I'm sure they're rating it at peak wattage (PMPO), which would amount to about 500w RMS, which is where most modern bass amps are these days. It's certainly enough power but Behringer is using misleading marketing language, imagine that.

Bugera not Behringer.... we must also consider autoignition temperature!!!!

The guy I trust the most on TalkBass mathed it out to around 700-725w @ 4ohm. RMS, but that was an educated guess and not a bench test.
Some sleuths over there pointed out it doesn’t draw enough current from the wall to produce 2000w RMS.
Part of the problem with Behringer’s logic here is that it’s difficult to find a 2000w bass cab (note that they don’t offer one themselves). If they were more honest they’d probably sell more amps because it’d be way easier to buy a cab for an 800/500w @ 4/8ohm amp.
