PMC-27

[DJAlchemy]

How many of you techies have this mixer? I really need to buy a new one and this looks like the best so far in my price range. My Biggest concern about this mixer is its duribility. I don't want a mixer thats gonna fall apart in a few years. I figure since techno DJ's abuse mixers more then anyone else you'd be able to tell me how they hold up. I wish the thing had ballanced XLR mains on it.

Peace & love. D

Yo, Dude

Berhinger makes a reasonably priced, decent mixer with balanced XLR outputs. You should check it out. Or just submit an go XLR to RCA (look at spending about $30 - $40 per cable).

Peace,

Derek

Those are the cables I'm using now, they've increased the sound quality ten-fold.

Peace & love. D

Supposedly new revised PMC line has shitty components, so I'd be careful (or look elsewhere).

there should be a "the" somewhere in the above sentence

as some of you know.....

i've had no luck with the pmc-270, its been back and forth to Vestax 3 times....the last time was my last straw dealing with them...the channel faders were fuct.The sound kept cutting out on one side of em...

naturally i spoke my mind and pretty much snapped...and got myself a pmc-275.Thing was i wanted this model (270 and 275) are basically the exact cept for the fader...and i love this thing!

i dunno, i know 3 people that have the 270 and there's are fine...so i figure i got a dud.

go with the pcv-275 dude.....nothing but good things on this thing, im sure Mr. Smalls can vouch with me! and yeah just do what derek says with the cables...

good luck man..

doug.

The PMC-27 is an older model Vestax, it's more expensive than the 270 or 275. They use same component's in it as the PMC-50 or 55, which is their top of the line mixer. It has the exact same function's as the 270-275, just with better quality parts in it.

Apparently it wasn't selling all that well, that's why they came out with the 270.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,

G

I got myself a PCV-275 for x-mas. It's quite lovely indeed.
