My Purchase
Well guys, tomorrow I will finially bite the bullet and purchase my first pair of cdj's which is also my first major dj purchase. I chose the stanton c314's because of the 4 hot cues, price, effects and other reasons. I am getting the pair for 790$ final price at guitar center. Do you guys think this is a good deal or should I try to bargain more?
Wish me luck.

my personal opinion is to go for cdj200's but ill tell you what man, if your happy with it and i think the stantons are better than getting something like vestax of numark cdj's, then good for you! sounds like a damn bargain btw...but if you have any second thoughts the cdj200's are tried and true.

some pics of them. I know its really messy. I need to find a permanent spot for them. So far I'm really happy with them. The effects are very good, and the unit doesn't feel cheap.

Nice one, please let us know how you get on with them once you've had chance to get used to em
PS I learned on a mixer similar to yours - Numark DM1001, seeing that pic was like seeing an old frined in a photo

Yeah but I mean, he already made the purchase. No use making him feel bad about it by saying you shoulda got whatever. That was already made apparent to him, he didn't go with it...so +1 for trying something different.

haha. I remember when I bought that mixer new, almost 4 years ago. It was for my neighborhood radio station. Its a good but simple one.
I'd like to thank all you guys for the positive replys. I have a lot to learn about mixing/ dj'ing. The first being how to burn and catagorize my music
