Behringer Powerplay PM1

The Behringer Powerplay PM1 is equipped with an XLR input socket designed for unbalanced stereo signals and equipped with a retaining mechanism, so it is not important that the signal cable is routed downwards (there is a small metal button on the base of the device to disconnect the XLR plug). This ensures that the Behringer Powerplay PM1 is always supplied with an input signal reliably and safely. The output is a mini-jack socket of the type most commonly used for in-ear headphones. For all these reasons and more, this compact headphone amplifier is also ideal for monitoring earphones.

The Behringer Powerplay PM1 is an ultra-compact portable volume controller for headphones. It is an indispensable tool when a performer is on the move but still needs to adjust the volume of the signal coming from their in-ear or headphones. The PM1 features a sturdy metal housing, a solid metal belt clip, and a metal output jack with a locking plate: This makes the headphone amplifier durable enough for regular performances on stage or frequent sessions in the rehearsal room. It is a passive volume controller that does not require operating voltage, so it does not require a battery or charger.

Founded in Germany by Uli Behringer and now manufactured in China, the company has been known for its affordable, high-value equipment since its first product, the Studio Exciter F. Mixing consoles (such as the Eurodesk MX8000), signal processors, and later sound reinforcement and monitoring equipment have enabled countless musicians to equip home studios, rehearsal rooms, and mobile PA systems within previously unimaginable budgets. Acquisitions of other companies, including Midas, Klark Teknik, and TC Electronic, have resulted in the addition of new product lines and have also led to the incorporation of these companies' technical expertise into product development.
