RE: What the heck is Behringer doing?

Title: Re: What the heck is Behringer doing?
 
 
    The reason I love this list:  I was just today ready to order a Behringer 20-channel mixer and hesitated at the last minute because a friend recommended I go with Mackie.  And magically this thread pops up.  =)  Well, I don't mind if they ripped the designs off from other companies as long as the equipment does the job, and that's what it looks like you guys are saying.  So I think I'll go with the Behringer.  =)

I've been seeing more and more Behringer equipment available. Kee-rist!
Microphones, numerous effects/other boxes, amplifiers, mixers, speakers,
compressors, etc., etc. What's the story with this company?

the story I have been told is that they "knock-off" the designs of other companies
to produce their products -- so all their designs are "inspired" by similar products
from the engineers of other companies like, say, Mackie.

Both Mackie and Aphex have successfully sued Behringer over this.
