I've Opened This Topic In Order To Help Begginer Dj's In Purshing The Best Gear. Of Course We Are Talking About The Best Equipment The Companies Have To Offer, Which Means It Will Cost A Whole Lot Of Money. But Of Course The DJ's Can Buy What Ever They Need, And Have The Money For.
Plesae Post Replays With Your Opinion On The Best Equipment Can Be Found.
1x - SONY MDRV900 REMIX/STUDIO MONITOR HEADPHONE - 200 $
BS on the headphones. The V900's arent that great for DJ use, and arent that great overall. I would get the Ultrasone Edition7 for 3 grand. Yes, $3000 US Dollars. I'd take those over some more expensive headphones that don't seem to be closed or very isolating... cause those are the best that seem to be dj style.. others dont isolate a lot... www.meier-audio.dewww.edition7.com

I'm using
Technics MK2 1200(a 1210 would have been good though)
Vestax PMC170A - chrome mixer s you have to look after it more or it gets rusted
Ortofon concorde pro s
Technics RPDJ1210
dodgy speakers
I'm very happy with my set up but whatever you do MUST get Final Scratch...after having hesitated and checking on forums and pm-ing people i got it and i'm very happy with the decision made. Top system!

For the ortofons you can go with the nightclubs. For the mixer you can also add the Allen and Heath Xone 62 or even the 92 hehe

yea though most prefer the pio cdj1000mkII becasue the cdj1000 was out first and hence in all the clubs first the Denon DN-s5000 is far more superior than the pio cdjs....
also when looking at top mixer choices the top mixers are the djm600 the xone62 and now maybe the new denon dn-x1500...i've seen many demo vids on the denon and it is a VERY nice mixer with A LOT of nice features.....plus it utilizes all new technology whereas the djm is more old school....
dunno how much people will care about all this really as most think that since clubs use it (becasue they have for sooo long and are scared to change for fear teh djs wont know what to do) it is the best....
blah....

Okies
heres mine:
-3 x Technics 1200 mk 2
-Ortofon nightclub 'S' concordes
-Cloud CXM mixer- use these in most of the clubs i work in nowadays and they are the best ive ever used- beats pioneers, vestax the lot .New allen&heath looks good, but not used so cant comment
-Denon 2600F/2800f twin cd player-i personally cant stand CDJ type cd players and vinyl emulation crap
-Pioneer HDj 1000 'phones
Not fussed about monitor- as long as its got a punch and decent volume its cool
Basically what i use at the mo- it works extremely well together and no useless add ons and fancy thigns to go wrong
