Background and Identification
The Behringer Eurolive B212D is a portable PA (public address) speaker. It is manufactured by Behringer, an audio equipment company founded in Germany, 1989 by Uli Behringer. Although originally a Germany-based manufacturer, the company migrated to manufacturing in China in 1990 to lower production costs.
The company has faced several controversies: a lawsuit by Mackie Designs Inc. in 1997, a fine by the FCC for not meeting American standards on radiation emission testing in 2006, and a video mocking music technology journalist Peter Kirn that used antisemitic imagery (the video, and Behringer’s apology, were taken down soon after the incident).
