"Excellent value for money monitoring controller. Read my review for a solution if you experienced noise/artifacts with this prod"

Feature:
Features are great. Effectively 4 stereo inputs than can be mixed/switched. And 4 outputs. 3 of which can be switch on and off and have level controls. The other is fixed level. Im giving 8 because there is room for a third volume control on the front which wuld give independent volume control 3 outputs. Although if you wanted to have your main monitors supplemented by a sub the fact that 2 of the outputs are affected by one control may be useful as in my case. :o)

Quality:
Its plastic and on the light side which means you'll have to srap or blue-tack it down to stop the cables pulling it off the desk. Looks ok though even though its plastic. And for the money I think the physical quality of the product and smoothness of the controlls and switches is above what I would expect. So well done Behringer.

Value:
I think this product is excellent value for money. You are getting a lot of features for very little money compared to what you could spend.

Desirability:
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Looks good on MY desk... Ironically the Behringer logo looks like a warning triange from a distance.

Sound:
I know a lot have slammed the sound quality on this unit, but this is not my experience. I found this units sound quality to be way above what I was expecting considering the price bracket. All gains wound up and nothing! Excellent! I ran several sources through it and it is excellent, and should be really considering its for "Monitoring". Some people have complained about fizzing and noise and other anomolies with this unit. Being an audio design engineer in a past (and somewhat lingering) life, these artifacts that are being heard may be down to connection with PC's or Laptops with poor audio ground earthing combined with switched mode PSU's. Ive experienced this myself with this unit. I say 'this unit' but the same issues can be heard when connecting PC's Laptops to other monitoring gear. A simple GROUND LOOP ISOLATOR will get rid of this. Use an expensive isolator if you are worried about degradation. But then if you are a really good sound engineer you would know that right? Headphone output is nice and loud with plenty of headroom, although its not quite up to the same standard as my John Lindsey Hood Class A Headphone amp. :o) I wouldnt expect it to be! Im giving this 9 because the power supply is only single rail which means decoupling caps in the signal path. A dual rail supply would have eliminated this but then it would have been twice the price.

Ease of Use:
Yeah dead easy to use. All the controlls make sense, didnt have to read the book to get started. 9 because the balanced ins/outs are on 1/4" jacks. And all my cables are XLR. :o)

Support:
Only just got it so we'll see. But I have a friend who says Behringer give good support - probably depends on your local agent/Behringer office.

Overall:
This unit meets my current needs and some future needs. So there would have to be some big changes for me to get something bigger/better. If it was stolen or I broke it outside the warranty I would get the same again I think. This is going to get medium use under my ownership. I'll be disappointed if I dont get 5 years out of it.

Behringer MON800 Customer Review

Feature:
The multiple source inputs switching work great for me although being able route different sources to different outputs would have great too.

Quality:
Sounds good. No hiss or any other noticeable noise.

Value:
For FORTY bucks? Even at twice that it would have a great value.

Desirability:
Not that pretty looking.

Sound:
I was a little unsure of buying this item after reading a bad review of mon800 for it's dirty sound. So the first thing I wanted to check out after bringing it home was the sound quality. I cranked up ALL mon800's controls to MAX and plugged in the headphones to expecting to here some noise, I heard nothing... no hiss crackles or anything like that.

Ease of Use:
Pretty straight forward.

Support:
don't know, haven't tried it yet.

Overall:
Go buy one and try it out. Don't listen to people who are testing this out with noisy input signals.
