I wouldn't call Wharfedale junk. It's usable, sounds good and reliable
and a lot less expensive than other name brands.


I consider W home stereo grade gear, not suitable for Pro Live Sound, below
behringer


Glad to hear it. I don't suppose you're a musician who uses Wharfe
gear or repairs pro audio gear for a living, but rather just another
consumer or retailer who has an opinion.

As far as the Behringer gear goes I have no experience with it so
other than seeing a lot of negative comments about it from those who
do use or repair it I have no opinion.


Seen and heard of more Behringer gear die prematurely than any other brand that
one ought presumably to be able to take seriously.

Ron (UK) tried 2 of their big amps. Both went U/S just outside warranty.

OTOH, the venue I help out still has 2 of my Studiomaster D series amps working
day in, day out and both are 10+ yrs old. Only maintence needed, blowing out the
heatsinks and replacing a couple of scratchy gain pots. And you can replace those
pots in 15 mins compared to the over one HOUR it takes for a QSC RMX !
