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.

I think you should buy Pioneer CDJ200's

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.

good luck let us know how it goes...

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.

should've gotten cdj-200s

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

Don't listen to all the 200 fanboys man. Congrats on your purchase and I'm sure those Stantons will serve you well!

we're fanboys for a reason

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
