Skank Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 started of on technics 1210 and a 2 ch numark mixer i think it cost like 700 altogether lol then i went to american audio cdi500's which killed my life pretty much made me not wanna mix anymorenow im on the cdj400's and djm700 and back in the swing of it using serato Quote
ruggs Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 cdj1000's and djm 800 this is my first and still set of decks that i got real cheap Quote
ruggs Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 ...it was pure luck tho i was gonna buy denons then i was djing with my laptop at a party and a drunk guy said i've get dj decks and a mixer at home and i said yer righto and he goes na i do you can have em for 1500...i said what are they and he said some black ones not sure what brand and i got his number and went over the next day and sure enof they were cdj1000's and djm800!

Mind you i got it for free though so if it dies i wont care hahaha. Quote
Skank Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 i think im in love with the 400s purley because of how good they run with serato ive got them pluged strait in to the pc so it sends data back and foward which helps in the little ways but they are pretty good to scratch with i hook my ipods and hard drive straight into it just so handy Quote

Skank Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 yer i think the 2000s are over priced, i read a review that said the laser in the 2000 isnt as good as the one in the 1000 and 400 Quote
eggssell Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 2x stanton st150's and reloop iq2.got the turnies brand new for $650ea and the mixer for $590.wanted techs and watched ebay for almost 6 months i rection, but they were always going for over $600 and these were mk2's with almost 10 years use.got em about 6 months ago, though didnt touch em for 3 months (feb-april), and other then the summer have really only had a crack twice a month. which sucks arse. one day ill get to use em everyday, but ill prob have to quit my day job!
