The DBX patchbay is just fine. The modular cards can be a bit of a pin, but is a handy feature. On the cheap, AP audio also makes a very affordable and still functionla patchbay. My experience has never been good with Hosa, but I have not had any of their patchbays so I can not comment about that specifically. The Behringer seems to be OK as well. I had one a while ago as a temporary quick fix. I measured the noise on it and it seems to add about .5 db of noise, but I doubt that could ever be a real issue. The switches are nice on the Behringer, and it is a sealed design which will help keep the inside free from dust, but will make it hard to clean anything but the jacks themselves, which is what would need cleaning the most often anyhow. The one thing that I did notice is that the jacks on both the Behringers that I had were very loose around the patch cables. Basically, cables will not lock in placew very well and will go in and out VERY easily. For some people this may not be an issue, but it does not take much to accidentally get a cable part way out and shorting it or at the least adding some noise. If you are going to do a lot of patching or getting behind your rack at all I would go with the DBX over the Behringer. If you want to spend a little more, the Neutrik Patchbay seems to be the best of the standard non expensive TRS patchbays I have used.
If you want to do a lot of soldering and want a serious patchbay for a lot less than you will find anywhere else (but still more than the others discussed here) I have one military ADC 104 point patchbay with a fold down front for easy soldering and a normaling board in it. It's heavy as all get out, sturdier than any patchbay you will likely ever see, old, high quality, and time consuming, but I will sell it. It certainly is not for everyone though.
all I saw that he wrote is DBX would have crapped their pants to be listed with Hosa and Behringer
