Chris Tondreau said:There is a lot of rhetoric about Behringer stealing others' designs. As I understand it, with respect to mixers in particular, Mackie tried to sue Behringer because they felt that a certain mixer essentially stole their design. (one can't help wondering if the two mixers sounded the same, if Mackie was so convinced that their design was stolen....) An expert was called in, and reported that the Behringer mixer used a different circuitry design altogether, and the case was thrown out. Behringer responded with counter-litigation.
Well if they look the same but have completely different components inside then they must be just as good

That's the whole problem. They make their stuff look like some other well known product then fill it with crap components so people will think they are getting the same product just with lower cost.
