Hi all,
Shopping around for a new mixer .... I really wanted to get a DX-500 ... but they are now discontinued ... My only options are a DX-1000 or a VMX 300; They're pretty much the same price (Approx ~$160 USD) !!!!!! (I am ONLY interested in behringer, not numark, not vestax. Only Behringer). I tried getting a DX500 off ebay, But they are hard to find and I do not like the idea of getting a used one.
Features I like about them:
VMX 300:
* Fader Curve Controls
* Beat counters (pretty useless considering I have atomix)
* Nice Design
DX1000
* MANY MANY Channels !!! (Too much though)
* PUNCH BUTTONS !!!
* I'd be the koolest kid on the block having one
* Looks cool with all those faders/controls
* Balanced XLR outputs (which I do not need for home use)
I'm geared more towards the VMX ... I was considering a 200 ... but I don't wanna be like Jim and kick myself in the ass later !!! I'll be willing to sheel out the extra $$$.
Or should I really do my best to get a DX-500 somehow ?!??!
Thanks !!

Yes i think this is the best solution.Dont forget that dx-500 will cover your needs at least for 3 years.

I have ruled out the Dx1000 .... now it has come down to DX500 vs. VMX 300 !!!!!!
BOTH ARE REALLY GOOD MIXERS ..... they just have different features. I need advice here !!!!!!!!!!!

I have a VMX200 and I love it. The sound is incredible, the faders are absolutely amazing - and you can't beat the price.

Thanks for all your help guys ! I LOVE the faders on the behringer period !! Even though the 500 is a Classic that I can't go wrong with ... but I am settling for a VMX-300 !! I looks really cool and have heard of many improvements !
I am getting it for $135 USD Plus shipping through the "Buy it now" option on Ebay

I hope you're getting a NIB product. I don't trust people on Ebay as far as I can throw 'em. For stuff in the future, i'd reccommend going to sites like hollywooddj.com to find superlow prices, then go to other sites that do pricematching. That's how I got my stanton str8-s for a nice price.

eh !! you got your STr8's !!!!!!! awesome !!
I will never buy a used product ... ALthough I 've had success with buying used ones .... I can't go wrongcoughing up a few more $$$ for a NIB product.
I was considering the UMX ... it seems really nice and all .... but behringer just has way more features ! Beatcounters will be a big time saver when I get a CD player ... I am thinking of getting a CDN-25 ... they're no DN-9000's .... but they are pretty decent which get the job done.

I don't care much about the beatcounter .... yeah I'm sure they're off a bit ... but can even shave 10-20 seconds off the beatmatching routine.
I still don't know about a DX-500 or VMX !!!!!!! I have heard good things about both .... a dx is a classic that I can't go wrong with, but a VMX is newer which has better faders.
But I love the punch buttons on the DX500 ?! DAMMIT !! I don't know !

Hi guys
I have check the sites you talk but the problem is that I'm from Europe and the shipment cost are too high can someone tell of a site in Europe that I can shop for a good mixer.
I have a 2 channel mixer with bass,treble controls, fader, killer punch, channel gain, etc, but I want to go higher because for Karaoke this is too limited.
IF THERE IS SOMEONE INTERESTED IN THIS MIXER i WILL SELL IT FOR 125 EUROS "ACOUSTIC CONTROL MODEL DJ-202" IN EXCELLENT CONDITION STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL BOX AND INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL
