Im in the market for something new to add to my dj setup in my house. I currently have:
- Technics SL1200
- Pioneer DJM 500
- Final Scratch
- Pioneer HDJ1000 (headphones)
I'm looking at cd players. I was thinking of the Pioneer CDJ 1000mk2 cd players. They look great. Any other upgrades i should consider ?

either a solid pair of headphones (if you dont already have) or CD decks, or both :o
I just picked up a pair of CDJ800's yesterday, man Im in love with these things. amazing
their a lot cheaper than the 1000mk2s, fewer features, etc... pretty much does everything I need to do perfectly
loop, scratch amazingly, 0.05% pitch steps, great peice of machinery
wayyyy cheaper than the 1000MK2s, check it out

I'll check out those cdj 800's. The thing is i can get the CDJ1000 MK2 on ebay for $850.00, which is a great price. I already have good headphones (Pioneer HDJ1000) Thanks for the responce. |

| Well you seem to have pretty much everything that a DJ needs, so either get the CD deck, or go all out and buy a club.:D |

| You have a good DJ setup. I would say buy better sound equipment (amp, speakers, sub whatever). |

or buy some headphones and final scratch
Just kidding... Do you have good monitor speakers yet? |

There is a lot to add!
Pioneer EFX-500 - this allows you to control the FX much better than the unit integrated in the DJM.
Redsound C-loop - Easy to use Dj sampler, small learning curve, great results!
M-audio BX5 monitors - i have them, they are amazing for mixing, although not very good for production (lack a bit in the low end)
Pioneer CDJ1000MK2, Denon S5000 - great cd players... but if you have Final Scratch, why buy them? Just rip the cd's to your portable, wav quality! :eyes: |

FS is great, but a friend of mine has the cdj1000 and that jog dial is amazing !! It has reverse, loops effects. Very fun to use.
The C-loop thing looks real cool. I want to try it out in person though. Thanks for the responce. |
