I still can't believe that I could get such a professional sound from this product. The MDX1600 might have a cheap price but it doesn't by any means feel cheap. It has a very solid structure and it does exactly what it says it would do. I am very pleased with this purchase and the service at Amazon.com. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice... *by B***T on September 16, 2015* I wound up actually buying the 2600 because this model was discontinued. I've always liked what behringer builds for us little guys. BUT, if I could change something, I'd lose the detents on the pots because I'm never exactly where I want to be. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This thing is awesome *by D***2 on July 28, 2013* You have to tweak it but it is not difficult to do if you understand audio equipment. It makes a big difference in sound in a conference, auditorium or recording type sound system. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1176319-behringer-autocom-pro-xl-mdx1600-reference-class-2-channel-expander](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1176319-behringer-autocom-pro-xl-mdx1600-reference-class-2-channel-expander) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
