BehringerB105D 50W 5 inch Powered Monitor Speaker

I wanted a small very portable monitor/speaker for singing. This is great. It's super lightweight. It makes a great monitor for practice. It takes an XLR mic and has another input for accompaniment. You can stream backing tracks from your phone as it is bluetooth enabled. I also use it to just listen to music. It's not that loud but it's fine for practice. There is a model (205) that has more wattage but it doesn't appear to be Bluetooth enabled. I wish this lightweight speaker came as a battery-operated product.

Behringer strikes again! When I opened the box I was immediately impressed with the weight and quality of this monitor. I tested it at home and it sounded pretty loud and clear. Would this work as a monitor on a really loud stage? I doubt it but I do not plan to use it that way. I am sure it will work great in quieter settings. Overall this will make a great monitor for a lot of applications.

I use this speaker to monitor audio backstage at corporate events and it works fine for what it is. The sound is not great but it's good enough to run teleprompter or switch cameras at a live event, but I don't think it will reproduce 60hz so I wouldn't use it to monitor record decks. It has all the analog inputs you'd commonly need and you can BT music from your phone when setting up/waiting around. It seems durable enough, but I haven't seen a "whizzer cone" speaker since Jensen Triaxial's were a thing.Bottom line is that it works fine for casual listening but it's not HiFi by any measure; I can't imagine a scenario where a musician would be happy with it.

the description here on Amazon and everywhere else on the Internet says it provides phantom power but it does not provide phantom power. you will need a $25 phantom power supply and one more XLR cable for that connection.I am not a musician, but... as an old Windows guru and electronics hobbyist...the Bluetooth is fishy. when pairing, first it identifies as "headphone" then changes to "Bluetooth". that's what you see in Bluetooth devices... "Bluetooth". yeah. after flipping the XLR phantom power device switch and hearing a loud POP from this thing, seems it had trouble turning on after that. like it took 30 seconds before it turned on... maybe there is a heat tripped fuse thingy in there or something, I dunno. about 12 hours later, now it turns on within 6 seconds. go figure.edit: I carefully rotated this thing on the desk and it spontaneously turned off. apparently a power cable connection problem. I opened it. the insides look okay, considering the workers are moving at light speed when assembling this stuff, but... the (power switch - power cable connector) circuit board is thrown on their at a 30° angle. that's just weird, and apparently they failed soldering one of the connections because of that. so I resoldered that area. will see whether the fix works in the long run. that angled soldering board obviously causes difficulty for the workers trying to solder the thing.I'm sensitive to noise. been using a cheap Marantz USB microphone for 10 years, quiet as a mouse. was very disappointed with this setup at first when connecting my expensive new microphone to the front microphone XLR input and heard a lot of hiss. woe is me. tried connecting it to the rear main XLR input with the mic button on and the hiss is gone. there is still a quiet bit of electrical/digital interference noise but it's inaudible at 3 feet. happy is me.

The media could not be loaded. I don’t know why the negetive feed back on this is but I can say 1st hand this is a powerful small speaker … it’s at 10% with a mixer connected to it and I tried putting it at 100 n it amazed me it sounds clear and it was est to put together.. just plug click the switch give it like 5 seconds n boom all set the stand you see there it’s something I had extra from a p16 I said hey why not so I used it n now it looks elegant

I was looking to add a microphone to my guitar practices at home and this little guy does what I needed and more! I just wanted a voice monitor and this is great for that but you can also plug an instrument into it, it has a thru out so you can chain them together, it has USB and Bluetooth, and a 3-band EQ. It's really amazing! Very solid construction. Looks and feels well made. Now of course with a 5" speaker you're not going to get a huge bass response and IDK if you would really want to use it as a guitar amp, but for a voice monitor it's great. Also, if you decide at some point to add a mixer or some other kind of interface you can still use this as a PA monitor, so it will still be useful! For under $100 this is pretty amazing.

I was so hopeful for this monitor, I ordered 2. I am a singer and often have trouble hearing myself over other musicians or if our sound is set up with speakers away from me. I’m not sure if I am ready for in-ear monitors but, that may be my next option.They set up super easy. It did take a few minutes to figure out the best way to use them with my mixer but, once resolved, no issues. The first time I used it, it was great. It was a duo set up with keys and my vocals. It was nice to be able to hear myself sing, without having to stand almost directly in front of the speakers. I tried again with my acoustic duo set up and this is where I noticed the flaws of the speaker sound.As far as clarity, this is where the product failed. The sound was not good quality. It was very distracting when I was singing. Both speakers did the same thing. I thought maybe it was, a fluke with one, but, when both sounded the same, I knew it was time to return and try some thing else.Another musician friend said that these were on the smaller side for what I need and to try the next level up monitor. I really enjoyed the fact that they could sit on a mic stand and be out of the way. If I can find another with a little more power and clarity, I’ll try it.They advertise this to use as actual speakers for a gig. No. Not at all. Unless you’re performing in your car and have no radio.I really wanted these to work for me!! If you need them for a professional application, pass.
