This thread should make an interesting read.
And should provide a clearer insight into Behringer and Music group,
and the direction they are moving them after the acquisition of Midas.

People didn’t exactly hold back with the questions also. 
One useful thing about Thomann which Uli pointed out, that I never took notice of before:
Thomann have the failure rate for each manufacturer on the top right corner of the manufacturer’s page:
http://www.thomann.de/gb/behringer.html
As you can see Behringer clocks in at a rather low 0.73% in the last 3 years.
Obviously one would wonder if that figure is the real figure and not made up.
I could only imagine how high the % would be for the last 15 years!
Pioneer: 0,28%
Allen&Heath: 0, 95 %
“Interessting” - don’t trust any statistics, ya don’t have counterfeit by yaself! 
:ahappy:
To strike a blow for Uli, the technical-designs aren’t bad at all (observe the price), but the huge failure-rate and series-deviation make it unacceptable, at least for me.
Yeah, lets hope what he says about the midas team helping him to output better quality is true.
Does anyone here own a 32X?
It would be interesting to see if the quality of the desk is as good as Uli is saying.
I have it’s predecessor the DDX3216 á la dodgy Power Supply.
