    Hi,

    I’ve just bought my first PA system and will share my findings with you.

    I chose 2 powered speakers Alto Professional TrueSonic TS212 and one active subwoofer Alto TS212S. They’re incredibly great value. I had the opportunity to listen to them before buying.

    You should consider them. They sound like the EV ZLX12 but are cheaper.

    Regards

    Hi !

    Thank you so much for your comments !
    Your feedback and my research have lead my to extend my budget (i.e. delay my purchase).

    I discovered the Yamaha DXR series and guess I could get a pair of DXR15 (the budget is greatly extended ?). Maybe you have any experience with those ?

    Hi,

    I’ve had the same struggle last year and chose the DDJ-RR. I didn’t regret my choice ever since. Of course, the budget was not an issue.

    I wanted to start Bedroom-DJing for fun and wanted not to be restrained if I wanted to take it to the next level.

    Compared to the RB, the build quality is much higher and the physical feeling as well. There are more inputs and outputs, more controls, pitch sliders are more precise, etc. I would definetely regret buying a RB for such reasons.

    Today, I left the bedroom for a very few occasions. Nevertheless, I really enjoy the controls, the XLR outputs I use to connect my monitor-speakers (RCA is fine sound-quality wise, buy XLK are more robust if you plug/unplug them often).

    Now there’s the software that is : Rekordbox DJ or Serato. Well, as I never used any before, I’m quite fine with Rekordbox 🙂

    I hope I helped.

    Hi,

    Thanks to your feedback, I understand that a very high build quality is mandatory for the stressful club environment. From this point of view, MacBooks are standards because of their high build quality alone. Thus, any Windows PC must match this very high build quality and therefore are expensive as well.

    But I don’t expect to practice in any club or any customer party very soon. I just bought my DDJ for fun.
    With that in mind, I bought an ASUS ROG GL552VW (Windows 10, Core i7 6700HQ, 16 gb RAM, 128Gb SSD + 1To HDD, USB 3.0, etc). I’ll make some tests with it.

    Thanks for your answer, Vintage.

    I’m not keen to spend so much money on used stuff and don’t have a budget for a new one. But I do understand your point as I was a previous Iphone owner : the resell value makes the next one cheaper making it affordable.
