Was it worth the wait? I think so.....
Apr 16th 2012Well it was back-ordered for three months, and I was still excited to check it out. Everything works as designed, but I have a few comments. The Main level control is not calibrated at low levels, and there is slight distortion as the volume is adjusted. The Screw adjustments on the top are not lined up very well. Possibly a rush job. But sonically it does as advertised and I give it 4 out of 5. Nothing is this solid on the market and will come in handy for remote work and at the studio.
