$500 isn't that much
You pay for quality
I've gone through a few mixers, and found that numark are e.
You will only end up wanting something better. I suggest you save now and go for the real deal.
I own a DJM-600 :) |

| Dont skimp on buying a new mixer, if you get a cheap one you will onyl want to upgrade again in a years time. I have a DJM-600 and i wouldnt change it for the world (well apart from a nice Rane rotary ;) ) If you get an expensive mixer from a decent company (like pioneer or alen & heath) you can also use it or when you throw a party some where as the sound quality is brilliant and you wont have to rely on the amps to make your music sound good :) |

If you are going for a vestax, let me urge you not to get the 175!
You might of heard my bitching in earlier threads about it. So sorry i bought it! |

This baby kills the DJM-600...you see the master Led's that is glowing liquid mercury...sick filters...tube preamp...pro dsp effect...and no plastic pieces all chrome industrial metal. |

| Vestax is the way to go on low budget. Either PCV-175 or PCV-275. But if You have money to burn then go for the only true club mixer out there :) 'Allen&Heath XONE:62' ;) |

I have heard bad things about the stanton RMS3.
I say get a vestax PCV275 instead, basically the same features, it will last longer, and sound better.

Whichever mixer you get, I suggest that you look for key features and then make a discission. I would suggest that you get at least a three channel mixer (unless you are absolutely sure that you will never use the third channel for another deck (TT or CD). I would definitely make sure that each channel had its own volume LEDs and that you can adjust between the cue and master volume in your headphones. Look for a frequency range of at least 20Hz-20,000Hz and and any other features that you would like.
Some examples are replacable crossfaders, crossfader curve selector, effects, BPM counter, kill switches, record out etc.
I think that you'll find comparing mixers much easier if you look at the features that they come with instead of people saying "this sucks" or "this is the ultimate mixer!" etc. Most people here have only a limited experience with maybe two to three mixers at the most. Granted, some have more, but what are the chances that they have used and can compare the mixers that YOU are interested in? Start a comparison sheet for the different mixers in your price range. Go to the webpages of each company and see what is in your price range. Then start eliminating from there.
Here is a list of most major Mixer manufacturers:
allen heath
American DJ
berhringer
gemini
numark
Pioneer
Rane
stanton
vestax
I'm sure there are others, but these are all of the major ones that I could think of, with links to their websites too! Enjoy! |

| i've looked at mixers and i'm not sure if not havig certain features will affect anything or not since i'm just starting...but i'm looking at the pioneer djm-500 and 600. Are these good?? |

Yeah man,
I'm currently saving up for the DJM-500 myself. If i had the extra money i would go for the 600, but the 500 has got what i need. =) |
