Behringer CE500D Active Commercial Installed Speaker

The Behringer CE500D is a 100W active commercial installed speaker built for restaurants, shops, exhibition halls, and any venue that needs reliable background music or paging without a rack of gear. Inside a tough composite enclosure, a long-throw 5.5" LF driver pairs with a 0.5" high-frequency horn driver to deliver room-filling SPL with ruler-flat response from 60 Hz to 20 kHz. The onboard Class D amplifier keeps the cabinet cool and lightweight at just 4 kg, so installers can mount it on a wall or ceiling without strain. A balanced XLR Mic/Line input, a 3.5 mm TRS aux input, and a dedicated line output give pros everything they need to wire a single zone or chain multiple cabinets in cascade.

What makes this commercial speaker stand out

Class D amplifier topology eliminates heavy power supplies and massive heat sinks, which is why this model weighs only 4 kg despite delivering 100 W of peak power. An integrated output limiter protects the LF and HF transducers from clipping damage during long background-music sessions. Included steel U-brackets accept both wall and ceiling orientations, and the wide-dispersion HF horn keeps coverage even across a busy dining room or retail floor.

Technical parameters that matter for installation

For installers, the headline numbers are the ones that decide whether a cabinet fits the room, the bracket, and the signal chain.

• Amplifier Power: 100 W peak Class D — enough headroom for ambient music and paging without driving into distortion.
• LF Driver: 5.5" / 14 cm — long-throw woofer tuned for tight, articulate low end down to 60 Hz.
• HF Driver: 0.5" / 1.3 cm horn-loaded tweeter — wide-dispersion design for even coverage across the listening area.
• Frequency Range: 60 Hz – 20 kHz (-10 dB) — full-range response suitable for speech and music playback.
• You can connect a microphone, mixer, or stereo playback device directly using the 1x XLR Mic/Line and 1x 3.5 mm TRS Aux inputs.
• Line Output: XLR 3-pin cascade — chains additional cabinets without running back to the mixer.
• Dimensions: 320 x 196 x 196 mm — compact footprint that tucks into corners and ceiling drops.
• Weight: 4 kg — light enough for a single installer to lift onto a wall bracket.

Who should install this instrument

CE500D is the right choice for small business owners, AV installers, and venue operators who need a self-powered surface-mount speaker that drops into a 100-240 V outlet and starts playing. Cafés, boutiques, gyms, lobbies, houses of worship, and exhibition halls benefit most from the wide-dispersion horn and the cascade line output that scales a single zone into a multi-cabinet system. Anyone who wants paging plus background music from a microphone and a phone or media player will find the XLR plus 3.5 mm aux combo covers the common source list without extra adapters.
