You get a lot for your money, it sounds great (since its passive design) and has all the features you need in the studio. It would've got a top grade if the volume knob wouldn't have started to make noise while turning it after a couple of months, but on the other hand, most potentiometers do if they're not shitty expensive. I would've loved a stepped volume even if that would've upped the price a €100 or so.
