The sound quality is decent, but the equilizer bars are pretty much useless if u work with high volumes (parties, clubs). Also the cut on the crossfader isn't as clear or precise as a vestax or rane...making it difficult for scratch dj's. The crossfader knob is flims, I'd suggest a more solid knob for an upgrade. Other than that, the mixer is very durable, I haven't had any problems with it yet after over a year of use.
