It's fine for home playing. It doesn't really please, but it doesn't offend either. I don't use the volume higher than 2.5 at home and I doubt anyone else will. The positive thing compared to other small combos is the separate Low Mid and High Mid settings. For the price, it's a good thing - Behringer has always been about delivering more music for less money, and this combo is one of them. If someone is looking for top quality for home playing, they need to dig deeper into their pockets.
