Is a Technics SH-MZ1200 a good buy? Posted on: 14.06.2012 by Rosario Whitington Hello my fellow dj's.I'm considering buying a new (never used) Technics SH-MZ1200 for 591 USD. I'm don't do jobs (yet), so i believe it's great for my purpose and will fulfill my needs. Is it a good buy or are there better mixers at that price? Best regards, | |

| Rosario Whitington 15.06.2012 | Oh and I've also looked at the DDM4000 but it just got a confusing layout, and i would like to do some scratching with the mixer too, and it doesn't seem like the DDM4000 can do that... |
| Rosario Whitington 15.06.2012 | It doesn't need to be midi capable, I just bought Traktor Scratch Pro 2, so that's not really something I'm looking for in a mixer I've got an offer, on a Vestax PMC-280 for 150 Euro. It seems like a good price, but after reading the review on DJ-WORX, I feel like I should throw that offer away as quick as possible! Anyone got experience with the mixer? I've also got an offer on a Allen & Heath Xone: 42, BUT it's in a whole other price range. Lastly I've been looking at the Denon dn-x1500, because it isn't to expensive on Ebay Should I go for DN-X1500 or go for the DN-X1100 instead? Thanks for the help so far guys! |

| Rosario Whitington 14.06.2012 | I live in Europe, so it's a bit more expensive here:-( But I will keep an eye open for a used Xone: 92 or Vestax PMC-280 :-) Thanks for the help! |
| Romelia Stankard 14.06.2012 | You can find used Xone: 92s for around $700 on ebay. Other than that look at various vestax 4 channel mixers. |
| Rosario Whitington 14.06.2012 | Thanks for your reply Well actually I just saw it at the lokal store and thought it might be an option, even though there aren't any reviews of it. Got any suggestions for a more proven 4 channel mixer in that price range? And yes I've seen the sl-dz1200s, they look horrible:-) |
| Romelia Stankard 14.06.2012 | No. I mean I have no first hand experience with that mixer but it doesn't sound like a great deal. http://www.musicgoround.com/detail.aspx?id=1177935 looks like one for $280 there and on ebay looking at completed listings none are selling Not sure why you want one, it's long discontinued and there are plenty of more proven 4 channel mixers in that price range. Technics wasn't exactly known for making great digital products (look at the sl-dz1200s that went with this). |
