Pros
The output was noted by users to be "pristine" and clear with lots of headroom. The preamps and amplifier get a lot of praise for being able to drive speakers to a satisfying volume. Compared to bringing a mixer and separate amplifier, the RPM1870 also gets good comments about its weight.
Cons
The fan can get loud. A small number of users experienced USB not functioning properly.
Overall
If you want a portable console-style powered mixer with enough inputs for a full band or choir section, the RPM1870 is a good choice.
