What great build quality--feels very sturdy and totally non-flimsy. All controls are tight and feel great; many clever features, sound quality seems very good, eq works well. Lots of flexibility f... read more [+]or very little money. Great compact size too. I used this as a preamp for 4 mics in my studio that hang down from the ceiling right around over musicians' heads, to be able to clearly hear their comments. OK--I can hear everybody-- Yes, I CAN turn the mics off if I don't like the comments! The single master slider is very cool too. Would make a great live mixer for a small ensemble using powered speakers. close [-]

I don't think it's possible for Sweetwater NOT to do a good job. You simply never fail your customers. You have very low prices, amazing products, and even more amazing service. What's even more amazing is that you're very consistent on all three!
