    True, I really love my toys don't get me wrong Went to a big store testing several monitors.. I was really in LOVE with the VXT6s but hey, the RPs are really good as well, personally i think the best in this price category (bout 200 euros each).

    Really want to start producing, got the PC hardware, just need the soundcard now! Thinking of buying a M-audio EMU 1616 M. And last but not least, a nice peace of software! What do you guys recommend?

    Hey lads! This is my setup @ home... nothing special really, but it does the trick for me!



    2 Pioneer CDJ 1000s MKIII
    2 KRK RPs 6
    DJM 400 and the Technics Headphones..

    Need to get some better standards for my monitors

    it's nice that you have everything in a real set up. But why do you have that cd player and the Kaos pad soo far away from everything else? It looks like you could have perhaps built room in it for vinyl in the pull outs.

    Really nice setup bro. I love setups that make all of the equipment flush with the table.

    wow, thanks bro. I too have been looking for a cd player with better than the .10% that the Pioneers have. I can work with them, but i'd rather have the pitch dialed in and really be able to ride those eq settings. I think you might have sold me on them.

    ^ Really enjoying them. The .02% pitch adjustment is exactly what I needed. The .05% pitch adjustment that my last CD players had didn't cut it when it came to long tech house and minimal mixing that I've really been into lately.

    The loop function combined with the fine pitch adjustment (of .02%) is also amazing. I can set up a loop and slowly push it into play over a several minute duration without the track getting off beat what-so-ever, which I also couldn't do with my old CD player.

    And for features that some of the other CDJs don’t offer:

    - Loop Divide: A very fun feature to play around with. When used the right way it can really make the end of a transition from one song to another build up and sound really powerful. It's also very precise considering it can create a perfect 4 beat loop to build on all by itself.
    - The USB function, while it doesn't work with my 100gb or 500gb hard drive, it is still petty practical and solid. I have been throwing on some of my new mp3s & wavs onto a flash drive so that I can play them before I go and burn a CD (b/c I usually wait to have 8-9 tracks before I burn the CD)
    - The scratching features on this device are also a blast to play with. While I don't know the slightest thing about scratching I keep finding myself playing with the various scratch functions available.

    There are a lot of other features these players have to offer but those are what first came to my head. Overall I have been extremely satisfied and all of the new features have made me feel like a little kid playing with a new toy!

    Yeah the Event 20/20's.
    I like them, very powerful sound for monitors, with good bass response and a clean output. Had them for a little over a year now.

    Yeah, still a bit of a work in progress. New headphones next, probably the A&H-ones.

    hey bro, you really should get a 4X4 and a couple small sheets of MDF from home depot and make some stands for your speakers, so they face you better.

    nice set up though bro. I'm going to need to get me some cd players again soon.
