Seemingly like all behringer products..
Look great but dont always work great..
Then again the tube is connected to the circuit it seems from the discussions and just does not glow enough like a real tube so they thought aesthetics are nice..
to me it dosent matter how brightly a tube glows.......as long as i can hear the difference in sound..its fine...
but i do agree that u get what u pay for....if u are payin' "peanuts" for behringer stuff, dun expect them to work wonders too.....
i've got a behringer mic200 n it works fine, does adds the "tubey" sound to ur tone....but obviously cnot compare to the higher-end stuff that u pay 2 or 3 times more......
