dutchbastard Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Hey everyone, does anyone know which faders and pot meters are used in the pioneer mixers? Because i can only find the official replacement parts which are about 60,- for a fader to 10 per pot. Anyone knows if you can find the original at mousers or someother place? Thanks, Dutch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nebula Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 I've been down this road. You can find the Pioneer parts a bit cheaper on eBay. But you will not find these parts available through any regular vendor like Mouser, Digikey etc. But the quality of the Pioneer stuff is exceptional.

I just bought 5 faders from Mouser to repair a Pioneer DJM-500: http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/ALPS/RS451121400A/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMta4trl6r8pJ2TxuEmKWC%252bJcFggXwSIrf8%3D I'm not sure which other Pioneer mixers are compatible with this. Re. knobs - original replacements are a ripoff, so if you're not concerned with something that looks exactly the same but is passable with the rest, I suggest these: http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Eagle-Plastic-Devices/450-4765/?qs=Xb8IjHhkxj42qFB9Jif9%252bA%3d%3d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synaptech Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 You can order OEM Pioneer parts from here: https://parts.pioneerelectronics.com/ I grabbed a few replacement parts for a CDJ and they were 75% off what people on eBay were charging. Hope that's useful! :) I should add: you can google for a repair manual to find the particular part number you're looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stand corrected - although I see Mouser lists them as a new product :) Did the faders fit? Are they the same quality as the originals?
