| Dedra Kreinbring 27.08.2013 | I used 5.1 Logitech speakers for ages! They worked great for me, and set me back |
| Olin Easley 27.08.2013 | I don't know much (hardly anything really) about speakers and amps, but a quick look at decks.co.uk tells me you may not be able to get a descent amp plus speakers for |

| Jacqualine Cieplik 28.08.2013 | If you a buy a HIFI system you should be able to run your out from the mixer into the imput of the HIFI. If you just buy the speakers you will need an amp. |
| Reba Olree 28.08.2013 | Cheers, So just any make size etc hifi speakers then. Cool i will have a good look toevening then. Is an amp not needed ??? Really appreciate this, thanks |
| Olin Easley 28.08.2013 | Surely, if you use your CDJs with USB sticks/CDs, you'll be ready for any CDJ in the club. :P |

| Olin Easley 27.08.2013 | Buying CDJs to use them with Traktor is a complete waste of money. |
| Stanley Peckman 27.08.2013 | Something you don't need to believe about just now but can consider down the line; you can get a tsi file from the Pioneer website that allows the CDJ 350's to work with Traktor Scratch without using timecode cd's. Just an option you might want to explore.... |

| Jacqualine Cieplik 27.08.2013 | Just buy a used hifi on ebay. |

| Ashanti Andreacchio 27.08.2013 | For software I recommend Rekordbox. But if you like to use your setup together with a computer then you should get Mixvibes Cross (not CrossDJ) it has full HID integration with CDJ350. It's to only software I know of that has HID and not just midi for the cdj350. What does that mean? well you can use your CDJ's to control the software and you get track info displayed also on the CDJ screen. You can also use the CDJ's as sound card. Mixvibes Cross is €79.99 or $99.99 and you can import Rekordbox liberary and get all hotcues, loopsnd memory points and beatgrids imported. As for speakers and amps. If you are going to be using them at home get some decent cheep studio active monitors |

| Reba Olree 27.08.2013 | Coldfuzion - Mine have USBS so should i still use rekordbox ??? Cheers everyone i no how to put music on to USBS but its just the speaker set up and amps i should be using. Does it matter ??? Thanks |

| Carlee Pickard 27.08.2013 | If I were you this is what i'd do: 1) Download Rekordbox 2) Import your tracks onto CDs (I don't believe yours have USB readers right?) 3) Plug in a set of headphones 4) Play** **Since you said you haven't got a clue with the setup, easy solution is to YouTube how to DJ. |
| Augustine Mitzen 27.08.2013 | you don't need software with that setup, just use CDs/USB sticks. as for speakers some decent Hi-Fi would do |
