Really? I did not know that! I'm not in market for one - today - but
those prices definitely catch your attention. I'm unclear on exactly
what the Behringer reputation is suppose to be?! At one time, a few
years ago, I thought they were promoting a more exclusive market image -
at least here in the U.S. Now it seems they're shooting for the price
conscious consumer.


It will be interesting to hear what Todd has to say about his new plaything!
