[QUOTE="Jiglo, post: 840006, member: 3953"] I did look into buying one (for a very long time) and thought about picking one up on holiday over there, which is probably the best bet, unless you see the uk seller on ebay who's let 2 go for US prices. I just spent a lot of time looking and reading about them, then decided that it still wasn't my perfect mixer and for the price, it damn well should be, but there's features missing that I really want before spending another penny on a mixer. I'd also agree with Scott that the sound is an acquired taste on rane mixers (at least with the Empath that I've got) so check one out if you can with some reference music and see what you think. Benny D's mixer is about the best i've ever used and it's the one we all use at Picks. It might not have the fancy dicer style controls that the 62 has, but it's practically perfect in every way for me. I've always said the vestax pro scratch mixers are the best I've ever heard and used though. Anyway, there's a place in Manchester with a demo room if you want to see if you're happy with the sound, the cut, the controls and whatnot. Don't be surprised if you're stung for vat and duty on the entire cost of your purchase (including postage) either. I did last time I bought a mixer from there and it's a hefty bill. Mixers incur an extra duty charge, so use the online vat and duty calculator to give you a likely cost of getting one to your door. [/QUOTE]
