Samson headphone amp is pretty good and the volume is consistent between the channels. Not bad for the money at all. But i still wouldnt trust it for monitoring (if you happen to monitor through your headphones). But ive had mine for a year and a half or so and ive been satisfied with it.
ron82 - I started with a Mackie 1604 VLZ Pro and at times i always wondered the same thing. That was until i actually used one. The gain is horrible compared to the mackies. They are very dull sounding preamps, pretty much muffled sounding, and i had a hard time using them with live shows. But, you have what you have and their is a really big price difference between a mackie and a behringer. I own 2 behringers which i use for easy portable mixers for either DJing or some other small things where i need to power a mic.
Joro - Wait till you try a better mixer and you will quickly change your mind on how the behringer sounds. Its not unusable though thats for sure.
I think if theirs anything that is decently usable made by behringer it is their mixers. They work but they definately arnt great. So far i havnt had any inconsistancy problems with the behringer mixers i have bot. Which includes the 2 XLR channel, the 8 XLR Channel, and a 32 Channel with 24 XLRs. I dont own the 32 channel one but i use it, i wish i could have convinced the people who bought it to just get a smaller but nicer mixer, because they dont have much use for the 32 channels when they could have bought a 16 channel for around the same price. But either way, no inconsistancy problems between the channels at least.
It seems like all DJ mixers are crap to me. I would rather have a 8 channel $120 behringer mixer than a $600 dj mixer. I guess the looks have a big roll in it though. The turn tables are probably worth it.
