Conceived and designed by
BEHRINGER Germany

The EP2000 and EP4000 represent
everything musicians love about our
popular EP1500/EP2500—excellent
sound quality, road-worthy toughness
and reliability, low-noise operation
and incredible power. With 2,000 and
4,000-Watts respectively, the EP2000
and EP4000 amplifiers are perfect for
medium-sized club gigs, mobile PA
systems, church services or public spaces.

amplifier without overdriving either it
or your speaker system. Built-in circuitry
automatically senses when the EP2000 or
EP4000 is being overdriven into “clipping”
and then momentarily reduces the input
level to avoid clipping distortion. This all
happens in a few thousandths of a second,
so it’s an inaudible way of avoiding audible
clipping distortion. Of course, you can turn
the Limiter off if you’re feeling lucky.

Everything you need, nothing you don’t

Ultra-low frequency sounds
(infrasonics) are caused by rickety stage
vibrations, mic thumps and wind noise.
While technically inaudible, they can
cause a huge drain on amp power,
potential damage to your speakers
and a sludgy sound in the audible
bass ranges. Both EP models feature a
defeatable Low Cut Filter that chops
off unwanted frequencies below
50Hz or 30Hz (depending on your PA
system’s capabilities).

The über-simple front panel controls
of these amps give you all of your sound’s
vital signs at a glance. After flipping
the MAIN switch, the POWER LED will
light when the amp is ready for action.
Both channels have independent gain
dials as well as clip LEDs that indicate
when the signal is distorted and you need
to reduce the gain. There are also SIGNAL
LEDs that light up when a signal is present
at the input.
Panel discussion
A panel of switches found on the
back panel offers an array of cool
options to apply to both channels of
the EP2000 and EP4000. The Clip Limiter
lets you get even more out of the

The same panel contains the switches
that allow you to put these amps to
work in either stereo or bridge (mono)
mode. Both the EP2000 and EP4000 can
be linked to additional power amps by
switching into parallel mode.

These amps have guts
There’s plenty of awesome features
on the outside of the EP2000 and
EP4000, but there’s also a team of cool
components on the inside helping it
work its magic. They come loaded with
famously reliable Toshiba/Fairchild power
transistors as well as a high-current
toroidal transformer for ultra-high
transient response and further reliability.
Independent DC and thermal overload
protection on each channel automatically
protects the amplifier and speakers from
any show-stopping meltdowns. There’s
no need for fuses, giving you one fewer
potential mid-gig headache.

EUROPOWER
EP4000/EP2000

The EP2000 and EP4000 have
both XLR and ¼" TRS inputs. Even the
outputs are totally flexible, consisting
of Speakon-compatible outputs and
five-way binding posts. Whether you’re
dealing with bare wire or boutique
audiophile cabling, the EP2000 and
EP4000 are right at home.
The exhaust fan, visible on the back
panel, is the final stage of an internal
back-to-front cooling system that
keeps these amps working in the mild
temperatures they love, even through
periods of extended use. Finally, an impactresistant, all-steel 2U rack-mount chassis
helps these workhorses stand up to all the
rigors of the road.

EUROPOWER
EP4000/EP2000
Accelerated Transient Response delivers the
knock-out punch
It takes huge pulses of energy (current and
voltage) to propel a woofer cone out fast

enough to match a bass beat. That’s called
Transient Response and it’s the holy grail
of amp designers. By carefully selecting
transistors with extremely high slew rates
and optimizing other proprietary parts of
our circuitry, our amps are able to react
instantly to even the most demanding
electronic bass impulses. If the woofers
in your PA system can keep up, your
audience will hear a tighter, crisper, more
natural sound.

The legend powers on
If you read the reviews of the EP2000
and EP4000’s older brothers, the EP1500
and EP2500, and it’s clear that those
amps are renowned not only for their
performance and durability, but also their
astoundingly low price tags. The EP2000
and EP4000 extend that legacy to the
next level. Why shell out for a “Brand-X”
amp when you can get a BEHRINGER
EUROPOWER amp and have money
left over for other gear?
