At $240, it may be a very good buy if you need multiple mics, but the rear panel suggests (Euroblocks) that it is intended for the install market, though can certainly be used mobile.

I have used a similar Rolls mixer for years in a small system capacity (RM-67, RM-69 - see below .. around $140) and it's been rock solid reliable and they're made in the US.

Yeah, the Phoenix connectors and lack of individual channel EQ and headphone cueing make it a deal-breaker. The Rolls MixMate noted above is a better choice (I have a MixMate 2, similar to the mixer shown above but with a 1/4" headphone jack and the ability to send individual channels to the headphone output for cueing).

Well, it looks very similar to the MixMate 3 shown above, and it's now discontinued so you probably won't be able to buy one. But if you insist... here's the link.

There are few 1U Rack mixers with both multiple mic and stereo inputs that have anything but overall tonal control (and I used to have the same MixMate 2 previously). I have a Rane MLM42S which has three band eqs per each of the 4 channels (and a send) but no stereo ins (I have a similar Rolls unit - 6 mic channel in a rack somewhere as well). It's the tradeoff going to a small mixer. The Ashly I picked up has no tone controls .. but much better mic preamps.

Thanks for Sharing! I like it.
 
It has been long out of production (10 years maybe?) but it remains my "go to" mixer, having one at my main mixer, one in my game show system, one in my larger ceremonial system, and one on the shelf as a back-up to any the other three.

PROS: Three mics, six channels, two zones, separate zone eq's, separate mic eq, stereo-mono switching, each channel and/or mic can be zone A or B or BOTH, and a lot more.
CONS: The head phone jack is actually a composite output and cannot be assigned to separate channels to preview tracks making it useless for mechanical beatmixers.
