i'm looking to start djing as a hobby and i'm looking in to getting some cdj's and a mixer. just something small to start off with but nothing crappy. but where are the stores that sell stuff?
i've googled and nothing.
where do you guys buy your stuff?

thx

keep an eye out for people looking to sell their stuff (usually to upgrade). i ended up finding mine here on TA, and got an amazing deal..... if your looking to start off - i would recommend my set up in a heart beat.

2 X cd-j 200's

1 X behringer djm700

if you look hard enough, you will likely be able to get all three for roughly $750-$900

i think that mixer is a little much to start with.
i was thinking more along the lines of vestax's vmc002.

dont go for cheap just cos ur inexperienced...ive always followed the rule of buying somehing really good or on average so that when u DO get good at what ur doing, u dont have to spend yet again to upgrade..and if u get a good mixer/CDJ, and then decide that this isnt what u want to do, u still have some resale value rather than selling it for pennies


PS. stay away from vestax

hmmm...good point.
so now i know to stay away from vestax and numark
so pioneer cdj's and possibly a behringer mixer...hmm
thanks for your help so far guys.


now i know that a store has more products then TA so anyone know of some stores in toronto area?

for mixers, even the pioneers are good...try the DJM-600 for averagely good


or just pay an arm and a leg for the beautiful DJM 800 which zabiela made us drop our jobs showing us the possibilities with it on tuesday

i don't think i'd be wanting to shell out around $1000 for just the mixer. maybe around 3-400. also is 4 channel really needed or can i stick with 2 channel?

the behringers are just replicas, you can try out the feautures of a high end mixer to see what like without paying thousands of dollars.

yea...exactly, used to be good. there's much better, and cheaper mixers out there nowadays.

uh..yea...so they should go for the djm-600 instead? which goes for about the same
