Dear Customer,
welcome to the team of
BEHRINGER users and
thank you very much for
expressing your confi-
dence in us by purchasing
the ACX1000.
Writing this foreword
for you gives me great
pleasure, because it
represents the culmi-
nation of many months
of hard work delivered
by our engineering team
to achieve a very am-
bitious goal: To present
you with an excellent
2-channel acoustic guitar
amplifier which features
authentic sound quality
and an integrated digital multi-effects device, not to forget the
professional design. The task of designing our new ACX1000
certainly meant a great deal of responsibility which we assumed
by focusing on you, the discerning user and musician. Meeting
your expectations also meant a lot of work and night shifts. But
it was fun, too. Developing a product usually brings a lot of
people together, and what a great feeling it is when all who
participated in such a project can be proud of what they’ve
achieved.
It is our philosophy to share our enjoyment with you, because
you are the most important member of the BEHRINGER team.
With your highly competent suggestions for new products you’ve
made a significant contribution 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
reasonable price. All of this will enable you to give free rein to
your creativity without being hampered by budget constraints.
We are often asked how we manage to produce such
high-quality devices at such unbelievably low prices. The answer
is quite simple: it’s you, our customers! Many satisfied customers
mean large sales volumes enabling us to get better purchasing
terms for components, etc. Isn’t it only fair to pass this benefit on
to you? Because we know that your success is our success
too!
I would like to thank all of you who have made the
ACX1000 possible. You have all made your own personal
contributions, from the developers to the many other employees
at this company, and to you, the BEHRINGER user.
My friends, it’s been worth the effort!
Thank you very much,
Uli Behringer
