The x-fader on my current mixer died the other day I think I scratched it to death so I need a new one...
It has to have:
at least 3 channels
crossfader curve control (and preferably a reverse/hamster switch)
and split cue headphone (or whatever its called, I want to be able to listen to both channels in the headphones at the same time)
Any suggestions? I was thinking that a Vestax looked nice and shiny and I've heard that they make good crossfaders but I'm welcome to any suggestions
ps. I cant afford a DJM500/600 before any1 says that

Ecler Nuo3 The only 3 channel scratch mixer around I believe. Fantastic mixer, I stroke mine lovingly daily.

Vestax are probably the best budget mixers and can handle some serious scratch abuse. The one Jax posted is the one I was going to recommend. I used one of those on a course at gateshead college and nearly ended up buying one as a consequence.

It's been amazing so far.

Cheers for the replies every1 
I was looking at the Vetax PCV275 but it doesn't have curve control so looks like it'll have to be something else as thats something I definatley want
I'll check out the Ecler & Numark ones and see which is best... ideally i want to spend less than £300 tho so I don't know if my wallet could stretch as far as the Ecler
