| Okay i read on Pioneer's forum that covering them up is okay. So i'm going to make some dust covers tomorrow out of shoeboxes and cover them with the paper they were packaged in. Been a wee paranoid about doing that and pillow cases or blankets I feel are too warm/heavy for them. |

No that's why I was confused about this..it conflicted with what it says in the manual. It doesn't say "while in use keep it ventiliated" it seems to mean like I said "keep the player ventiliated, esp the CD Drive". Even on my stereo-mini system, it suggests don't keep the device in some place like a locked cabinent where it can't get ventilation, and this i've always thought meant while not in use. Duh you wouldn't do it while in use, cause your using it, and there's no point to have something covered up while your using it (how can you be using something covered up?). |
I've always covered my stuff when I'm not using it. I just toss a blanket over the whole thing. I don't like, wrap the equipment in blankets.
You don't need to do this, but it does keep the dust off. |

| Use some pillow cases/bedding sheets if you like to cover your gear when it's NOT in use. The dust is a killer for those channel faders. Just a suggestion that's all. If you want to keep your gear longer and obviously if you want to keep the resale value of the product then I would cover them when you're not using them. |

Ok well while were almost on the topic. Whats the deal with cases then...
I noticed some people, discobiscuit for example always seem to have thier gear in the cases, how is the ventilation in them? From what ive seen in pictures it looks minimal. However there arent exactly fans to block on my CDJ200s or DXM06, is all gear like that?
Do you use the lids to cover them when not in use?
Im looking into getting a case or some alternative like that, because im tierd of moving them individually around my house/friends houses. |

Thanks, that's what I am going to do. I'm not sure about pillow cases for the CDJs, cause they seem kind of heavy but i'm using the pillow case for my mixer. |

I had the two channel version of that mixer, the fader kinda craps out early though (didn't clean it much mind you). How do you like it? |
Bought it used almost a year ago and no problems for me what so ever. |

I was using the dust covers on my Techs for a while but it got annoying as crap to take them on and off all the time.
Now I just go over it with a swiffer sheet every once in a while.
Though I suppose I should be covering it. |
