    Are These Any GigaMix Things Any Good?

    Seems like these ought to be worth $200 delivered, but I thought I'd ask. Maybe OK for a little gig sometime or for a backup, I dunno. Sometimes Alesis stuff gets ragged on pretty bad, sometimes not.

    What's the skinny?

    Looks like a smokin' deal to me!

    Alesis makes decent drum machines, but low end PA gear. Pretty much on the same level as Nady, Behringer and Samson.

    You get what you pay for. Sometimes on closeout you get a bit more.

    I'm always looking for more...I usually get it, too. :) Alesis makes some fairly decent studio monitors; the M1 MkII Actives are highly regarded for the price. I have a pair in my studio that I got a long deal on.

    On the other hand, I was just thinking about this GigaMix thing and was really struggling to find a legitimate use for it. It's just too little of everything to be practical, I think, but I'm not a real sound reinforcement maven.

    Still dithering one this one.

    I'd take a hard look at a Beringher (sp?) too.
