albee. I tried to respond to your most recent pm but my laptop gave me a malicious site popup so I bailed out! I don't know that we should be doing this here anyway. Shouldn't we be corresponding on the by/sell forum site? I'm still interested but I need to check my $$ supply. I'll get back to you. Meantime if you get an offer, don't wait on me. Thanks.

Were it me, I would wait at least a couple of months, as this is supposed to begin shipping from China before the end of March.

There have been some looooong delays on this, it was announced over a year ago. But Uli Behringer posted almost a "personal guarantee" it would begin shipping in 3rd quarter 2015.

But keep in mind this is a hotly anticipated product, so it may not be universally available before May or June.

So, if you aren't in a huge rush, this might well be worth waiting for...

I ordered one of those from Sweetwater, initially they were supposed to be shipped by the end of this quarter, then that was pushed back to the end of this year. The US sales rep said I'd be 3rd quarter of 2015 but didn't have any direct info.

That's too long for me, so I went and ordered the iCon Qcon Pro, $750 and free shipping. Quite frankly at least in the picture it looks better than the Berhringer with the brush aluminium casing.

I looked on eBay for a used Command 8 or a mackie universal control but having a brand new unit with full warranty is worth the relatively small price differential.

I'm with you...if you need it now, you need it now. I really wish Behringer would get their act together on this product...

Just rockin'...what more is there?
