Pros & Cons
Pros
X-air is an incredible piece of kit at an insane price-drop price. Features are feature rich, has fantastic effects for the price and a great user interface on all systems. Works great and feels very well built and functionality wise it’s incredible. ... Read More
Xr18 has support for apple phones, android phones, windows pcs, apple macs and linux. Works really well and easily with an ipad etc. Conversely the ipad or android apps work well on the devices but are more limited. Some functions seem easier on my ph... Read More

Lots of networking options. Wireless works well and you can also remote a wi-fi booster. Built in wi-fi is the only negative.
Highlights
Quality
Extremely versatile, very easy to use and very impressed with the quality, the midas pre-amps are crystal clear.
To summarise, it's a totally professional high quality product, i love it.
I also looked closely at the soundcraft ui16 too.
Effects and sound quality are meganumber of aux outs!
Price
For the price, i love this x16.
Amazing piece of kit at an insane price-drop price too.
If your considering to buy this product then don't let the cost put you off because i definitely think you get what you pay for!

Competitiveness
I would recommend a very long cat5 cable as back up on important gigs.
Lots of memory to store presets for different venues and 6 independently mixable aux outputs that can be used for fold back.
But i highly recommend behringer's online videos and other user videos.
The setup was confusing (i used a forum tutorial on behringer's website) but it worked.

But the number of available mixes flexibility easy rerouting portability and control options outweighs this hugely

Only weak point is unpredictable wifi connectivity which can cause increased heart rate when it fails just prior to the start of a gig
