FOREWORD
Dear Customer,
Welcome to the team of KX1200 users and thank you very much for expressing your confidence in BEHRINGER
products by purchasing this keyboard amplifier.
It is one of my most pleasant tasks to write this letter to you, because it is the culmination of many months of
hard work delivered by our engineering team to reach a very ambitious goal: to present you with an excellent
keyboard amplifier that gives you a maximum of flexibility and performance with its unique sound character and
comprehensive set of functions. The task of designing our new KX1200 certainly meant a great deal of
responsibility, which we assumed by focusing on you, the discerning user and musician. It also meant a lot of
work and night shifts to accomplish this goal. But it was fun, too. Developing a product usually brings a lot of
people together, and what a great feeling it is when everybody who participated in such a project can be proud
of what weve achieved.
It is our philosophy to share our joy with you, because you are the most important member of the BEHRINGER
family. With your highly competent suggestions for new products youve greatly contributed to shaping our
company and making it successful. In return, we guarantee you uncompromising quality as well as excellent
technical and audio properties at an extremely affordable price (manufactured under ISO9000 certified
management system). All of this will enable you to fully unfold your creativity without being hampered by
budget constraints.
We are often asked how we can make it possible to produce such high-grade devices at such unbelievably low
prices. The answer is quite simple: its you, our customers! Many satisfied customers mean large sales
volumes enabling us to get better conditions of purchase for components, etc. Isnt it only fair to pass this
benefit back to you? Because we know that your success is our success, too!
I would like to thank all people whose help on Project KX1200 has made it all possible. Everybody has made
very personal contributions, starting from the designers of the unit, via the many staff members in our company
to you, the users of BEHRINGER products.
My friends, its been worth the trouble!
Thank you very much,
Uli Behringer
