How is the Behringer MX8000 compared to the newer 3282 or MX9000. I've heard it is much better, but wanted to get opinions.

Also, has anyone had any experience with Carvin SL 8 bus boards? How are the preamps?

I had one for 5 years. I liked it and made hundreds of great recordings. This is one of Behringer's best boards. I outgrew it and got an A@H large format. I had the Mackie and MX8000 (same models) and the Behringer was faultless. The Mackie was a good board except for the cheesy ribbon cables that would fail. All in all, the MX8000 is a real workhorse that is comparable in sound to the Mackie 8-bus. This board will not hold you back at all.

i got a used mx8000 a few years ago and it was working great for me until a little while ago. now i am getting random clicks and pops on some channels. it's not a huge deal and it doesn't happen all the time, but i can tell that it's starting to go.
to get around the problem, i decided to get another mx8000 and link them together. bad decision on my part. i got it off of ebay and it was garbage. certain buttons wouldn't stay depressed, and sometimes the main LR bus would just cut out for a few seconds at a time.
i got each of them for about $500 w/ the meterbridge so i can't really complain. that's less than one used mackie 24x8.
i haven't ever really used a mackie so i can't compare, but my original board held up for quite some time, especially after buying it used from a dirty punk rock club.
