Ive been using the 200's for the last three years at countless gigs, and they're holding steady.
The xone i just picked up a week ago. Its a huge improvement over entry level mixers. Still fettling with the filters though.
The two towers are more or less blown, but i have a few new woofers coming in soon.. its only s 2 minute fix. Everything else pounds enough for house parties..

yes, I'm aware I'm messy, ah well
new mixer! \o/
so now setup is:
Xone 42
2x Technics 1200M3D's (Shure whitelabel carts)
2x Pioneer CDJ 200's
Sony MDR 7506 cans
Alesis monitors
Kenwood amp
and some really boss and loud speakers from the same era as the amp (like 1969ish) lol
Definitely impressed with just about everything on the 42. I wish the faders had a biiiit more resistance, but I guess you can't get everything. The filter is outstanding and I am going to love trying to figure it out and the sound quality on it is impeccable. Not to mention the eqs are butter.
Best $900 I've spent in ages.
Next up is new cdjs. Looking at either 900's or 1000mk3's.

It looks like you mostly use the CDJ's, but why do you have them in the back. Isn't it a hassle to reach over the techs every time?

I need stands, and that'll probably happen after I get new cdjs.
It's a space issue, but it's really not that bad of a reach.

I didn't know they had updated the 92 with that faceplate as well. Snappy.

no because the bassdriver is missing in one of the speakers

Ah ha... Apologies, I just know a lot of really nice old speakers. But as it turns out you're completely right.
Keithos, it would be savage if you could get a new faceplate. I'd be interested in that as well, although I know from some previous reading on here that someone was looking to get a new one and it's supposedly a lot of work undoing all the components as all the circuitry is vertically installed.
That Styleflip vinyl crowd is another option i'm looking into, only costs 50 smackeroos and looks pretty snazzy too

I'd like to see how the UV markings it has work, or should i say how effectively they work.
I quite like it compared to the bland grey they had on the old one (the one i have)..
