BUYING A PIONEER MIXER!

Post by Dezbeatz92 » Fri Mar 25, 2011 2:16 pm

Hi all,

i need a few shouts to confirm in my head wether to go for a djm 600/700/800, if done some research and regarding the major differences between the 700 and 800 is just the colour effects and midi input... that right?

baring in my im comfortably only able to spend 600 quid should i look to wait the extra month or is it not that much of a difference???

i would do full on extensive research to make my own decision but im at work and i simply havent the time :/ !!

any shouts appeciated!! :4:

DJM-900 coming out this or next month.... looks like an upgrade from the 800.

you may have your heart set on Pioneer, but in my experience A+H mixers have been superior, hands down.

THis would fit nicely in your budget, if u digged might be able to find even better price..

yeah, wouldn't go for Pioneer either.. too expensive, and not that well build or great sounding.
The DJM-900 are rolling in at 1900 euros!! :-o

unless you need the four channels, then go for a smaller mixer.

Pioneer all day long!!

the sound quality on the djm 700, 800 and presumably the 900 is absolutely fine

the sound quality on the djm 600 is pretty shabby though!

allen & heath are good if you listen to your tracks off of 1 deck, lift the tone arm up with that little cue level thing every time you play a record, and wear white satin gloves when handling them.

everyone else uses pioneer

Okay guys this has left me thinking the A+H and Pioneer mixers are in close competition only difference seems to be in effects quality of build and sound, baring mind the standard of my mixing i believe im going to go for a lesser model and upgrade later i might aswell i think im going for the 42 for now ill keep my eyes on the djm 800's when the 900 is out.. hopefully i can pick one up at a decent price then!!

Thanks for all help this can be locked unless others want it open! Bizzle
