4. INSTALLATION

4.1 Speaker connector

When combining several speakers/cabinets, you should bear in mind the resulting overall impedance. Here are some brief explanations about different kinds of connections:

Serial connection: The individual impedance values of the connected speakers are added up. If two 4-Ohm speakers are connected to one another, there is an overall impedance value of 8 Ohms.

Parallel connection: If speaker/cabinets with identical impedance values are connected in parallel, the overall nominal impedance is reversely proportional to the number of speakers, e.g. if you connect two speakers/cabinets, the nominal impedance is halved; if you connect three speakers/cabinets, the nominal impedance is one third of the individual speakers’ impedance; with four speakers, it’s one quarter, and so on. For example, this way you can turn two 8-Ohm systems into one 4-Ohm system.

If four or more speakers/cabinets need to be connected, this can be done using a serial parallel connection. With four speakers with an impedance value of 4 Ohms each, the resulting overall impedance does not change.

+Whenever possible, try to use thick and short speaker cables to minimize power loss. Don’t lay output cables near input cables.

Wiring options for loudspeakers are additionally explained in the following illustrations and tables.

BA410 specifications

The Behringer BA410 is an impressive bass cabinet designed to meet the needs of both amateur and professional musicians. Known for its powerful sound, portability, and advanced features, the BA410 is a versatile choice for bassists of all genres.

One of the standout features of the BA410 is its four custom-designed 10-inch woofers, which deliver deep, punchy low frequencies that are essential for any bass performance. These woofers offer a balanced sound profile, enabling clear articulation of notes even in the lower registers. Complementing these drivers is a powerful 1-inch tweeter that provides additional clarity and definition for high-frequency sounds, ensuring that the entire tonal spectrum is well represented.

The cabinet is constructed from high-quality materials, offering durability while remaining lightweight. This makes it easy for musicians to transport the BA410 to gigs and rehearsals. Additionally, the cabinet is designed with a rear bass reflex port, which enhances low-end response and improves overall efficiency. This innovative design feature aids in producing a full, rich sound without sacrificing portability.

Another significant aspect of the BA410 is its compatibility with a variety of amplifiers. With a power handling capacity of up to 800 watts, it can handle high-output signals without distortion. This allows bassists to use powerful amplifiers for larger performances or venues while ensuring sound quality remains intact.

The BA410 also features convenient stackability due to its compact size. Musicians can easily combine the cabinet with other Behringer models or their choice of rigs to create a full bass stack. Additionally, the cabinet is equipped with multiple input options, accommodating different configurations depending on the players' needs.

In terms of aesthetics, the BA410 has a sleek, modern look that fits in well with any stage or studio setup. The robust grille protects the speakers while giving it a professional appearance.

Ultimately, the Behringer BA410 is a reliable and powerful bass cabinet that brings high-quality sound and innovative features to musicians. With its combination of advanced technologies and practical usability, it stands out as a strong contender in the competitive world of bass amplifiers and cabinets. Whether you are playing small gigs or larger shows, the BA410 delivers the performance you need to showcase your bass skills.
