Yep.
Or Vestax 05.
Or if you want somethign cheaper, you can get an 06. it's around 200 $ and you can spend the other 200 $ on records.
Cheers.

my 05 is in pretty good condition. only thing wrong is the headphone cueing knob is missing.

I was thinking of just keeping it and maybe getting pro x fadder for it. Dunno yet.

s4200.....you got your ttm56 for $400??? How did you do that?

Dunno where you live, but craigslist is usually a good bet if you're in one of their areas. There's a ttm56 on there right now for 450 in valencia california.
Andee 9:54 PM - 3 October, 2006
Yup, good looking out guys. I looked on craigslist and found one for $450. I also found a DJM 909 for $800 new. Should I go for the 909 or stick with the ttm 56?

Thanks

djskeetz 10:54 PM - 3 October, 2006
get the 909, shit man for 800, fuck yea. then you dont need some efx500,1000 its all in one.

Yeah Skeetz, but the Pioneer faders aren't "loose". Andee, I checked out the ttm 56, and 54. Picked up the Mackie d2 for 423.00 from www.djsupply.com. I know you all are going to talk trash BUT it is the smoothest fader ever, and it's EQ goes down to ZERO (kills). True the Rane faders are guaranteed for life and the d2 is only 10 years, but if by then after all the technological advances, you STILL have the same mixer, then you might have to re-assess things.
djskeetz 2:30 AM - 4 October, 2006
yeah, actually, i really like the D2 fader, its kinda high, but has a really sollid/buttery click to it....
nautical 6:29 AM - 4 October, 2006
i like my audio innovate aem-100, comes w/ the pro x fader :)

Well it seems like money is not that much of an issue for you since you're really after the 56. Going by the topic posted I can recommend the Numark DXM Pro, faders are CP-Pro and they are as smooth as ever with excellent cut in-this mixer is really sweet on the cut if you ask me. It's definitely worth it to take a look.
