Behringer Europower PMP500Mp3

Behringer Europower PMP500MP3 — 500W All-in-One Powered Mixer

The Behringer Europower PMP500MP3 is an ultra-compact 500W 8-channel powered mixer that combines a Class-D amplifier, mixer, MP3 player, and digital reverb into a single 3 kg unit. With 500W of stereo output, it fills clubs, bars, coffee shops, and event spaces. Channels 1–4 accept balanced XLR microphones while stereo channels 5/6 and 7/8 handle line-level sources. The PMP500MP3 is the right choice for mobile performers.

What Sets the PMP500MP3 Apart

Unlike most powered mixers in this tier, the PMP500MP3 ships with a built-in USB MP3 player and a wireless dongle port for the Behringer ULTRALINK ULM Series. The onboard Klark Teknik digital reverb adds polish. Voice-Over-Priority ducks the stereo channels when a microphone is active.

Amplification and Power — Headroom for Live Performance

The integrated Class-D amplifier delivers 2 × 250W peak at 4 ohms, enough to drive a pair of passive PA cabinets. A flexible switching power supply keeps the rig lightweight while producing low-noise audio and superior transient response.

• Amplifier Power: 2 × 250 W peak at 4 ohms — drives a pair of passive speakers without external amps
• Amplifier Class: Class-D — high efficiency in a compact, lightweight chassis that runs cool
• Auto Limiter: Built-in — protects speakers and amplifier from clipping damage

Mixer Section and Connectivity — Inputs for a Small Band

The 8-channel (4 mono / 2 stereo) mixer section provides enough headroom for vocals, acoustic instruments, keyboards, and playback. Four XENYX mic preamps deliver transparent amplification, while switchable +48V phantom power supports studio-grade condenser microphones.

• Inputs: MIC/Line — handles both microphone and instrument-level signals
• Mic Preamps: 4 × XENYX — clean, transparent amplification praised by audio professionals
• Phantom Power: +48V switchable — powers condenser microphones for studio-quality capture

Effects, MP3 Playback, and Wireless — Built-In Performance Tools

The onboard digital reverb, MP3 player, and wireless-ready USB port eliminate outboard gear in most small-venue setups. A global Music/Speech EQ switch tailors system response for spoken-word events or musical performance.

• Built-In Effects: Klark Teknik digital reverb — adds studio-grade polish to vocals and instruments
• MP3 Player: USB-A playback with 4-button pad — handles break music, backing tracks, and karaoke
• Wireless: ULTRALINK ULM Series ready (2.4 GHz digital) — license-free wireless microphone expansion

Who the Behringer Europower PMP500MP3 Is Built For

Solo performers, acoustic duos, mobile DJs, and event hosts will find the PMP500MP3 a practical all-in-one PA rig. Coffee-shop gigs, bar nights, school events, and corporate presentations benefit from the unit's 500W of stereo power, four mic preamps, and plug-and-play MP3 playback. Solo singers can plug in a condenser mic, a keyboard, and a USB stick of backing tracks and be ready in minutes. Event hosts get clean speech reinforcement.
