I agree with this. It’s really hard for people to grasp this concept for some reason. Your money is probably better spent elsewhere than on cheap CD players and a generic mixer. I know for a fact that right now you can grab a Z2 and two super OEM tables for under a grand. That setup will easily allow you to play in any bar or club with a turntable setup so long as you grab an Audio 4 off of eBay or the likes. Not all clubs use CD players and some that do even have Technics right there waiting for you.
Of course, this is all assuming you can’t be bothered to just slap an RCA into the mixer and use your own controller.
