Alright! Gotta buy my setup in about 3 weeks! Final arrangement
Whew! I did alot of homework comparing prices and getting some infos and suggestions from you people which i thank alot cause without your infos and suggestions, i wouldn't know where to start and probably end up spending hundreds more on useless stuff considering im just a beginner.
Anyways here is my final setup and im excited to get it in about 3 weeks. (have to wait for the order and all and the money) so here it is:
Pioneer CDJ1000 for $1047
Pioneer CDJ100 (for the extra effects) for $298
Pioneer DJ Mixer 300 for $340
Odyssey System Road Case $260 (acommodates for the cdj100 and 1000 as well as the mixer
Senheiser280 DJ HP for $92.00
Proel Dual Brace KBD Stand $52.00
Im buying Two new MACKIE speakers as well along with two support tripod at a major discount price for 1,299.00 for the two MACKIE SRM-450 Speakers and only 80 bucks for the stand
bringing this grand total to $3622.37 with tax already included
whatya think now? great deal huh. Everything complete system, new speakers, case and all for well under 4 grand.
this is my final setup and i cannot wait to get started. MACKIE Speakers sound bad ass in my opinion and so far is the best sounding compared to PEAVEY and Behringer brands. nice
once again thanks guys for making all this setup all good for me. I had to get all of these asap since the helpful nice store owner has given me major discounts.

looks like a nice set up. Although, the cdj-100 is going to look like a piece of shit when sitting next to that bad ass cdj-1000

yeah it would look like a peice of shit but im getting it because two cdj1000 is just too expensive and too much PRO for me. plus i like the jet, zip, and wah on the cdj100 features and the cdj1000 didn't have that.
i was going over the top in the firrst place with a dual cd player and cdj1000.
this is more practical

well i can understand why you're getting CD players instead of turntables, but why don't ya get a cheaper CD player like CDJ-700S, and a better mixer like DJM-500? DJM-300 doesn't have effects at all. from what i see, you're buying this setup to not just play the music, but to mix them together. think you'll have more fun fiddling with the mixer than watching the bad ass CDJ-1000 playing tracks... but that's just my opinion.

I say skip the cdj-1000 and go for another cd-100s so you have dual of them
then you can go for a djm-500/600 mixer instead and I think you will aprecciate that much much more
believe me....the cdj-1000 is just pure overkill.....you will NEVER use all those functions in a gig if your'e playing trance...

I think you can get a CDJ-1000 for under $1000. I've been looking around for prices. Where are you buying from Aldrian?

Yea, if i were given a choice i'd definitely get 2 cdj 500s or so.. and djm 500.. and with that amount of money i think i'd still have enough to buy another technics turntable to add in to my set. But well, buy what you're happy with you're gonna be stucked with them for years!

i would have to say, that two CDJ-700's and a DJM600 is the better way to go. you'll be better off.
