Best monitor controller under $1k?

Is there anything wrong with the TC Electronic Level Pilot? I know it's only 1 set of monitors that you can control with it, but it's under $100 and is literally just a knob.
 
Andy sold his Dangerous D-Box. That should mean something.

A lot of people use the Central Station... Aaron Smith, James Murphy, I've seen it in Sneap's rack before. I use it with no issues.
