i stick with the vinyl, dunno just add's that special thing about music .. give's me a better feeling .. of controlling it ..

never the less, i will buy a cd deck just to go with the flow .. i mean the mixing wont be different, only the technix

My experience is that CD's mix easier...

Which is complete bullshit, the only real difference would be the cue point, which takes about 5-6 seconds longer to find on a vinyl, big difference.

Originally posted by Mister_Michel I've followed the whole discussion, and I am planning on buying 2 cd-decks or 2 phono's, but I don't know which one yet. So basically you say that cd's have a better sound quality, but the best songs(and mostly by unknown artists) come out on vinyl and not on cd don't they?

From reading what others do I'm going to buy a better turntable, and more vinyls. Then I'll save them as wav files to preserve them hehe.
Then i can sell many of the vinyls, but still keep some really special ones.

in what way does VINYL improve the sound? I always thought it was an outdated media with lots of flaws..

It doesn't. Technically it's impossibly to recognize if a song is being played by cd or vinyl.

The only problem there is, is that a vinyl starts to sound worse after a while. The sleeves get damaged by the needle scratching on the vinyl.
It is an outdated medium, but it is still the best one to actually FEEL/SEE the music.
There is no audio difference 'cuz of the RIAA correction.

My boss is going to buy me a setup for a gift, but I can't decide which to go with, CDJ's or Turntables.

My question is this, for someone who will casually learn how to mix and is just starting out, which should I go with? I don't have any plans to be playing inside any clubs anytime soon...

I've got two cdj100s and a 1200MK2. Once you know how to beatmatch, its a skill thats transferable to both. Once I get a better PC though, I'll be uploading the vinyl to CDR and preserving it.
