Spirit Folio SX (opinions?)

I love spirit stuff. I think the pres on a spirit even the folio, will blow a mackie out of the water any time of day! I work at a dealer for spirit, and we used to work with mackie, but they were too expensive and not as good as the spirits, while their prices have come down in recent years, we they still are not at the level of the spirit. I think that picking up a spirit board is one of the best things you can do!

I grabbed it cause when I went on E-bay I saw them selling for $450 and up. So if I don't like it I can sure sell it and even make a profit. I went to guitar center the guy I talked to there said it was a good board but he felt Mackie was better. When I asked why he said you just can't get the sound out of a Spirit that you can out of a Mackie and that a Mackie was much "quieter". Anyway thanks for the info . I'll give you my opinion once I start using it.
