Dj Mixers

[Juan V]

OK I'VE BEEN MIXING SINCE I WAS 12 OVER 7YEARS NOW AND I'VE GONE THRE AT LEAST 10 MIXERS SOME OF THE BEST I'VE HAD HAVE TO BE
PIONEERS LINE OF DJ MIXERS I'VE HAD THE 300 AND THE 500 I ALSO HAD AT LEASE 3 DIFFRENT GEMINI SCRATCH MIXERS AND GEMINI 19" RACK MIXERS BUT NOW I WANNA TRY SOMETHANG NEW I WANNA GET 1 OF TWO MIXER OUT THERE ON THE MARKET IM A SMALL MIXER TYPE OF DJS FU(K THE BIG ONES AND IM STUCK BETWEEN TWO MIXERS AND I NEED SOME HELP WITH PICKING ONE
STANTON RM 3-S(MADE WITH THE STANTON NAME BUT BY VESTAX SINCE VESTAX BOUGHT OUT THE STANTON COMPANY LIKE LAST YEAR OR SO)
-OR-
NUMARK EM-260(THE ONE WITH THE KORG CROSS PAD)

OK HERES HOW I FEEL ABOUT THEM BOTH
STANTON
PRO:
SOUNDS VERY VERY VERY TOP SOUND ON THIS
GOOD EQ'S
GOOD FADER LIFE
NICE SIZE

CONS:
FADER WAY TO LOOSE THAT VESTAX STYLE
NOT ENUF FEATURES

NUMARK:
PROS:
KOOL COLOR
IT HAS OVER 60 EFFECTS WITH THE KORG CROSS MADE
VERY SMOOTH FADER ONLY FADER I THINK IS EQUAL TO THE PIONEER FADERS
EVEN BETTER SIZE
GREAT SOUND NOT AS GOOD AS STANTON

CONS:
PRICE IS OVER 300 I COULD GET IT ON THE HOOKUP FOR 200
NOT ENUF INPUTS AND OUTPUTS UNLIKE THE STANTON HAS MANY MANY IMPUTS AND OUTPUTS FOR BEIN A COMPACT MIXER
FADER LIKE AINT AS LONG AS STANTON..

SO WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?

Doe you do alot of Battle mixxing or hip hop?
If you do does the stanton(vestax) have "hamster switches"?
And if no hip hop...
Do the mixers have the full bottom out eq's or kill Switches?

go with the stantons, I Only buy Vestax or Rane mixers, I'm a battle DJ, but i've tried the numarks and the stantons, since the stantons are similar to the Vestax, I'd go with them, guaranteed to last

I use a Vestax PMC-05 at home. I spin mainly dance/house music & it works really well for me.
