Nothing wrong with Bugera amps. They are well built, look good and have a decent range of sounds and for not a lot of money. Too many people jump on the Behringer bashing bandwagon without ever having used any of the gear.

Totally agree!!!
Behringer/Bugera make good stuff. All the sh*tty stuff breaks down i.e: Those low end stomp pedals and the like.
If you spend a little extra, you get good quality equipment. Any of the rack mounted stuff is superb. I have EQ, compressor etc. They have been working fine for the last 8 years, and I'm sure will continue to work.
All this 'whining' about Behringer 'copying' stuff. So what!!!! Every guitar manufacturer and amp maker has been doing this since the 1950s. It's nothing new.....
To the 'gear snobs'... Go spend thousands on a 'name' brand if you want. If you haven't tried the equipment, you have no knowledge to comment with.
I have had Ampeg SVT, Marshall VBA400 fail because they are cheaply made. When they are working, the tone is incredible. But as is the nature of valve stuff, they are fragile. If you gig more than twice a week, you would need an amp tech just to make sure the equipment will continue to function.
I would love to hear how this new amp sounds. It can't be any worse than most 'top end' valve amps I've had: continually breaking down..........
