Well, I was able to get my hands on an old receiver that used to power speakers that were huge and powerful, so I think it should work to power my monitors. It weighs about 50 pounds and is from like, the 1960's :p
I'm pretty sure it'll work :) |

Yeah, this thing is built solid. I'll just need to go get some cables and hook it all up. It'll be interesting using this vintage piece of equipment :) |

Old skool amp you got there, any home theatre receiver/amplifier will work :)
BTW, I'm an audiophile NOOB too, it took me like 10 threads to figure out how to hook up my mixer to my computer, and now that the mixer has finally arrived, I'm missing a cable :p
P.S. Very nice setup, I too plan on picking up some CDJ200's or if I'm feeling giddy, some CDJ800MK2's to mate with my PCV-275 :) |

I hate when you go and buy a new pice of equipment and you have it all unpacked and start setting it up when you relise you have forgot certain cables. :(
Happend when i baught my soundsystem damn forgot i needed RCA/TRS adaptors. I cant find any cables that go from RCA to TRS so looks like im gonna have to make my own. |

Hah, hooking it up to a comp is something in the distant future... I've never been too adept in the skill of hooking systems up (I basically only know how to hook up video game systems to televisions :( ).
So this has been a much-needed learning experience.
And the 200's work great for me. I'd like the vinyl replication ability, but not enough to make the jump in price just yet. And especially a jump in price from 200-800mk2 :wtf: |

Me in the near future:
- I want a pair of CDJ-800MK2's...
- I have no money...
-, I'd like to order 2 CDJ-200's please...
Question, can you use the platter on the 200's for fastforwarding (not scratching, just finding your cue) like on the 800/1000? |

Yeah, but it's kind of like the tempo slider, it'll make the track sound sped up if you do it. I tend to just hold down the search button. |
