BEHRINGER BX3000 - making it work (better)

Frequent user complains / drawbacks:
Sound
Weight
Handling
 
 
Sound: Just have a look on  the original construction! Power supply and power amplifier are inside the Speaker compartment! So Behringer is saving the cooling fan ;-) but you get a loss of free air volume and lots of acoustic wave reflections!
 
Solution: Kick out the old amp and power supply. At the same time improves the handling: 4kg less total weight!
 
 
Instead install SMPS 500W + Class D Amplifier (450W) inside housing, fan,  switch (and cross over for tweeter), keep the instrument signal processing board
 
 
 
 
Sound: Install horizontal stiffener bar for improved sound and provide openings for tweeters
 
Handling: Install lateral handling bars for easy carrying. See venting grills.
