chizz101 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Hey guys and girls out there,I have recently sold my Stanton STR8.150s to a mate of mine and I was wondering what to buy to replace them from the CDJ range (just because it's industry standard). I have about $1200 at the moment but I'm willing to up that to $1500 if necessary. I'm currently using Serato and I am planning to keep using it. I was looking for 1000s or even 900s but it's not a definite.Would appreciate some feedback,Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 i wouldnt go with 1000's man people sell them for to much when they are so old, and 900's are out of your price range...look at 800's and 850's because it sounds like u wanta full size platter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobberz Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 It is not a must that you have to get Industry Standard, and honestly the term is so over used. Pioneer range is more of a choice rather than a standard. If you bought any CDJ's from 350s up to 850s you will feel confident making the transition to either 900s,1000s or 2000s.

SolDios Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I chose 800's over 400's mainly because of the size of the jog wheel, also this forces me to start a cd collection, which I will need if I encounter any clubs with cdj 1000's or other cd only models.

anditz Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 i was thinking the same thing before i bought my 400s. i found the jog wheel difference negligible. i dj clubs and don't have a cd collection, i burn my cds based on what room/set time im playing on the night, i'll take around 40 songs on the night, and just pick from those. soon enough most clubs will be running 900s or 2000s so a massive cd collection isn't really a big deal.
