transducers to their limits without
even the slightest hint of distortion.
Best of all, our Class-D amplifiers use
SMPS (Switch-Mode Power Supplies),
which don’t need massive transformers
and heat sinks, making the NEO Series
ultracompact and highly-efficient.
plastic composite material provides
excellent sound even at extreme
sound pressure levels:
active loudspeakers are destined to
become the new standard in high-quality
live sound reproduction. Packed with
1,200 Watts of biamped Class-D output
and SMPS (Switch-Mode Power Supplies),
these brutes provide massive low-end
punch, with the kind of high-fidelity
definition and clarity typically reserved
for much larger systems. NEO Series
loudspeakers provide the best power-
to-weight ratio of any speaker system
we’ve created to date!

First, let’s establish one thing—both
models put out plenty of bass. But physics
are physics and a 15" low frequency
transducer has almost 40% more surface
area with which to move air than a 12".
So with a 15" loudspeaker, you can move
more air with the same amount of power
and generate more bass.
or you want to crank it up louder, then
the B815NEO may be a better choice.
Up to a point…
The larger a room’s cubic volume,
the more energy is required to achieve
any given desired level of bass. In other
words, when playing the same music
in a big room versus a small room,
Instant PA System
With just a single NEO loudspeaker system and
one or two dynamic microphones, you can set
up an instant sound system. The onboard mixer
features a LEVEL control for each input and a
dual-band master EQ, complete with an adjustable
Low Cut filter to help eliminate annoying breath
pops and mic handling noise. An additional filter,
which we call Contour, allows you to select Speech
(for enhanced voice intelligibility), or Music for the
broader frequency range required for the high-
fidelity reproduction of music. And if you need
more coverage, you can chain together as many as
you like via the convenient LINE OUT XLR connector.
If you’re amplifying a sales presentation big room = less bass; small room = more
with a single mic in the boardroom, or an
acoustic guitar at the coffee house, the
B812NEO or B912NEO will probably be
all the speaker system you’ll ever need.
But if your music has more bass in it —
bass. For really large performances or
venues, you may find that you will need to
add subwoofers to your setup to achieve
the desired level of bass impact. But more
on that later…

Low Frequency Response
1.75"
The EUROLIVE NEO Series was built with
extended low frequency handling in mind.
Thanks to a tuned port, internally braced,
injection-molded enclosure, each model’s
custom-designed LF (Low Frequency) transducer
really cranks out tight bottom 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.

Why Are There Two 12" Versions
in the Neo Series?
From a technical and functional aspect, the
B812NEO and B912NEO are identical. They have
exactly the same amplifiers, transducers, DSP,
frequency response and basic construction.
The B912NEO is designed for applications where
a more conservative appearance may be desired,
such as in churches, restaurants, businesses, etc.

MIC/LINE 2 input to connect the monitor
signal from the PA mixing console, so that
you can also hear the other members
of your band. This opens up lots of
possibilities. If you want to use more
than two instruments, you will need a
submixer (e.g. XENYX X1204USB) to mix
down the signals to one feed.
Cutoff switch that puts the system into
standby mode when no signal is detected
for more than three (3) minutes.
Value
When it comes to serious bang for your
buck, it’s hard to beat the NEO Series—and
the sound quality is second to none! Stop
by your BEHRINGER dealer today, compare
them to the competition and find out how
easy it is to take home a pair.
More Than Just a PA Loudspeaker...
When laid on their side, NEO Series loudspeakers
tilt to the ideal angle for onstage monitor wedge
applications. Hookup is simple, requiring only a
single cable from the monitor send on the mixing
console and, of course, power. Additional monitors
can be chained together via the XLR LINE OUT jack
on the loudspeaker’s rear panel.
Conservation of Energy
Because of the NEO Series’
high-efficiency Class-D amplifier
and switch-mode power supply
technology, these loudspeakers waste
less energy than conventional active
systems, putting out more sound and
generating significantly less heat!
For even more energy conservation,
each NEO loudspeaker has a handy Timed
For a rump-shaking romp into sonic
wonderland, team up a pair of NEO Series
loudspeakers with our amazing new
active subwoofers, the B1500D-PRO
or B1800DPRO. Be sure to check with
local authorities to make sure you’re
nowhere near a seismic fault. These babies
really rock!
NEO Series loudspeakers also make excellent
onstage monitors for keyboards, acoustic guitars,
or any line-level instrument for that matter. You can
plug your instrument into MIC/LINE 1 and use the
