Lol.
Yeah I doubt the DB4 is being replaced. Even all the rental houses said nobody at gigs / festivals etc ever hired them in and they just sat there collecting dust. I know a few die hard fans, but I can understand why commercially AH wouldn’t be interested.
If you want the DB4, you may as well get it for a bargain and enjoy yourself.
Can’t wait to get permanent set-up when the eldest moves out. XDJ-XZ, a PLX-1000 and a second hand XDJ-1000Mk2. I can shut the door and the incessant mithering simply disappears.
I’ve got a DJM-500 up in the loft somewhere.
Plus the other 1200 mk2.
Could take it right back.
Gave my old CDJ800s to nick Muir about 9 years ago.
Honestly I think I’m digital only now
benson Plus the other 1200 mk2
Is it in good nick?!
As has been mentioned, trying out first before buying is a good plan. I couldn’t get on with the feel of Denon (despite being attractive looks and functionality wise) and went with Pioneer after trying them both out in the shop. This was 5 years ago, so maybe things have changed since then.
Along_the_Wire yeah, great shape. Must be 25 years old.
benson compared with anything before the DJM-900nxs2, the analogue sound of the DJM 500 and 600 are much better for turntables.
I don’t know how true it is but I heard that in the early to mid 2000s Pioneer made their new Digital Mixers sound worse on Vinyl, to increase the wow-factor of the clarity that CDJs gave in clubs. If it’s true it definitely worked as part of the marketing strategy.
Eventually people just wanted to use Allen and Heath for the Analogue sound again but it seemed to take a while for people to realise what was happening and its taken until this new line of mixers to get good vinyl Pre-amps.
