I bought another flexible amp for my 8ohm speakers that will also play at 4 ohms. They sounded even better with more power! Gonna buy another pair and replicate system for a friend. THANKS SWEETWATER!!!
