Turntables
Numark TTX (2nd Hand cost between 150$ and 250$)
Really good to learn and to destroy, something that will take time cause they're build like a tank.
Other real solid turntables and I'm only mentioning ones that you can scratch with to keep options open. Please notice that straight arm dj turntables are not so good for the vinyl if he decides to just deejay music. I noticed that second hand turntables are more expansive in the US, so I don't mention the top in the game...yes I was checking eBay:
Stanton STR.8 150 (you have a s-arm version Stanton STR 150)
Reloop RP 7000
Vestax PDX 2000
Audio Technica AT LP 1240 (with USB) - I so badly want one myselfMixers
If you prefer not to go digital at all, you can add a Rane SL2 for that later plus some controller, you can chose from these solid DJ battle mixers:
Vestax PMC-05 Pro III VCA
Vestax PMC-06 VCA
Mixars Cut
Epsilon Inno-Mix2 BK
DJ-Tech DIF-1S V2
DJ-Tech DIF-2S mk2
Ecler Nuo 2.0
Pioneer DJ DJM-250MK2 (not really a battle mixer but hey)
Pioneer DJ DJM-400 (also not a battle mixer but really fun to mix with, the 45 is really expensive so...)There are better ones obviously.
You also have Serato ready DJ battle mixers for an affordable price and thy're solid mixers for vinyl only as well:
Mixars Duo
Numark ScratchIf you go digital you can skip the needles buy buying Phase for example.
Or just buy a Rane DJ One Controller.
Any way I would invest in a way to keep all options open:
– Analog and digital
– Turntablist and DJ (he can be both so why not?)Hope this helps somehow.
- correction: Pioneer DJ DJM-450 not 45...oey_oey
- Ecler Nuo 2.0 - also want one of these. but I have too much gear for too less time so...oey_oey
- i have AT LP1240s, they are beasts + an increasingly rare DJM 600 that's never met a pint of beerkingsteven
