| i very much doubt that u would notice any difference in sound quality if ur just gonna be using it in ur house its the same brand so its probably not much difference anyway. |

Ive played at many many free parties with a xone 62. Its a solid piece of kit - built like a tank!
Compared to the 92 (I own one) its pretty much exactly the same in terms of sound quality and general feel. The 92 is basically an upgraded version of the 62 with additional features such as midi, LFO on the filters and generally nicer looking... the sound quality is exactly the same - as with all Allen & Heath mixers! Thats essentially what your paying with every A&H mixer - the sound quality! Every DJ mixer they have on the market has the same high standard of sound quality which is what they are famous for. The only reason the 92 is more expensive is because of the additional features but the sound quality remains the same for the 62 and 32 (not the V6 tho because it has ridiculously expensive valve amps for pristine sound quality)
Unless you want a 92 for the midi capabilities then I definately wouldnt change your 62.. not at all! Especially for the price you guys have to pay over in canada.
Hope this answers your question :)
Also, if your going to buy some speakers then I wouldnt buy studio monitors for mixing on. They just dont sound right even in the bedroom! Get yourself some quality PA speakers like the Mackie SRM 350's or 450's which put some serious muscle into the sound output. Studio monitors sound far too flat when using for mixing (unless you add a meaty sub but thats adding to the expense) |

I own the 62, and trust me, you dont need the 92. Just get yourself some speakers. The ONLY way you can really tell the difference in quality between the 2 mixers is if youre playing at a BIG club, otherwise you wont notice, especially in your own bedroom.
The only thing that I like about the 92, is that it has a rotary option. You wont be doing anything on the 92 that you cant do on the 62 as a beginner. |

There is no way you should choose the 92.... if you wanna choose it cus its the "more superior, expensive mixer" be my guest.. but it will be the worst decision ive seen made in a while...
The sound will be the same through both, and without speakers your not going to be able to dj...
The mackie's over the JBL's, thats why normally there more expensive... get a powered one n you wont have to worry about the amp.. n ull get a bettder/louder speaker for cheaper..
if your in the bedroom, i cant justify spending $4-5000 australian n not having a set of speakers to listen to it on...
get the 62, with the speakers... your equipment is of the highest level...
If you wanna blow some money.. get yourself a Urei mixer, or a allen n heath zone v6 |

any last comments? Uh, yeah, you're wack job. Seriously, you're just starting out, you have an Allen and Heath mixer, and you're thinking about replacing it with one of the best, and most expensive mixers on the planet, just so you can mix only in your headphones!???
Talk about getting into something for all the wrong reasons. :rolleyes: |

Good luck. |
