I would get another one if something happened to this one. That is unless I get my old tape delay repaired first.

Sound
This is a very kewl delay! I used a tape delay previously as well as digital delays.I decided that I don't care for the digital sound. This being said, the behringer can achieve a very organic, nearly tape texture. If you adjust the input volume on the delay carefully (this works best using a two amp rig)and use the vibrato feature just enough, a tape emulation can be achieved. I personally leave the delay unit on, with the effect output going to a dedicated amplifier.Setting the delay to sound best, may adversly affect the bypassed sound. The direct output however remains unaffected. You can also get a leslie effect if you adjust things accordingly!

Features
It came with the 9volt power supply. The control features are decent. If anything, a way to control the repeat tone might be nice. It is a sturdy 18GA(close anyway) steel enclosure, with typical plastic knobs. Kinda big for a pedal board, but looks cool sitting alone between two twin reverbs behind me!

Ease of Use
Self explanitory, no need for a manual. If you want a dark analogue delay, this fits the bill. Great slapback sound. You can get a decent Stray Cats sound.

Quality
See above. Will last years if not abused.

Value
Best deal going read more for something like this.

Manufacturer Support
No problems, so I don't know.

The Wow Factor
The most appealing thing about this is the sound, especially for the money. It makes me happy to get such cool sounds for next to nothing. Secondly,it has an ugly,big retro look that compliments my old Fender amps.It looks pre-aged if you don't look to closely.
