avatar vs. behringer

I haven't heard an Avatar but it seems to have positive reviews...then again people are saying Behringer is decent, here's my problem with Behringer:

I work in the warehouse of a large/nation-wide music company and they sell Behringer (why? because it is cheap and it sells, because it is low priced...and of course they care about $ not quality, if a company is going to bring them profit) In the warehouse I've seen all kinds of behringer products comeback and yes i agree with user: Triclops up there that the aluminum cones are junk (they sound very metallic and no not as in heavy metal for all you fellow metalheads)
Behringer also makes Dj mixers and guitar products and they are the bottom of the barrel...(all they do is make cheap affordable music products that will break down or sound like junk eventually, if not from the get go) if your going to spend decent money I say go with the Avatar after you've tried one, if not go with what you have access to try. Also, I bet your favorite bassist doesn't use Behringer.

Sorry for the long post-but it bothers me when I see trash compared to (what everyone seems to respect as a quality product<Avatar>.

It is Saturday night in my place in the world right now, time to go meet some chicks, happy hunting to all of you to.
