I might go to a DJ store to check out various mixers but i wouldn't buy one there. You'll get way better deals online, especially around christmas time i'd guess.

A few people go on about the Numark DXM 06 being good etc. That might be a good place to start.

But it all depends on how serious you are and what budget you have.
The more you pay the better you get, that's a very rough rule though.

Don't get anything cheap anyway as it'll just break eventually and you'll just have to spend more money replacing it

I've heard too many stories about numarks faders dying in a very short time. Or something dies on it very quick.

keep dust away from it and it wil be fine, people just dont know how to take care of there gear.

Well everyone slates gemini, and ive had my gemini ps 650i mixer from new for 4 years now and its still got the original faders, sounds amazing from the balanced outputs after all this time aswell. Once i get the pioneer efx 500 in the new year ill eventually upgrade to a mixer with send and returns. Just purchase wisely and look after your equipment and enjoy it all the same.

someone mentioned the pioneer cdj-200 as low budget...while i agree that obviously they are low priced, they low not "low budget" gear at all. i feel absolutely no need to upgrade from my 200's. they have every feature any beginner could ever want, and probably a lot more. i've had mine for 6 months and i'm still figuring great features out.

I'd rather just get equipment I know I can beat the hell out of and blow smoke into without having to worry about it dying on me. I'm serious.

i cant complain about numark at all. I had one a dxm 01 mixer a few years back and it wokred great. I currnently am spinning on Numark tt-500 and damn am i impressed. they have very high torque and a sturdy as hell.. I tripped over a stair carring one in my apt and it took the fall like a pro.. I have heard the tt-200's suck , but like one person said i dont own the 200's so i cant judge..but i will say theirs nothing wrong with numark

my dxm06 died in a year.

both my faders are gone, and my cross fader leaks.



and im too poor to buy something else
