Cool

175 is a very nice sound quality mixer, however paintwork chips easily, channel faders are far from durable and the kill switches make a click noise when flicked. probably the best for its price, if you can save up and get the 275 which is worth the extra funds

Thanks for the info The thing is at the moment i have a KAM - GMX7 A good mixer but a bit old, i want a new one that has more features. I heard that the 275 is very good, but i also want a Pioneer CDJ - 100 and cant afford both.

For that kind of money, I'd go with Numark Matrix 3, Fusion Series. Friend of mine had the Vestax 175 and I had the Numark Matrix 3, and mine outperformed his by quite a bit, put it this way, enough that he went next day and purchased the matrix 3 and sold his Vestax 175 on ebay or something.Also Matrix 3 has quite a bit more features for the money than any other mixer in its class.



Good Luck!!!

I've got a vmx300 and 2 pioneer cdj100's, and I'm very happy with them. (I believe the price range from the vmx300 is between the one from the vestax 175 and 275, but I got mine cheper through connections )

I've got the PCV-275.It is a superb quality mixer, the cuts are excellent and it certainly looks the part!
