«  Not disappointed! »

For how long have you been using it?
1 month

What thing do you like most/least about it?
Most: the integrated limiter works very well (although this is not the purpose of the device but it's like a gift;)
Fewest: heuuuu, the button to switch on the back of the camera ...

Did you try many other models before getting this one?
I hesitated with the Behringer and I did well to take the Phonic.

What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Very good, very far from the low-end ...

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
Yes, I advise

The filtering quality: very good, the cutoff seems well respected.

The quality of the subsonic filter: very good, I tested it and it cuts very well under 30Hz.

The summing low: There are arguably the left and the right (this is true).
For cons, the signal became slightly amplified is single and still sent out on the low left and low right (not single output).
It is possible to independently adjust the output levels and cutoff frequencies of the output low left and low right.
It's a bit weird but hey, just put the same cutoff frequencies and put the same level for 2-way low.
If you do not understand much, the mail is here for.

Other functions (mute, phase, delay until 4ms) run smoothly and well. The period of 4ms is a luxury, it is often 2ms.
Buttons and knobs are of good quality, not playing games or crunching.

The compensation function for acute constant directivity horns is well made but with normal tweeters is too much (normal is not the purpose of the function). But, it amplifies the slope with a nice tweeter, no peak at 4kHz for example, but +3 dB to +12 dB 3kHz up to 20kHz (for accuracy, see the doc)

The limiter: Haha, well then, hat, terrible, great!!
A little tricky to adjust but once we picked up the trick (at least, we spend some time with his purchase) is the foot completely. And just for that, my grade from 8 to 9!
The limiter is adjustable on each channel: high left, high right, low left, low right. In case of low demand, it is the same as the low left and right still independent, though they have the same summed signal.

I would have been 10 but the power button on the back is not very cool.
Anyway, forget that Behringer is a rank below ...
