What's up people. There's so much technical info on DJ equipment that I'm reading about, it's making my head spin. I can mix pretty well with a computer, but I'm sick of its limitations and I want to buy some real deal turntables. What should I get that's solid quality, but also user friendly (considering I'll be teaching myself how to use it)?
I don't care about the price... so what's the best option for a n00b? Pioneer DVJ 1000 Pro? Or is that too advanced to start with? Should I get 2 so I can set them up side by side for the most realistic "on the job training" experience? I'm all ears

1000s and a couple of turntables if price is of no concern.

by the way you've never said if you wanted vinyl or cd.

I'd want to go with CD, not vinyl just for the simple fact that I have zero vinyl experience. Can you guys provide any links for me to the products and/or a good place to buy the whole set up??

Sorry to sound like an ass. But it sure as hell seems like you're rushing into things. Learn what's out there, then you'll have a much easier time figuring out what setup is right for you. Google is your friend.

What "limitations" are you concerned with as far as laptop mixing goes?
Not saying there's no reason to get decks, I'm just curious. Be sure that you are looking into decks for the right reasons rather than for a lack of knowledge.
