stick with 900s or get some 2000s
stick with 900s or get some 2000s Posted on: 01.11.2012 by Sudie Torchia Hello guys,I have a pair of CDJ900s, which I have had for around 4 months. they replaced my 1000mk3s which I had for around 3 years. I use them to mix CDs and the occasional USB thing. I got them new and to be honest, I am not impressed with the build quality and feel (in comparisson to my 1000's that I still use and have regular access to). The tempo control has loads of play in it around -0- and it takes ages to load CDs, and sometimes cuts out if you do a fast spin back (not that I do that sort of thing). Anyway, I started looking on eBay at 2000s and you can pick a pair up for under 2k. I really don't need to get them as it would be for home use only, and they seem mega over kill for the home (none of the clubs I currently play even have them). I also can't really afford them, but have planted a seed in my own head now and have a major urge to get em! any advise/views welcome | |

Sudie Torchia 02.11.2012 | I believe, I'm going to stick with the 900's. The guy on ebay has just turned my offer down and all the others I've seen are far too much than I can afford. The more I believe about it the more I believe it is an impulse buy. However....... , I now have another idea! I was believeing of getting an old single CDJ1000mk2 for some 3 deck action! You can pick them up really cheap now, although most of the ones I have seen have operating issues now. |
Alla Bluemke 02.11.2012 | The screen are worth it if you are willing to pay. The amount of info on the screen makes it so easy to find tracks and everything. |

I don't really need anything, but just want the 2000s. I didn't know if there were any benefits to me getting them? My mixing is pretty basic, bit of looping and the occasional twist of the filter, that's it. |
Addie Engbrecht 01.11.2012 | Sorry that I'm sidetracking. Are you talking about US dollars? I dont see any sets of CDJ 2000's for anywhere near under $2000. |
Ara Tima 01.11.2012 | By something that you will actually need with that cash, you've said it your self, you don't need them and you can't really afford them. People put up with shit a lot worse then 900s. I'm sure there's people out there on 100s/200s Get a flashy new mixer, a set of 1200s... something you don't have something near top of the line already Keep in mind the CDJ2000 Nexus will be out/is out soon |
