BEHRINGER’s heavily anticipated EUROCOM Install line launches with an event in Boom, Belgium

December 26, 2011 – Bothell, WA – BEHRINGER’s world-wide rollout of the EUROCOM Install line continues with the completion of the second unveiling event in Boom, Belgium. Drawing dozens of attendees from across the EMEA region, the showcase presentation and demo event was held at the ultra-modern headquarters of Belgian distributor FACE BVBA.

MUSIC Group Senior VP of Marketing Costa Lakoumentas lead the presentation with an extensive look at the features and specifications of the products ranging from the TN6232 Zero-Configuration Feedback Suppressor to the CL Series Sound Reinforcement Loudspeakers. Also presented were the MA6000 Series Auto-Mixer/Amplifiers and the compact SN2108/2408 Integrated Mixer/Amplifiers among other models.

Participants were also treated to a first-ever live demonstration of several products and features, including EUROCOM’s impressive Automatic Mixing algorithm embedded inside the MA6000 series. Loudspeaker listening demos included the ST Series Ceiling Monitors and culminated with a concert-level performance of the CL Series SR models. Despite the massive dimensions of the presentation space, EUROCOM speakers delivered on their promise of performance.

Commented MUSIC Group founder and CEO Uli Behringer “We have invested over 2 years of development time and massive resources into the EUROCOM line. What we have delivered is not only the industry’s most innovative and forward-looking commercial install product range, but also a new vision of what is possible when “me-too” just isn’t good enough.”

EUROCOM products are part of the BEHRINGER brand and are sold by authorized Distributors and Systems Integrators across the globe. As part of the MUSIC Group, BEHRINGER shares technology, manufacturing and IP with other company brands including MIDAS CONSOLES, KLARK TEKNIK and BUGERA, as well as the EUROSOUND range of consumer electronics products.

Exclusive Front of House Magazine interview with BEHRINGER

Click the link above to view an exclusive interview conducted by Front of House Magazine! FOH editor Dan Daley speaks with CEO Uli Behringer and VP of Installed and Commercial Sound Costa Lakoumentas about BEHRINGER’s entry into the installed sound business with EUROCOM.

June 8, 2010 – BEHRINGER introduces two new product families within its EUROCOM installed product line aimed at applications requiring robust and powerful integrated mixer-amplifiers, mixers and complementary power amplifiers. The MA4000 and MA6000 series combine a fresh and modern aesthetic design with innovative technologies which will set new standards in distributed system designs. With a focus on sustainability, both product families employ high efficiency electronics, resulting in significantly lower power consumption and operating costs. Aimed at enabling LEED certified applications, they also create a vastly smaller carbon footprint than conventional products built around legacy technologies.

The MA4000 series includes integrated mixer-amplifiers, a rack mountable mixer and complementary power amplifiers at various power levels. Key features include universal inputs that accept microphone, line or auxiliary sources without need for optional input modules. Designed for integration into distributed speech and music systems, the MA4000 series integrates extensive signal routing, priority muting, dedicated paging input and both record and zone 2 outputs, allowing systems integrators to deliver unprecedented value and performance.

For applications requiring a higher level of sophistication and capability, the MA6000 series will set a new standard for integrated mixer-amplifiers. The extensive feature set includes eight universal inputs with individual two-band equalization, direct outputs and adaptive proportional gain automatic mixing for use in speech reinforcement systems that can be expanded to accommodate up to 32 inputs. In addition, four auxiliary inputs are provided with intuitive front panel selectors to allow users to quickly and easily select between music sources. Equipped with remote volume control, source selection and system power, the MA6000 series is aimed at installations in conference centers, council chambers, courtroom, hotel meeting rooms and many other venues.

Both series include BEHRINGER’s proprietary Dual-Mono™ technology which provides two independent power amplifier channels within each enclosure. One channel is dedicated to low impedance loads, while the other simultaneously drives 70/100V loads at equal power. Applications that can benefit from this technology include those where high performance low impedance speakers are used for one area while distributed speakers can serve another, without need for additional power amplifiers.

BEHRINGER’s EUROCOM line also includes an extensive range of in-ceiling and on-wall distributed speakers allowing integrators to choose a single source for even the most sophisticated applications.

Saving the Planet – One Watt at a Time

June 8, 2010 – In an industry where value is key and economy is critical, the BEHRINGER EUROCOM SN2000 Series delivers on both fronts. Whether you have a straightforward application, such as paging and background music, or a more complex install in a conference room or presentation facility, the SN2000 series provides feature-rich performance in a compact, stylish and easy-to-use mixer-amplifier. When compared to conventional Class AB systems, the SN2000 Series’ high-efficiency design can significantly reduce operating costs, creating a smaller carbon footprint – while providing superb audio quality and increased functionality over existing systems.

The SN2000 Series consists of six (6) integrated mixer-amplifiers, each with three (3) Mic/Line and two (2) Music/Program inputs in a variety of output power options. The series boasts an expansive feature set including High/Low frequency EQ, variable voice-activated muting, dual amplifier channels, dual-zone output, pre-amp I/O and much more.

Armed with state-of-the-art switch-mode power supplies and Class D amplifiers, dual-channel models can simultaneously drive 4Ω loads and 70/100 V distributed speaker networks without additional equipment – and thanks to the sleek design approach and unique aesthetic, they will actually complement the room visually. A comprehensive new line of ceiling- and wall-mount speakers augments the BEHRINGER EUROCOM SN2000 product line.
