Yes, earlier Behringer designs tended to sound terrible. I use the MX2642A in silver livery, though, and this one sounds very good. Not as good as a Mackie 1604VLZ but still very well usable. The earlier models (which came in dark-blue or grey livery) sounded terrible (I went through several of them). I guess Behringer is still the best "bang for the buck" ratio, unfortunately, especially when your budget is tight. Stephen (who´s going to switch from Behringer to Mackie in his live rig soon). ____________________________________________________________________ "Ambition makes you look pretty ugly, kicking squealing Gucci little piggy."
