Default Does anyone have a schematic for a Behringer CX3400

Thread title is self-explanatory.


The local venue's crossover has developed a fault where
the LF outs are quite distorted. I dare say it would
likely be an easy fix but the difficulty of obtaining a
schematic is a problem.


In the US, the CX3400 sells for about $130. Most professional service
operations charge $60 or more per hour, often more like twice that. Just
getting an estimate will cost about the same or more than the piece is worth
as used equipment. And if you fix it, its value goes from zero to about the
same as what you paid to fix it, which is the same as the cost for a used
but working version of it. This leads to the question, why ever fix it?

The logical question is whether you buy new, buy something more expensive,
or buy used.

I'd also phone Behringer's UK service agent for a quote
if I knew if they have one. Does anyone know who does it
? Mind you, with the packaging long ago thrown away, it's
not very practical to send it the length of the country.


Poor service support is definitely Behringer's achilles heel.


At the price points of Behringer's lower cost products, the only time you
repair them is in warranty, if you can do it at Behringer's expense.
