why is the cdj-800mk2 half the price of the cdj1000-mk3. are the sound qualities the same between the two? but what makes up 500 dollars between the two.

features, check the pioneer website for exact details

honestly, not a whole lot of difference in "playability"

Which is why I prefer the 200 above all other models. Best product for it's cost IMO.

But the 800 is still a better value if you're looking for vinyl emulation. Depends on what you're looking for it to do. For straight mixing, the 200s are awesome.

I've seen that same question 2-3 times the pass week

yup use the search button.


Anyway, the MK3 isnt designed for those that already own the MK2. I believe its more for those that dont have the 1000s already. Thats why the MK1 and MK2 have been discontinued.

i JUST posted this same topic two days ago.

1000's have better loop functions with a greater accuracy than 800's. they both function about the same. so i hear. in the thread above. but i'm curious, when you say waveform display, do you mean a display that looks like traktor waveform display or something different?

someone please correct me if i'm wrong.

Yea, it's kinda like a mini waveform so you can see where the track gets loud and soft and stuff...not as precise as traktor or virtual dj though I think.

these are the improvements on the mk3, and they may have one also on the 800 mk2.
