I worked in a music store that had Phonic. My opinion was that they were an overpriced off brand.

I would check out Behringer and Alesis. IMHO

I saw many returns on this products when I was living in Mexico( some of my friends own a music store and tried this brand, nothing but headaches), no parts to fix it in the continent, and is not your most reliable brand.

I think Behringer is a MUCH "better" option.

Currently using a Phonic Powerpod (7xx, earlier version of http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~id~518.asp with a much simpler effects processor). It's OK. I've fixed one input channel whilst also replacing one of the small amplifier control switches which had been damaged as a result of misuse. The channel had been repaired(?) by someone using a flamethrower rather than a soldering iron, I just cleaned up the soldering and bridged a PCB track damaged by excessive heat.

Internally neat enough. The mixer section is limited, but it's not noticable noisy. The amplifiers sound OK if not hugely loud but for our purposes it's fine - we still get asked to turn down! The graphics work fine, may be a bit limited but are certainly better than having no graphics at all.

IMHO the newer small Phonic unpowered mixers look extremely similar to Behringher products to the extent that it would not be a shock to find that one is manufacturing for the other.
