My Behringer pmp2000 is now only giving an output through the tweeter horns of my speakers so the sound is very tinny. Any suggestions as to what might be wrong?

Reading the instructions and trying different combinations of connections

Your woofers are probably blown. To check plug a 1/4 inch or speakon into the speaker cabinet with the two bare wires exposed on the opposite end and touch with a 9volt flat battery if the driver doesn't move ir sound it's blown

Your main speakers have blown, or cable connection has rattled itself out of place. Open it up and have a look, should be pretty easy to figure out whats what once opened.

SOURCE: There is no sound being sent to the speakers and

Check if sound to headphone jack is normal. If so, try the headphones in the MAIN out 1/4 inch jacks. If there is sound (it will be a lot less as this is a line level output), then the power amps are probably popped... and maybe the main power supply. The auxilary runs all the visible stuff.

If under warranty, take it for repair. Behringer doesn't provide schematics so working on these is a problem. In the PMP5000 there is a chronic problem of insulation breakdown on the rear most amp that can wipe out the power supply as well as the switching transistors in the amplifier. (This is a class D switching/ energy recovery type amp).

SOURCE: behringer pmp2000. I have Yamaha passive monitor

The outputs are usually just for the front of house speakers - the monitors usually need their own amps.

Check the manual.

You have 1200 watss of power - so keep the volumes REALLY LOW to try things out - otherwise your speakers could be blown by the amp.

SOURCE: I have a Behringer PMP6000 Board. It is connected

Since all your speakers are passive, indeed there is a problem like what you describe. This is because with the same amount of signal from the board's speakers outputs, the 2520 can't play the same amount of audio with the PASW18. I don't know what other equipment is available (if any) so let me give you some suggestions.
1. Connect in parallel the 2520s at one of the board's output and do the same with the PASW18 at the other channel output. Doing this you will be able to handle one channel (e.g. left) for the main speakers level and the other channel (right) for the sub speakers level. No stereo playback, so set all the inputs to mono.
2. Use another separate amplifier to drive the subs. You have to provide signal to the amp from any LINE LEVEL OUTPUT from the board (using mono is a very good idea since low frequencies have no stereo separation and in this case you could use a single channel amplifier for both subs, parallel connection)

If there is available more equipment post me back in details to give you guide lines.
In case of a problem or clarification or further details needed (connection diagram e.t.c.), don't hesitate to post me a reply before rejecting my answer.
If you are satisfied, accept my solution.

Thanks and regards

SOURCE: Behringer Europower PMP2000 Fuse keeps

For goodness sakes do NOT replace the fuse... doing so causes more damage inside. Likely one of the power amps has shorted and may have damaged the power supply as well. Also please read my tip on Fixya regarding a HAZARD with channel A if you use 1/4 inch plugs with the speaker cables. Essentially the sleeve of the channel A plug is the hot, and not the tip. Ground the sleeve of the plug and you can blow the channel A amp. YOU WILL NEED TO TAKE THE UNIT IN FOR REPAIR... THIS IS NOT A DIY REPAIR!!!!

SOURCE: I need to know where can I purchase a fuse for

If the fuse blew, you ARE going to need a lot more than a fuse as the cause is usually internal damage to the amp module and or power supply. Replacing the fuse without repairing the cause USUALLY causes more damage.

Where are the main speaker cables connected to in a behinger europower pmp 2000 mixer amp

The Behringer PMP2000 uses Speakon jacks on the speaker cables. The outputs are located on the back panel. Which ones you use is determined by how you configure the mixer. The Main inputs are located on the right side of the face of the mixer.

How can I service Behringer epa900 speaker

Can't say for sure....there should be a bunch of screws in the back so you can gain access....is this a powered cabinet??...can you dis-connect the present speaker and horn and hook up another just to make a test?? Is the cabinet plastic?? There could be loose screws....Does the cabinet have a recess for a stand??If so, check the retaining screws in that as well....and don't forget to check the grill....

Bass went out

The 15 inch woofer is blown and you are hearing only the tweeter horn. I would definitely check that speaker on something else though, because the amps inside will also blow fairly easy, and you can't get parts for these. I would salvage what you can and move on. If both speakers work alone, check connections and amp. If you find that the 15 does work, then make an unpowered monitor. Behringer does not give any referencing of any parts. They have all special part numbers that you can't crossreference to find replacements. This is a marketing strategy to eliminate others from repairing, so you will buy another one. They think they would sell more but it just turns musicians away from their junk. The only piece of behringer equipment worth using is the FCB1010 controller and nothing else.

Brand new, distorts intermittingly. Used same Speakers with other similer amps Mackie 808 Yamaha etc. with no problem . It sounds good when it does''nt distort

Common causes of this are improper level setup. You MAY be overdriving the inputs. Use the pad buttons to limit the input for higher output devices. Saturating the input(s) will cause bad distortion. Observe if any of the clip indicators are coming on. If they do, then use the pad buttons. If they still come on due to very high output device, you MAY have to use an external attenuator. Every mixer has different characteristics and some can accept a wider inout range than others.
