I was wondering whats the difference between these to mixers, besides the obvious colour and the AUX send etc things for external fx.. any help would be great, im looking into getting one of these.

i have the 175 and its very empressive. i thought it was a nice mixer until people at party's were like "damn that's a bad ass mixer", then i knew it was a nice mixer.

175 also has kill switches, but in the 275 you can hear the EQ change in your headpohones
Something that the 175 doesnt have, and it has more inputs.
Besdies that its the same mixer.
The 275 also has internal components of better quality.

The queue meter is fantastic to have. Many of the higher end mixers have volume meters for each channel. Having one for your queue can help with matching the volume of your incoming tune which is quite important. I would take it over the 175 for that reason alone.

ok.. seems like the 275 is better if you can hear the eq in your head phones.. and the aux out would be good if I ever got a kaoss pad.. I just wish it looked as good as the 175!!!

Well, there is absoloutly no contest with those two colors.
The 175 color simply rox!
I like it very much, I think its the only blue mixer ever made
Ya at first I was kinda mad about that too, but I got used to it, it also depends on what you are used to, that way it could be very good or very bad.
Anyway I produce some quality mixing with it, EQ doesnt bother me, once I get the beats matched I take off my phones and mix using the speakers.
Besides you dont need to replace a mixer just for that, you can get an external monitor and connect it to the effect output and that way you will be able to monitor EQ through your headphones.
Anyway the mixer rocks.

I didn't know that, and it surprises me as the Stanton RM-3 which is basically the same as the 175, DOES have EQ changes in the queue.
