No, but I'm really interested to read what you think of the board. Looks like a fantastic feature set and a good price point. Keep us posted.
im waiting for our bands to arrive. we currently have the DL1608, and looking to switch into the QU-16. its ordered, but we have been waiting quite a number of months for it. i will let you know what we think once we have it in our hands!! 
im sure nothing bad, aside from that it doesn't have an iphone app, just the for the ipad...

What is it about the 1608 that you're looking to improve upon with the QU-16? The QU does look pretty awesome, btw.
well to be honest, in theory be that it is a allen & heath console it should sound better, and richer in its overall sound...we are going to A/B the two and really dual it out. the other thing is that i think that our band prefers that we actually have a console vs just relying on the iPad..
the DL1608 hasn't failed, works amazingly well, and the NEW version of their app is a significant update well needed. but i think that the A&H console might have it beat but we shall see how things go at the end of the month when it arrives, i just heard i will have it at the end of the month!... YAY!

just read the spec sheet for the A&H. For starters, memory of input trim and flying faders that locate fader positions for main mix and all aux sends. That by itself is almost worth the price IMO. I also am a Mackie DL1608 fan, and think its a nice product. In terms of tactile functionality, the A&H is so much more user friendly since it has real knobs and faders. This thing drops a few hundred $$$ in price and I won't be able to help myself!! G.A.S.
