Hi
I need opinion on this mixer.
Vestax PMC-170A
I know cross fader isn't good but i can get new cross fader for 36 EURO i my town.
Is it a good mixer for beginner?
Will this mixer last for 2 years or more?
Can someone tell me good and bad things about this mixer.
And help me choose cartridge.
Stanton 500 al
or
Shure M44 - 7, M44 - G, M35 - S, M35 - X, SC35 - C.
Which one last longer.
(Strong, good sound quality and don't eat vinyl is important to me.)
i say go with the PCV - 275!..
first of all
the PMC - 170A dosen't have the PCV faders which can last up to 2 million fades!!!!
which is amazing
second
the pmc - 170a (nor the pcv 175) have eq in the headphones which really is a big
so i say.. if u already decided on vestax.. just say pcv - 275
also the 170(a) doesn't have a level meter for the CUE track which sux. To make a seemless fade you don't just have to beatmatch, but also match the level of the sound(adjust gain controls). So i'd say save up for 275...
If you can't wait, and want to buy 170(a), then yeah, it will last 2+ years.

Yep, i echo what everyone else says.
get the 275, it's WAY better, and not all the much more money.
