Best ever. Soundbar here in Chicago has an old V6, my buddy posted a pic of it the other day next to their new 92 ![]()
I AM ONE OF THOSE “SOME PEOPLE!!!”…awesome mixer…![]()
Here’s a link to my setup…
If I could do it all over again… I’d probably go analogue-rotatory.
It is never too late to go rotary! But regardless…A&H makes crazy good mixers…
If I owned one of those, I wouldn’t mix with it. I would frame that sh-t. Just so beautiful to look at, no need to even hook it up, haha.
Bartmixer on the forums here is one of the few members I’ve seen rock these types. The V6 is on my list of mixers to try along with the ones listed above…![]()
There was also a Chrome Plated Xone 464 or 92 (I think) which I had the pleasure of playing on.
I have a feeling it may have only been a prototype though and was the first A&H I ever encountered. I remember my mind was blown with the filters and 4 band EQ.
The digital-geek side of me is hoping that A&H will release a nice update for the DB series :crossing fingers: before the end of the year. I love the DB4 enough not to go through the hassle of swapping out a full-digital setup for an analogue one. Besides, have you seen the for sale section lately… LOL.
The draw of handcrafted genius, just has a sex appeal to it.
I’ve owned: Xone:32, Xone:42, Xone:62 and a Xone:1D
I’m currently on a Xone DB2 with a Xone:K2.
Fanboy over here ![]()
I’ve currently got an original Mk1 Xone:464 … it had Master “Faders” instead of the Master “Pots” (yes, there are a pair of stereo Masters). There was also a Xone:62 with a Master “Fader” but I don’t have one of these. From what I gather these 2 models were the first that A&H made. The silver pictures of the 464 & 62 above are the Xone2:464 and Xone2:62.
I also have the one of the first 3 Xone:92’s to get to Australia. The Importer kept 1 for trade shows till good stocks arrived, a shop in Sydney got one and so did I (I work in a shop in Melbourne). I still use it each week, an awesome mixer!
I also had a Xone:4D but it was all Silver … sold it before I got stuck into controllers properly, looking back at it now it was probably the best mixer that I have ever had and would suit me perfectly these days … I now use my 92 and a pair of X1’s with Traktor.
I got a DB2 a few months ago and I love it. What do you mean when you say ‘update’? The firmware/OS, or the actual hardware?
I’m guessing the firmware/OS.
Damm dude your like a member of A&H royalty!! Throw a few sweet pics on here!!
That V6 is something else.. Quite sexy for it’s time.
Have a DB4 here but unfortunately it had an accident and the channel A looper knob was knocked off (long story). Slowly over time my DB4 is having issues powering up and such due to what I think is something being grounded that shouldn’t be. DB4 is going back for repair friday.
In the meantime a 92 is on the truck waiting for delivery so I am anxious to get back to 4 band eq’s for a while!!
Nice thread 031999!
/Another xone fanboy
On a somewhat related note, any DB2/Mac owners have problems with audio dropouts? Allen & Heath supposedly released updated BETA drivers at the link below, but it just takes you to the older/buggy drivers. Anyone had any luck?

Also, @ DarioJ, you mentioned the “For Sale” section in relation to Xones. What trend were you noticing?
Alot of DB4’s and DB2’s up for sale lately. ![]()
Not sure why though.
You’d be correct. It’s been 10 months since the last update. I understand that they want to release a good update, so patience is key.
There are a few DB series up for sale (3 in the past month), all at great prices though.
This thread reminds me of the gear p0rn thread, what ever happened to that..
The Setup forum was created. Maybe we should start a new gear slut/lust thread. Wait, that’s a horrible idea.
