Best value:
Excellent
I use this controller for 3 years, and I confess that I now find it difficult to do without. It's a really well thought out camera, super easy to use and quickly forgotten.
It allows both ease of routing and an obvious non-negligible gain in sound quality, getting out of his sound card to 0dB reduces the calculations, but without falling into the mathematical handjob, my ears have noticed a gain definition of sound, most evident in the lower spectrum, which appeared to me more clearly defined from the first listen. Let no one say that it is psychological, I triturated this rack in any formal sense and I'm on it, we gain in potato and definition. If this observation may differ depending on the quality of the speakers, he is unstoppable at cons preamps headphone, holding a good, well above those that can be found on maps Motu example.
Another very important asset, nothing is colored. The internal electronics are very well managed, with quality components and especially isolation between circuits that can not be faulted. It's actually listening monitors and nothing else ... I think including a Big Knob, which had seriously disrupted when I had tried on BM6A (pregnant that I know on the fingertips), the medium seemed to suffer a je ne sais quoi of draft, very weird ... But this is not the same price.
Final advantage: the internal converter, high charges, it is impossible to differentiate between it and the "hand out" an EMR is a very good job with the ability to plug 2 interfaces, & toslink spdif, which adds to the versatility of the device.
In short, Presonus, mark that I must confess I never made a big impression, did not fucking its customers with this very good rack, which appears now to 500 euros, excellent value price. I branch 2 or 3 pairs of plays, leaving my sound card, my CD player broadcast, two synths, my portable recorder, my PC output "multimedia", and there is still room! To mix it's happiness, one can compare his work with one or two sources of reference, while juggling her monitors, a real added value not to be surprised on other plays. There is very little equivalent model in terms of connectivity, but there are better in terms of sound quality, but it will pay 3-5 times more expensive, and it is justified only if the presence of pregnant very upscale. In my opinion, the best in its class.

Ultra connectors provided, and quite solid.
headphone section ultra-complete.
converters troubleshoot and correct very well.

real value added for the broadcast quality and finish mixing.
electronics, which stains only well thought nothing.
Remote Powering, farewell parasites!

The XLR sockets are always more reassuring, but the price and size would have taken a hit.
a section-meter peak Led nice but very anecdotal in terms of accuracy, better go RTW.
Pots of strong, but that can become clogged with years to provide internal cleansing swab ...
Knob the main level would have earned to be larger, it is far from SPL at this point of view.
