Feature:
The built in crossover is nice feature, but it cannot be bridged which can be a drawback for some applicaitons.

Quality:
The connectors in back feel great when connecting various cable types. the front knobs and casing feel a little cheap & pasticy

You get so much power & QSC reliability for a very good price. You can also get a 6 year warranty if you register the amp online.

Desirability:
n/a, its an amp

Sound:
The sound is very high quality and very musical.

Ease of Use:
Turn it on and go!

Support:
n/a

Overall:
I expect to be performing with this amp in my PA for many years to come.

Feature:
Really, it's got everything I need, including a very cool built-in crossover for powering a sub and a top on their own channels. The GuardRail protection system is a no-brainer.

Quality:
It's a QSC. 6 year warranty free online. What else is there to say.

Value:
Yes. I think it's the best deal in amplifiers out there. I'm buying more.

Sound:
In typical QSC fashion, a great sounding amp. Way more amp for the money than I was expecting.

Ease of Use:
Lots of inputs and outputs. Thoughtfully done.

Support:
In all my years of owning QSC products (I'm old) I've only had to contact their tech support once and I was impressed that I got a live body on the phone right away.

Overall:
Really happy with it.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Feature:
The QSC GX500 has everything I need, and nothing I don't. Simple, easy to use, but at the same time cool features like the Guardrail system and optional sub-crossover. Nice manual with no-nonsense, pictorial descriptions of what you can and cannot (or should not) do with the amplifier. QSC keeps it simple with minimal flash, an ALL-METAL case, and clearly-labeled ins and outs. NOTES: you can use SPEAKon and/or 1/4" speaker outputs--nice to have options!=

Value:
All in all, the best amp for your money, hands down. Amazing sound, ease of use, and super long warranty.

Desirability:
Silver and black. Nice.

Sound:
Boomy, clean, full range, amazing sound. Awesome!

Ease of Use:
Like I said, couldn't be simpler for the features. I was shocked at how fast I had it working.

Support:
FREE 6 YEAR WARRANTY. Let me repeat that: this product, if you register it online, comes with a 6 YEAR WARRANTY. You're simply not going to beat that. SO nice to see a company stand behind its product. Solid.

Overall:
Great value, 6 year warranty, great sound, like I said, you can't go wrong. QSC is a real company, all substance and no gimmicks. Go for it!
