th3rio Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Hey guys, I made a topic a little while ago about wanting to get into DJing and what equipment to get. I got a lot of advice and got told to ask for shipping from interstate on ebay or gumtree etc so I have done so and looked into it.Ive found a CDJ MK3 1000 Pioneer Pro DJ x 1, that I could possibly pick up for $1000, but deal ends really soon is that a good price? Its near new, hardly used and looked after.Also, what does x1 mean? do I need x2??Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyman Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 indeed it is good gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lloydc Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 perfect setup for a beginner (provided it's all in good condition)cdj800's are much the same as 1000's in feel, minus a few features of course.DJM400s are great little mixers, hdj1000's aren't bad either.you'd have no problems making the transition from this setup to a proper club setup with 1000s and a djm800 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
th3rio Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 legends, thankyou!so the price is at about 1k now, how far should I keep bidding before it gets over priced, taking into consideration its second hand , and no idea REALLY what condition its in?

lloydc Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 i recon the cdjs are worth around the $800 mark for the pair and the mixer about $400 ish...if i were after something like that, i'd expect to pay around $1200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
th3rio Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 Alright lads, i missed out on that set up unfortunately but have my eyes on another!2 cdj1000 mk3 decks a djm400 mixer with all the cords. Hes gonna throw in a powered speaker he used around the house. I can get this for between 2 - 2,300 $ Also, whats the diff between a 2 and 4 channel mixer? means I can only do so much or?

andyman Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Also, whats the diff between a 2 and 4 channel mixer? means I can only do so much or?Without sounding like an asshole, I think you need to do alot more research before dropping 2k on a setup.

Cupe Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 2 channel mixer means u can only plug 2 things in (ie. your 2 turntables)4 channels means you can plug in more shit (ie. 2 turntables, an effects unit and some other shit)you're gonna want more than 2 channels imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapFive Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 the extra 4 channels are usually used for effects/another deck to sample off, your choice if you want to haev them now or worry about it later, this little guy isnt really the most feature rich mixer... for that price, try to break it down like this...a used CDJ1000mk3 goes for about lets say $800 maxso $1600 for 2, that means your paying $400 - $700 for a DJM400 mixer?they are only $800 brand new...Ebay brand new DJM400i think your paying a little too much, for $2000 its an ok deal but i wouldnt go above that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
