DJ's...speaker/equipment questions????
Ok, i have basically done clubs and what not for my gigs, so i never really had any decent speakers/amps for myself. I was looking to purchase some equipment, i guess nothing top of the line, because money IS an issue here, just something that soudns decent, and i something that can do a small party, maybe 100-200 people.
I'm also looking to laying down some tracks with some live mixes or mixes i put together in my basement...i may just get an external CD recorder for that, since i don't feel like screwing around with my computer to mix.
I looked at the Gemini XTR-400 setup, which is two 10" along with a powered 15" sub that runs everything w/built in amp. Anyone hear of this? Any good?
What speakers do you recommend? amps?
Thanx

Actually, i replaced the Vinyl (always used my bro's tables since he DJ's too, considering re-investing in tables again though, just gotta dig up my vinyl)....i have the Pioneer CDJ-1000's and a Vestax PCV-175 mixer. My headphones are the Sony 700DJ phones, but they have already cracked twice on me (junk), so i think i'm going to invest in the new Pioneers phones that just came out.
Anyways, what i spin....almost anything. I DJ'd a club with rock music for a while, not what i really wanted to do, but i knew the people, damn fun club, don't think i left sober ever. I'm really into Florida Breakz and almost anything really. Some progressive house, progressive trance stuff....every once and a while get into the chill-out aspect too. I try not to label myself really.
I'm just looking to throw some demo's out there now...prolly just use a TASCAM CD-RW4U external recorder that i'll hook up to my mixer, make live mixes, then possibly mix-down on my computer...
