[QUOTE="Steve Cloud, post: 51383, member: 1664"] Re: Uli Behringer of The Music Group Q&A Hi Uli, I appreciate you coming to this forum to answer some questions. In fact, I joined this forum to get into this discussion with you. I have owned several pieces of your gear over the past few years. V-Amp 2, guitar stomp boxes, a couple of mixers, rack-mount effects, and currently have a couple of power amps and a digital eq/crossover. Quality has been hit and miss with all of them.
