Question for DJ's: EV ZLX15p or Mackie SRM 450 V2? Which is overall better?

In my opinion both sounds great but zlx15p comes with a digital equalizer that mackie doesn't got.

I always liked the 450, The 450 is proven to last ....but honestly the EV sounds cleaner. For now I will choose the EV.

I prefer EVs. I think the quality is better and the range of the speakers. I use 2 15 and no sub for my events. My sound goes crazy.

I would recommend EJ16s for acoustic lead, however, if your friend primarily plays electric, he might prefer the extra light EJ15s. Hope this helps.

You are welcome. I think you will really like the 325 (and appreciate how easy it is to set up). Zvox has a 30 day policy where you can try it out, and if you don't like it, they will give your money back and pay for the return shipping. Also note that all Zvox speaker systems comes with a subwoofer output port, so if you are looking to add deeper base in the future you can always buy a subwoofer of your choice and easily hook it up (with one cable).

Definitely better than mixtrack pro 2 Idk about ddj-sb. It's all about preference really.

I looked this up for you and couldn't find many comparisons. I just found this guy's youtube video on headfi. http://www.head-fi.org/t/629433/new-sony-extra-bass-mdr-xb600-mdr-xb800-unboxing-videosEven so, you should try seeing if you can find more comparisons or wait until more come out to have more opinions as the guy in the video may not be 100% reliable (also, they guy said that he didn't burn them in yet). Unfortunately that my take some time.

No. These QSC speakers deliver a much better low end response and the Mackies. I've had some powered Mackie's before, not the ones you are mentioning, but I find the QSC to sound much better. :)

I have both M-L CLS-2Z's and Prodigy's. The voicing on the KEF's and the Prodigy's is very similar given the different technologies involved. The Prodigy's have a more absolute flat response and degree of resolution. The KEF's have better imaging, which is just a matter of physics, and they have a bit of upper end euphonic fluff that makes them seem more present. I love both and I love when someone comes into the listening room and asks which speakers are playing!

Either the XLR or TRS offers a balanced output. This baby is pretty versatile for our small group, so we raraly haul out our bigger mixer board anymore

As others have said, any mixer will work. You might want to look into the controllers that NI makes specifically for this though, such as the S2 and S4. Also, NI just came out with a mixer specifically for Traktor, which looks pretty good as well. Only came out last week I believe.

Ok, Pete W. Here's the low down info. That you're looking for. I bought a Hercules dj control instinct a couple of weeks back, but it was much smaller than it appeared in the original image. I bought it not to be a dj though, the primary reason that I got it for was as a basic remixes to ad some Flava to my production, because it's very limited in features and is very small. In my opinion, if it's djing that you want to do professionally, then spend that extra bucks and get one of the Pioneer ddj series that suits your purpose best and give yourself the best chance of making it. Hope this was helpful! Ok, Pete W. Here's the low down info. That you're looking for.

The simple answer is that the 680E.V3 has an "elliptical" stylus (or, needle). It is supposed to have better sound quality and requires less tracking force but will wear out your records faster. If you are a DJ who mostly mixes and does blends go with the E version. If you use Serato or another DVS then you should be looking at a different cartridge altogether.

I use them as mains any ware it could use the srm450's, and they sound better and can fill the hall better. The 450s were 450wats so even though they have 12" driver the don't put out as much sound, that's why the new srm450v3 have 1000wats and 2 channel control, they were getting blown out of the water by the QSCs.

I can't say for sure which mixer is better but I have had excellent results from the Yamaha MG16XU. It has worked flawlessly and we have even had some gigs where it rained and the board got wet and the table it was on blown over. I just wiped it down, let it dry out, and it is back in business. I think the Yamaha rocks!

yup, i got the 2x version on a 4000watt demon series pa amp. 1 15 rocks better than all of my friends multiples of subs, his setup was 2 12in alpine type r's not sure on the amp but it blows almost all competitionn out of the water. bought it over a year ago still bumps like the first day i got it. loud, reliable, and looks nice too

you won't notice any difference. if DJaying is more than a hobby for you then you wouldn't be resorting to this product. If it is a hobby. This will work perfectly. IF you are playing a big show I would suggest paying the money for an actual interface. I have both and this works great for smaller gigs.

My honest opinion. I like mine ported so I'm more of a SPL guy who loves his music loud. But the details are still there even when you driving at almost distortion levels. You need a good box and amp to begin with.

The pioneer ddj sb is more professional and would recommened it only for intermediate djs although you can use it for getting into it. Theres to many bells and whistles that you don't need when your starting and its at a pretty high price. Now the hercules control instinct is great for getting your feet wet in the dj industry it has all the basic needs like a 3 band eq 4 hot cues( but not meant for juggling
