And how much is this set up going to cost roughly?
(I'm about to make a beginner purchase myself)

So its fuck all, wouldn't be noticable for at least a couple of minutes or even longer (I doubt a track being 0.1 of a beat off the other would stand out).
The pitch slider on a 200 also wouldn't be long enough to give you the resolution to be able to change the pitch of a track by 0.02% if it were slightly out, chances are with the 200 you're going to be more than 0.04% out at any one time anyway.
If you can't beatmatch with an 0.05% accuracy, its you not the machine.
ahhhhh...i love it when people state that pitch resolution isn't that important. it always give me a laugh.

Xone + 800mk2
If you can afford a 92 it's probably one of the best investments you can make in DJ equipment...

It's the difference between wasting all your time riding the pitch and allocating for the technical deficiencies of the equipment and actually getting to something creative and worthwhile. Admittedly, it is more of a problem with the CDJ-100 and similar models, but even 0.5 isn't enough to keep things synced for very long a lot of the time. Depending on the production style of the music you're playing, it can cause serious problems when things go slightly out of phase as they are wont to do. It all comes down to this simply question: why pay all that money for a piece of equipment you're going to have to babysit a lot of the time? It isn't a matter of ability; this is a question of time, and the best way to invest it.

Lol. If you are worried about the difference with playing on a 1000 or 800 at a club, you shouldn't be playing at clubs
What if you get there and they have a Denon dual unit? Or some crap decks? Be prepared for anything.
But yes, mismatched decks at home, ewww.
