Has anyone used the Denon DNS700's or the DNS1200's? I know the 700 is entry level but i'm on a limited budget and brand new to DJing. Assuming it's worth saving and getting the 1200's though, as from what i've heard they're tried and tested as a good pair of players.

There might be. I seem to remeber seeing something like that somewhere along the line. The problem is when you gig you have to bring them with you. Really tho Serato is the solution that makes the most sense because you can do just that.

yea.. u see that dudes thread whos making a t shirt saying fuck cdjs... whats the difference?? now hes got me thinkin twice about a cdj

lolwut? Why should you give a shit about what it says on a shirt? For one thing it's an old thread and secondly that guy is a douchebag. Make up your own minds people!

true dat found a good deal.... gna get a pair of stantons for 280$ but one is a t52x and another t52b what mixer do u use btw

This is my set up here. Vestax PMC-07, it's about 7 years old or so, still kicking.

I dont think its worth paying extra for the newer models and prefer the mk2 over them. The number of new models i have been on that feel terrible is quite high!

mk2 or stfu.

I have a mk2 (from about 1985-88 i believe) and a mk5 (2004). the mk5 definitely tracks better closer to zero, post-calibration-- technics are built like tanks but that center detente on the mk2's and 3's has always been a problem; things just drift.

w/ that said, unless you have a habit of throwing your gear off of 10 storey buildings, if you take care of technics they really will last a lifetime-- partly because of the build quality, and partly because every single part is user-replaceable-- true professional gear.

Of course mk2 has a dodge area around 0, I wont lie. But I actually like the 'click' and find it usual when riding the pitch so I dont need to look. I can actually feel where I am and it helps get things right in my head. When I go on Technics without the click, I can still do it, but mk2 is where my home is.

Nice set up

shit club standard***

Pioneer's are overrated and overpriced. I see a lot of the "good" clubs (own opinion i guess) using Allen & Heath.

Never been a fan of the EQ's on Pioneers. Rane and Allen & Heath all the way for me.

I do not miss the center detent on MKII's at all. That shit was a hassle, you would be in the middle of a mix and anytime you got near the center, you would have to re-pitch both records.

^ yeah often.... but without it, with music thats based around the same tempo.. it could make things a little harder for blending over a long period of time... if ur just a noth away from perfect pitch...

how robust are those in comparison with the dented ones? samey?

I have the M3D's which are exactly the same as the MKII's but without the center detent, the zero button and the sunken on/off switch which was another great feature as I play my turntables battle style. Like the any other 1200/1210's, they are built like tanks. I've had mine for 10 years now and they are still going strong.
