Behringer might have one or two products that are good and kind of an industry
standard. Other then that you get what you pay for. And not only their price
is cheap... Most of their products are just copies of good devices which they
'improved' by crippling usage and audio properties.

I once saw an ebay auction for a cutting wheel (working) with an attached
Behringer component (lights still working) :-)

I am very satiesfied with my Studio Projects Condensor Pair (which Behringer
copied). But after using a pair of large AKGs, I dream about them.

Have fun,

Arnold
