[DaSun]

Hey guys...i know theirs alotta smart ppl on this board. Thus i ask this question. i just got some tables. Gemini 2400's i heard thier not bad. and now im lookin for a good mixer. For UK trance,Hardhouse. Mainly Trance. Iv heard that the Vestax PMC 270 is a Great mixer, but its a lil bit more money than i wanna spend. whats the difference between that one and the Vestax PMC 170? I have just enough for a 170, but i will have to wait until my next pay cheque for the 270. Please help me decide. Thanx.

For starting out you'll be fine with the 170, it's not as well built as the 270, the kills aren't the same quality, and there are a few features that the 270 has in advantage of the other.
But at the same time, let's say I had a 170 and wanted to upgrade, I wouldn't choose the 270. The 170 is a great first mixer if you come from nothing. The 270 is a great 2nd mixer if you've been on a Blue Dog or something before.

Hey, look at the Ecler SMAC pro20... it's about the same price as the 170 and is much better!
