Along_the_Wire Amps cheers - no, plan to have a shelf across the top of the decks - seen a really good looking one
Homegrove Work tables seem quite good for a home DJ set up, just need to figure out the monitor-situation. But they’re sturdy, right height, and don’t cost a fortune.
Along_the_Wire All a bit of a mare getting a table specific to my needs. I’ve got our old builder coming round and building one for me - will work at much cheaper and to my exact specs.
Homegrove Along_the_Wire that’s sweet. Might do that at some point, I have a really specific desing on my mind too. My current one is a Frankenstein’s monster of Ikea and other cheap shelves held together with a large piece of glued laminated timber board.
Amps Homegrove Cabinet builder is what you want, over a carpenter / builder / Darren. My next one will be a bespoke build, might be a good few years away though. Want one with a proper decent lid, removeable interior surfaces etc.
Unbroken1 …ridiculous collab aside, I’d quite like to check this stuff out. The regular Kallax shelving is pretty good when slightly modified, and this new stuff is optimised for DJ kit in terms of height/width. https://about.ikea.com/en/newsroom/2022/09/08/ikea-to-launch-the-obegransad-collection-in-collaboration-with-swedish-house-mafia
Dan Unbroken1 Can’t believe it’s took them so long to do this. They’ve been sat on a fortune with this stuff for years.
Along_the_Wire Unbroken1 what does modular mean?! Preference is kit on a desk, don’t want stuff sunk as I’ve seen many times
Unbroken1 …always favoured a made-to-measure studio desk over a fitted console (not practical when you change kit as often as I do!), liked the look of these, but may not be wife-friendly dependent on your decor https://chunkystudiofurniture.co.uk
Unbroken1 Along_the_Wire ..separate decks and mixer as opposed to an all-in-one controller. Yep, agreed on the desk for the same reason.
Unbroken1 Dan …yeah, deffo. The new ‘shelving unit’ (or ‘JONJO’) looks decent. There was a mod where you could put the Kallax TV stand inverted on the top of the shelves than looked similar, but this is much neater obv.
Along_the_Wire Unbroken1 ..separate decks and mixer as opposed to an all-in-one controller. Eventually, I reckon, but well happy with the XZ - want to learn to mix some of my excellent vinyl in and out and a third CDJ - hopefully, I’ll have plenty of time on my hands…
whatever Along_the_Wire Do you think Pioneer will announce the release of the XZ2 this side of Xmas or any time soon?
