That mixer is pretty impressive. I auditioned a bunch of brands after having owned a Peavey 12 channel for 18 years (I definitely think I got my money's worth out of it!).
I own a Carvin 16 channel board. They use first-rate components and are rock solid dependable. I believe that I spent about the same for it.
If you possibly can, spend some time running one through its paces to see if it delivers as promised. Carvin gave me 30 days to try theirs out (I was sold the first time I tried it).
Good luck!
