Behringer VQ1500D

I was looking for a sub to take out with a rock covers band for when I needed a bit more oomph than my SRM450s could provide. I was skeptical about this sub as it was very cheap, and the brand has some stigma attached - however, it was great. It gave some good bottom end to live and pre recorded tracks, and was compact enough to fit in an estate car with the rest of the gear required for the wedding party. The controls on the rear panel feel solid and well layer out - level, cross over frequency, and the option to boost a specific frequency (which I left off)

The sub is a bit of an awkward lift from floor to carrying height, which would be solved if the handles were a little off to the back, or front, but that's not a huge problem. I wouldn't have any problems recommending this sub for those who want to add some low end to their shows without breaking the bank. If the time comes, I would buy a second.

I buied this one for my friend. He has a band for mixed genres like gospel, jazz, blues and anything in between. They play a keyboard, saxophones, electromic accordion and vocals. He needed a subwoofer for the rithm section so i proposed him this one. He already has 2 15 inch PA loudspeakers so i thouth they will be a nice pair alltogether. And they are actually working very well together.

In rooms for 250 to 350 people he is still not needed to push the sub over 0 because its allready to loud for some peoples. Verry strong and sturdy.

He sends the mix in subwoofer and takes the mix crosseover from the sub to the other loudspeakers. This way the bass and subbass stays in the sub and the fullrange in the loudspeakers so everything works just as supposed to.

Thank you thoman for making this possible.

I added this item as a single sub to my pair of TS415 actives.

The combined sound filled a large village hall with 160 people there.

It creates clear punchy bass, and the cross over means the mains don't waste energy on frequencies below 150 Hz (tunable). They work well in an open air environment (used these for a small festival soundstage)

Takes a little config to get the best but well worth the time investment in getting to know what it can do for such a budget piece of kit.

Two of these and two ts415's go easily in my Volvo estate along with the dolly I use to move them.
