[QUOTE="Craig Hauber, post: 203395, member: 272"] You don't have to buy the top-of-the-line, nor do you have to buy new. Never met a DJ who turned down a DJM-800 when I was running a club (even when their rider called for better) Even the DJM-850 new is reasonably priced compared to the 900. I have had issues passing off non-Pioneer or Rane though. However even in the worst situation the DJ and associated "posse" would panic-call around and someone would show up with acceptable gear -which was good as usually those type of DJ's were hard on the stuff and it was nice to put the club's gear away for the night unmolested! (and there were those those times with some exceptionally abusive guys where the owner would lock the good stuff away in the office, claim that the "pioneer broke last night and was out for repair" and we would drop the expendable Behringer "pioneer clone" in the booth!) If you were wondering: [url]http://www.music-group.com/Categories/Behringer/Mixers/DJ-Mixers/DJX900USB/p/P0A56[/url] Mostly it wasn't "physical" abuse, but sloppy drinking habits with whatever bottle of dom/cristal/vueve they managed to get their hands on:)~:-)~:smile: [/QUOTE]
