provides total system control, along with
dependable protection of the LF and HF
transducers, thanks to the built-in active
high-pass filter, which virtually eliminate
distortion — even at extreme operating
levels. In addition, all four models feature
an Ultra-Low Noise (ULN) Mic/Line input
with LEVEL control and a dedicated 2-band
EQ (bass/treble) for easy control.

EUROLIVE D Series loudspeakers provide
a much better power-to-weight ratio
than competing active speakers. Put
simply, you get all the power without

exceeds that of our extremely popular

plus we’ve included two 200-Watt models,
the B210D (10") and B208D (8") for less

Intelligent by design
One of the coolest things about
active loudspeakers is the lack of back-
breaking racks of amps, crossovers and
EQs that are often required to make
passive speaker systems sound almost
as good. But that comes with a trade-off
— that extra weight is transferred to the
loudspeaker, making it difficult for a single
user to heave all that mass onto the top
of a speaker stand.

Class-D technology, but our R&D Department has
been working for years to perfect our own version
with all the benefits of reduced weight and cool
running, and none of the drawbacks. That’s why
we invested over a solid year of research time
eliminating pitfalls like quantizing errors and
excess dead time, selecting just the right switching
frequency (and other equally tech-y terms).
And why we spent an equally long time testing
individual components to ensure they will stand up
to the rigors of the real world.

When combined with switching-mode power
supplies that replace heavy toroid transformers,
our new designs provide more dynamic punch
since the higher switching frequency reloads the
supply’s capacitors much faster. And, because
they are so much more efficient, the D Series runs
cooler and doesn’t require huge, heavy heat sinks.
The resulting speakers systems are much lighter,
making them easy to transport and set up. Our
no-compromise design means your D Series active
loudspeakers will deliver full power and incredible
fidelity all night long, with no need for rest cycles.
Marvelous monitoring
Low frequency response
Thanks to their trapezoidal
The EUROLIVE D Series was built with
extended low frequency handling in
mind. With a tuned port, internally braced,
injection molded enclosure, each model’s
custom-designed LF transducer (woofer)
really cranks out tight low end. Keep in
mind that bass response varies according
to LF transducer size, so the larger the
speaker, the more bass you will be able to
generate.
design, these cabinets can be laid on their
side providing the ideal angle for onstage
monitor wedge applications. Hookup is
simple, requiring only a single XLR or
¼" cable from the monitor send on your
mixing console and, of course, power.
Additional monitors can be chained
together via the XLR LINK OUTPUT jack
on the rear panel.
Instant PA system
With just a single D Series loudspeaker system
and a microphone or MP3 player, you can set
up an instant sound system. Thanks to the built-
in preamp section, you just connect a dynamic
mic and raise and lower the volume with
the Level control. Plug in your sound source,
place the speaker on a tabletop or stand, and
power up. It’s just that easy. And if you need more
coverage, simply use the convenient LINK OUTPUT
XLR connector to add more active loudspeakers.
Custom-designed transducers
Accurate non-fatiguing midrange
and treble
Let’s face it; the transducers (woofers
and tweeters) are the only part of a
sound system you actually hear, so we
don’t cut any corners. While some of
our competitors are content to buy
off-the-shelf transducers and plug them
into their boxes, we custom-design and
build our transducers from scratch. Not
only do we wind our own voice coils,
we process the paper pulp into cones
and even machine our own backplates.
This enables us to control the quality,
and frankly, make better components,
like the long-excursion LF transducers
and state-of-the-art 1.35" compression
drivers we deploy in each and every
EUROLIVE enclosure.
Even if your particular application
doesn’t include booming bass, you’ll
love the sheer accuracy of these
loudspeakers. Over a year of design
went into a exponential horn/aluminum
dome compression driver combination
that could do justice to loud hard rock
or dance music — yet could also satisfy
audiophiles with its musical timbre and
attention to detail. For spoken word,
singing or acoustical instruments, they are
un-matched for being able to articulate
complex harmonic details. In fact, many
customers think it’s the most natural-
sounding speaker they’ve ever heard at
anywhere near the price.
Stereo music system
You can even use two D Series enclosures for
stereo playback of your MP3, CD or old-skool
cassette deck without any additional hardware.
Just plug the appropriate stereo “breakout”adapter
into your deck’s output jack and run the cables to
the ¼" inputs on each loudspeaker. Set the Level
and EQ controls the same on both enclosures.
Voilà, instant party!

the speakers to their maximum with
no distortion — and without speaker
damage, thanks to active internal
protection circuits. Put simply, they will
astound you with their massive punch,
smooth mids and articulate top-end!
Physics are physics and a 15" low
frequency transducer has almost 40%
more surface area with which to move
air than a 12". A 12" has 30% more area
than a 10", and a 10" has 35% more than
an 8". So the easiest answer is “Whether to
choose one speaker cabinet over another
depends on your bass requirements.”

Which speaker do I need?
Processor controlled output
As you’ve probably noticed, we make
these active loudspeakers in four different
woofer sizes. Which one is right for you?
Dynamic processing is one of the best ways to
maximize output without sacrificing sound quality.
The D Series’built-in circuitry automatically adjusts
program content, allowing the loudspeaker to
operate at extreme levels. It accomplishes this by
reducing bass output slightly as you approach the
limit of the transducers. This frees up LF amp and
transducer resources, so that higher overall volume
can be realized. It’s like having a tiny soundman
inside each cabinet constantly monitoring and
changing output parameters. By making subtle
changes to the crossover frequency and the audio
content, the system is able to crank out more sound
— without the slightest hint of distortion.
If you’re addressing a small meeting,
or demoing the latest “slice-o-chop-o-
vegamatic”at the swap meet or county
fair, the B208D might be all the speaker
you’ll need. But if you’re providing disco
to the masses at a standing room only
nightclub — or you just need to crank
it up louder, then the B215D may be a
better choice.
Well, let’s start with your application.
Is it spoken word in a hotel ballroom?
Hard rock in a park? A folk singer or a
drum ‘n’bass DJ? Loud enough for an
18-year old or loud enough for your
grandmother? A huge auditorium or
a tiny club?

As you can see, “Bass requirements”
isn’t quite as easy an answer as it sounds.
The larger a room’s cubic volume, the
more energy is required to achieve
a given level of bass. In other words,
when playing the same tune in a big room
versus a small room, big room = less bass;
small room = more bass. Confused yet?
We suggest that you consult your
BEHRINGER dealer for more advice on
this subject, which is also a good time
to do a listening test —against their
competition and against each other.
Judge for yourself. And then own
BEHRINGER with money to spare.
