Jaz Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 ill try keep it short...sick of my djm400, want a djm800 so ill feel at home if i get a club gig + then i wanna buy some cheapish Vinyl Tables and a Serato or Traktor set up n run DVS probly exclusively threw the vinyls hence why ill need 4 channels (in the future)Should i try find a used 2xCDJ1000 + DJM800 and obviously sell my 2xCDJ400 + DJM400 OR Or just try find a a DJM800 and keep the CDJ400's and sell the DJM400....Why i cant decide:•would get like $1600 for the 400 set up, cost about $3000 for the 1000+800 set up•or get like $400-$500 for the DJM400 n pay like $1200-$1300 for the DJM800•1000's dont have much more features then the 400's + ive always liked the hot cue feature on the 1000•400's are midi compatible so i could use them as DVS as well if i wanted to•am i really gonna need the 1000's to feel at home in the club, so long as i know my way well around the mixer...•wont really need the better vinyl representation that the 1000's have over the 400's if i get the vinyl tables Quote
eggssell Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 dont kow too much because i know buckleys on cdj's (having only had a few hours on reloop rmp1's), but i would say that you would get more selling your current kit as a set. i dont think there is much demand for just the DJM400. again this is based on ebay browsing alone. but you'll prob get a buyer who would want a whole setup.as to what you get after that ???

pulsebeat Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 sell your mixer and buy the djm 800honestly the cdj 400s are a step down from the 900s1000 are great but wait for quite a few years for the price to dropits to expencive for what they should be worth Quote
Jaz Posted March 1, 2011 Author Posted March 1, 2011 yeh im thinking just get the 800 n sell the 400have done an ebay search on the djm400 and there are heaps of vinyl set ups for sale with it so it must be a popular vinyl mixer for some reason...at the moment im looking at it this way, it will cost me an extra $1400 (with the sale of my current gear) for the the 1000's and 800 hopefully in a roadcase (thats if i can get that at $3000) or like and extra $700 for just the 800 (if i get like $400-$500 for my djm400)cheers lads Quote
crundyy Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 let me think about it for a bit i might sell ya my technicsssssssss Quote
Jaz Posted March 1, 2011 Author Posted March 1, 2011 let me think about it for a bit i might give ya my technicsssssssssthanks man! hahaha nah i may buy them gotta do more research on vinyl table's yet Quote
Skank Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 bro get a djm 700 there boss and full of features Quote
eggssell Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 djaz prob popular in vinyl setups because only rarely will you have more than two turnies. in the scenarios you raise above you say itll cost you an extra 1400 if you sell whole kit and get 1000's and the djm 800OR extra 700 if you sell just the mixer amd buy a djm800. doesnt that mean in the first scenario youre getting two 1000's for 700 bucks? surely that sounds smarter if yer maths are right? and of course assuming you have 1400 bucks Quote
Jaz Posted March 1, 2011 Author Posted March 1, 2011 yeh but its rare that im seeing such a cheap deal so i would probly have to wait a bit or find separate decks for that price or something...figures arent exact, just estimating/the prices im hoping for Quote
lloydc Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 if you're talking about getting traktor, then forget the djm800 and buy this https://www.storedj.com.au/products/DEN-DNX1600and keep the cdj400s... theres no advantage in the 1000s over the 400s if you;re going to be using a DVS system Quote
ill_spector Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 keep 400's wait til djm 900 comes out, wait a lil....buy djm800 for just above 1g? Quote

andyman Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 keep 400's wait til djm 900 comes out, wait a lil....buy djm800 for just above 1g?this. Quote
lloydc Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 when does the 900 come out?april some time apparently, possibly may Quote
Jaz Posted March 2, 2011 Author Posted March 2, 2011 shit, thats a bit away...dunno if i can wait lol Quote
Jaz Posted March 2, 2011 Author Posted March 2, 2011 just found this threw google on the 900nexusObviously, this is not your average DJ “box” so its price is extraordinary too setting you back for 2400 bucks with a release date on March. Quote

SourceRaver Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Buy the DJM800. Moving from CDJ400s at home to CDJ1000/900/2000 will be very easy for you. Quote
Jaz Posted March 2, 2011 Author Posted March 2, 2011 well it looks like the 800 has taken the cake, it will be the cheaper option anyway, n less hasslewill check out that denon as well Quote
Jaz Posted March 6, 2011 Author Posted March 6, 2011 ok just found a DJM800 in Perth for $1200, Aparently in perfect condish,still has box n manuals n shit, offered him $1100 and ill pay tomorrow, he accepted...good deal? will only cost about $35 postage to here, Quote
