[basslinejunkie]

rite im sick of my poor excuse of a mixer,been lookin around and i like the look of these two (as i cant afford a djm600 or a+h) but could someone please help me and let me know what the diffrences are between these two,and which is the better? i hear these can take a bit of punishment which is good for me as im pretty hands on when im mixing.also has anyone got one/either of these?? are they worth the cash?? your help would be very appriciated.cheers people

2 of me m8s have pcv275's,VERY nice mixer indeed and yer,can take a bit of a batterin.
personally im gettin a stanton smx401,very much like the pcv275 altho got more features including cue pan,seperate levels on each channel and a penny n giles fader.
and even better,its £50 cheaper ;)

to be honest, there isn't that much difference between the 180 & 275...

275 is slightly better, but 180 is very good for what it is.

well to be honest i am getting rid of mine asap. The channels have gone after 3 months and i look after my gear very well. They have become really loose and stick like **** when i am cutting tunes up. And i can tell you am not ruff with it at all :cry:

ive got the 275 , and really abuse it ! , and had no propbs apart from going through a couple of crossfader ,also some of the surface has worn from near the xfader where my hand sits while scratching ...... but it does get serious punishment an sometimes left on for months at a time :lol:

a mate had a 275...

with the gain right down, when u push the bass knob full, it distorts like crazy... i didnt like it at all. hate the prefade & his faders started to go after 6 months..

he got so pissed he sold it after 8 months swearin never to buy Vestax again...

ive used a 170, 175 & 275 and i have to say i think they suck...
