DJ SYSTEM. FOR BEGINNERS. super cheap check it and read it

Short version is on the bottom

First I will write a little note from me, this is my opinion, and of course I share this opinion with you because Im hoping that you will buy my dj system, I wont lie to you, but this is my opinion not some imaginary crap, so here it goes:
After using this setup for about 4 months I decided to move on, and buy high end dj system. When I got this system I was very sceptical about it, because I read on this board that I shouldnt bother and I should get good equipment so I wont have to upgrade it later. I couldnt do it b/c I didnt have that much money to spend, and the more important thing is that I wasnt sure If I will be good in spinning, and If I wasnt I didnt want to lose money. Of course you can sold your technics on ebay for a good price, but I couldnt afford to lose any money on that deal. So I got the lowend decks and lowend mixer. After few days of practice(few hours a day) I noticed that I can "beatmatch" on them. Right now I can beatmatch on them really good, BUT the beats start "trainwrecking" after about 25seconds, and you have to correct it. I have learned the basics on the setup and thats what it is. It is to learn beatmatching/and listening to the music. You can mix with that setup, thats not the problem.
thats it.

You can buy some dj package but they want to much for it. In my opinion they are two kind of decks low end and high end, there is no middle, either decks are very good or are low end(im not saying they are bad)

Here is what Im selling and description of it:

2(two) Gemini XL-100 turntables, and dustcovers - They are belt driven, pitch +-6, 33/45rpm. They work like new ones, i dont see any mechanical problems and there is none. They have few scratches, and dust cover is full of them, but they work like new ones.

2(two) slipmats

2(two) cartridges - one is stanton 500-II, and the other one Stanton 505

1(one) Radioshack SSM-50 Mixer - 2 channels, 2phono, 2line, 1mic, start/mute knobs for each channel, cue level, and listen now. This mixer does not have knobs for bass/mid/treble for each channel, BUT it has 2 knobs(bass/treble) for the output, so it affects both channel. Cue options- Ch1 or Ch2 in your headpshones, BUT I found a way to have either stereo(both channels in your headphones) or split(one channel in one cup, the other one in the other cup) and I can assure you that this trick work, you dont have to unscrew a mixer, its very simple to do it

+ I will add 7 trance vinyls why? Because I will spin techno. I like trance but techno is my favourite EDM

those are the vinyls:

1. Salt Lake - Rendezvous (original, recluse); dedicated

2. ASOT 2004 Sampler 003- Whirlpool - under the sun (solarstone), Remy & Roland Klinkenber - Fearless, Mark Otten - Tranquility; armada

3. Scott Bond vs Solar stone - naked angel (original, jussi polet, afterburn); ID&T

4. Scott Bond vs Solar stone - naked angel (original, jussi polet, afterburn); ID&T

5. Kay Cee - Escape (kay cee club mix), Love Stimulation (vector mode rmx), Love Stimulation (trance club mix)

6. Whitelabel/Promo - Cor Fijneman - Healing (vocal, instrumental); Black Hole

7. Oceanlab - Satellite (markus shulz, original, flipside vocal); ultra

so the shit fucks up after 25 seconds? errr.

By trainwrecking, I mean that the beats start to drift away from each other. What you need to do is to push one of the records to adjust it and thats it. Like I said You will notice that beats start to drift after about 25seconds, so if you correct it right of a way it is barely noticable.It is very common in lowend decks.

Your system trainwrecks after 25 seconds or so because it's nearly impossible to perfectly beatmatch to records by ear. Even if you're using technics, you still have to adjust the records to keep them in sync if they aren't perfect. I don't think the trainwrecking has anything to do with the tables as long as they run at a constant speed.....

So maybe it happens b/c my "skills" but I wanted to mention that

You better sell you Numark Matrix 3 mixer for 275(youre saying that your friend is selling that mixer.... yeah right) HAHAHHAHAHA. YOu can get new one for that price, im wrong you can get it from $240
THAT WAS A WASTE OF MONEY YOU FAG, you paid 300 for something that you will end up upgrading anyway, you must be an idiot.
Its not my fault that you cant use belt drive TTs, that you need the top of the line equipment to beatmatch, its not my fault that you need superb equipment to compensate you mixing skills or lack of.
one more thing FUCK YOU, and dont call it piece of shit, b/c that is good enough for a begginner. If you buy lowend dj setup why pay more, for something that you will end up upgrading anyway(im talking about lowend setup that cost around $350 or more but it will never be good enough to stick with it for a long period of time, PROBABLY THATS WHAT YOU DID, and now you regret it)
you dont need to answer to this post b/c you're on my ignore list

Direct Drives are still better. and when did i say anything about how you need good equip to beatmathc, this guy is so stupid.. I dont think one thing in your whole paragraph made sense to me Polak you ******.. so go commit suicide you poor piece of shit and save me the trouble (awaiting smart ass comment from Polak for him to proove something)

Come on guys, Chill with the fighting, The guys only trying to fix his mixtake of buying low end tables, Leave him be...No reason to fight!

i recommend lowend shit stuff for n00bs... theyll get a feel for how djing is... i bought my omnitronics dd2250's 2 yrs ago, and i havent bought new ones yet.. they suck, but i still mix either perfect or near perfect mixes on them... on better equipment i mix even better... i luv playing on ttx's.. ive only screwed up one time on them, and that was bcus a scratch in the record... so basically what im trying to say is, if yur a n00b and wanna try djing for a while, get this lil setup, its better than AtomixMP3...
