It doesn't matter "what time it is". As has been explained many times before, the amp will put out its full power at any "o'clock". What you are mistakenly calling a "volume" pot simply adjusts the input level and has nothing to do with output. The amp will put out its full power regardless of the physical position of the knob.

but keep posting until you understand how and why you fried the speaker due to OE>
 
Re: Behringer iNUKE NU6000 amplifier

It can be as simple as that the mic cable was disconnected/connected due to bad connection or bad mic cable during the karaoke and that the resulting pop shooted the speaker. Think guitarist/bass player disconnecting their cable with a very large pop!

It doesen't have to be too loud volume to this unless protective limiters was engaged. As said before the gain controls does not limit the output. They act like any master fader on you mixer.

A loud pop is more likely to have killed your speaker rather than some loud continous signal...

But Robert....

He had a sign on the gear saying "Do Not Touch". Surely that should have protected the system from any damage by the users....

Ahhh, you're right.

Sorry, then I'm out of fresh idéas unless the karaoke singer was blind and the sign wasn't printed in braille.

While we are on the topic of reading. Why does all piece of gear have manuals for surgeons? Or are the vast majority of people interested in medicine and enjoy reading operating instructions/manuals?!

Dear Albert,

This sounds like the diode issue, which requires a simple modification.
Please PM me here or contact [email protected] so we can get it fixed.

Did you reply to Joe when he responded to your first posts?
 
Re: Behringer iNUKE NU6000 amplifier

Kudo's to Yuka over at the care center, the local distributor didn't stock the 15 inch woofer replacement for the VP2520's and apparently I ordered a woofer for the B2520 as it was all they had and very similar in spec, I got a mail from Yuka saying, "not that one !", we'll make sure the distributor gets you the right woofer for the VP2520 and it has a much better base response, they will be contacting you shortly, see Yuka I only rant because I care, BTW beers on me

David, it only takes one drop of the mic on the floor to make the coil former hit the back plate hard enough and do that damage.
Where is your HPF set at?

Must amps used to have switchable HPFs that were serviceable enough - it sucks that the new crop of cheaper, higher powered amps don't have them. The built-in crossovers many have now are dangerous and a dis-service to the end user without there also being a HPF for the sub :( . I think it was the QSC GX series that started this trend - shame on them!

:lol: I know the time that crown psa2 amplifiers also amplified DC (jack inputs) voltages. Not really a cheap amplifier at that time...
 
Re: Behringer iNUKE NU6000 amplifier

The HPF is a built in x-over in the VP2520 cabinets. I think it's at 1.5K or something to that effect. Don't have any real control over this.
The ultracurve pro I use between the board and the EP4000 is pretty much set flat except have taken down everything under 50hz and above 20Khz.

For your HF driver, not for the (burned) LF speaker / woofer.

This is what they mean, the HPF for the woofer. If you take down everything under 50Hz, then you should be good to go. Best is to use the HPF, 50Hz for the HPF should be a safe value, if you know what you're doing a bit lower could also be ok, but it depends very much on the power. So with such a high power amplifier, I would keep it at 50Hz.
It also depends largely on what sort of HPF you have, 12dB or maybe 24dB octave can make really some difference.
 
Re: Behringer iNUKE NU6000 amplifier

Dear Guys,

I wanted to update the forum community regarding posts related to Albert’s iNuke power amp. His situation was anything but a typical repair. The amplifier was purchased in the US and the customer had it shipped to the Caribbean (Dominica). Our warranty program only covers the unit in the country where the product was purchased, in this case the US. Our CARE people strive to help customers in 48 hours. In this situation, shipping the unit from his location would have cost $300. Obviously not an option for an amp that sells for $399. It took some time for the customer to furnish his receipt, which we received this week. We were able to send him the parts free of charge to his US ship-to address, which he can use to get a local service shop in his region to perform the repair.

It is our top priority that our end-users get the most out of every MUSIC Group purchase.

Hey Behringer, thanks for getting us the replacement woofer earlier than the distributors January 8th stated eta, it arrived yesterday. Just to confirm I blew the center one in the VP2520 and have rewired it off the internal crossover with red on plus and blue on minus speaker input. Can someone confirm this is correct please.

Thanks again,
 
Re: Behringer iNUKE NU6000 amplifier

I recently purchased an inuke6000 for testing. This amp is very stable, has good thermal behaviour, other amps get very hot but this one stays very cool when putting out the same power.

Only thing that bothers me is the high sensitivity.
use the behringer DCX2496 processor, but I have to turn the limiter almost to -24db to keep the inuke out of clipping.

I don't know if it is that high.

Consider that the DCx2496s limiter is not based on a reference dB-but rather the dB level that is below max output or clipping of the DCX2496.

So if the output is +22, then 24dB down is -2dBu. If you consider that historically amps could be driven to full output with either a 0 or +4, then -2 is either 2 or 6dB off.

So that may be a little bit on the high side.

But also consider that it may be a bit of "marketing" so that it "seems" as if the amp is "louder"-as compared to other amps that take a higher level to be driven to full output.

There are lots of people that "assume" a amp with a higher sensitivity is actually louder.
