Hope fully it will give me many good shows. When it wears out then I'll replace it.
Sound
Sound is fairly good, low end eq on the channels is a bit boomy freq is too high. Mid para eq is nice, low freq cut off on channels does not seem to do much. On board effects are ok. Only a couple of usable presets. The main graphic eq does not have enough range. Overall O.K. sound for the money.
Features
Mic preamps are nice, sub out works good. I have heard many 500x2 amps sound a lot louder (more head room. Seems to run out of steam quickly.
Ease of Use
Can't really see how it could get much easier. Strait forward,nice lay out.
Quality
Seems on par for the money. Some pots seem a little loose. The faders don't like to stay in place they have a tendency to walk downward after an extended period. Good heavy duty metal chassis.
Value
Good product for the price asking.
The Wow Factor
practical
