Disc Jockey Consoles

[Adone]

I want to start doing some DJing (not Don Juaning, Disc Jockeying) and I'd like some advice. I'm gonna start out really cheap, so what would be the "less horrible" choice, among these?

Shop ebay. Here's a dual CD unit that sold for $81.00.

All you need is a mixer to go with it (stay away from Radio Shack crap), an amp, a decent quality microphone, and a set of speakers. Your probably better off to buy the speakers brand new.

You might also want to check around at music stores that sell used equipment.

Thanks, but I'd rather have something with a big enough jog wheel. What about the three I have listed? Which one is the best?

You gotta really tell us what you're looking for. First the budget will determine what equipment you'll be buying. Next is what kind of equipment are you looking for, 2 turntables or 2 cdj's? For mobile or for home? Is this going to be a long term hobby or are you just seeing how it is, if you think you'll be doing this for years then get the best equipment out so you save money in the long run.

Check out djforums.com and just read up there to find out what's good. Almost always there's someone in the exact same position as you with the replies already written out for you, so you don't have to wait. Much like with these forums

Wait, read again my question I didn't ask advice about "what to buy" in general... I asked "which one is better among these?"...

Try a disc jockey forum?

My personal buying guide:

If it's not Sony and it's not sold at Wal-mart, it has some quality.

I'm not a Disc Jockey, so I can't offer you much advice on which is the best system.
