That a boy Cryo

Thanks for the link beats and beeps. My camera is kinda crappy, but pretty decent for only $150! Anywayz... heres my setup:

Again, I have the following:

2 Technics SL1200-M3D's
2 Pioneer CDJ-100S's
1 Alesis Airfx
1 Alesis Airsynth
1 Vestax PCV-275 Mixer
1 Sony MDR-V700 Headphones
1 Chameleon Rack Light (for my mixer)
2 pre-mounted Stanton 890SA cartridges


Turntables, racklight, headphones, mixer, E-Razor's "Mantra"



One of my CD decks, Alesis Airsynth, turntable



Another turntable, the other CD deck, Alesis Airfx


If you guys are interested I could also take a couple pictures of the lights in my room with the fog machine on. Looks pretty wicked!

You might want to take off that cartridge weight. Too much weight on cartridges can be bad for the records and stylus. The 890sa should track well if it's properly set up.

Oh yeah, like your setup.

I know a distributor for Stanton in NYC, bought them from him. Got them premounted in the little metal box, so they should be set up right.

The main reason why I got the 890SA's is because they put very little wear on vinyl. Some used tracks I have purchased will skip without the weights on, so I just keep them on. I havent noticed lessening of sound quality on any of my records (yet at least).

Thanks for the advice though, if my records start getting messed up I will know why

I love it! The very reasonable price, large amount of features (kill swithces, effects send/receive, etc.), and layout of the features is what drew me to it. The sound quality on it is excellent and it allows you to expand in the future.

When I first bought all my equipment I got a really crappy mixer than only allowed 2 turntables to be connected to it. I decided to return that and I picked out the PCV-275. I thought I might want to get CD decks in the future so this way I would be able to expand.

Some people say the knobs are too close together but I have never had a problem with that matter. If you have a Guitar Center close to your house go up there and tell them you want to try it out. They will hook up a pair of cd decks or turntables to it for you to try it out with. Guitar Center also has awesome prices on gear!

Hope this helps!

How do you like that alesis synth? Do you find it very usefull? That whole dectecting the movement of your hand thing really intrigues me. Great setup btw.

The only use I get out of my Airsynth is when friends come over drunk and stoned and mess around with it. I never actually use it during a set.

The Airfx unit though is amazing. It produces very nice effects and it is fairly cheap ($150 I believe). Very fun piece of equipment.

ya thats a good review, i just wanted to hear your opinion since i've seen other reviews and such. and yea guitar center is good cause they will pricematch i got my mk5 for 418$

Damn, that's a great price...where did you find those prices?

Nice setup Dragon. Even better vinyl on the deck.

well it was at electronic-expo.com but now it isnt up there, all i did was get a print out and showed it to them and they pricematched. i might have a copy and i can scan it and send it to you if you need it. heh
