I am looking to find a way to make my system more fun to use & a bit more interactive. Step up a quality analogue rotary mixer in the preamp position. That way I can DJ if wanted using Technics 1200 & Traktor but still have access to my hi-end sources as well. As it would happen Condesa mixers are built in Adelaide (where I currently live). Yesterday I spent an enjoyable afternoon with Mehdi the maker of Condesa mixers to audition one of his decks & explore options. Man what a lovely guy & superb piece of kit. I am not looking for that last inch of diminishing return SQ anymore. There is a SQ compromise but it is well worth it. Completely sold on this wonderful device - now for the 3-4 month wait for my custom unit to be produced.

Nice mixer/setup! I've been following Condesa for a few years since my DJing days, awesome piece of kit.

Having seen pics of your DJ kit previously, you may want to investigate a world famous Condesa rotary mixers, made in right there in the Adelaide Hills! 😎 🤩 Awesome result! Well done beeman. They are such lovely mixers. 👍 Do you run your valve phono stage through one of the line inputs?

Thanks. Yeah so far valve phono in. Will probably hook up my Technics 1210 as well in final configuration. It will be a month or 2 before it its built this is just an audition setup. Analogue channel summing has a completely different feel to digital. I am loving it

Just so you are crystal clear, I am really very jealous!
I can’t even seem to get a second turntable across the line with the investment committee.
Did you go with a Carmen, or a Lucia?
