    give us more info so we can help you with pros and cons bro!

    example,
    Do you play with CDs mainly or do u use USB? or do you play with software?

    I would personally go with the other 1000 player cus it would look better.
    but thats me.

    i play mainly cd's.
    hate on the 850 u cant see the wave forms but it is perfect condition.
    like being able to see the wave forms on the 1000mk2 but it is only in ok condition and i want something thats going to last.

    sell the 1000 mk 2

    its old already and the cd lens probably would die out soon - the 850s can always use rekordbox and its more future proof IMO
    Setup:

    Traktor Pro 2 / S2 MK2 / X1 MK2 / Audio6 / Pioneer HDJ2000 / Westone UM3X / rMBP 13 inch 2014 (2.8 GHz) / Focal Alpha 50

    Yeah well, id suggest you get 2x cdj 850 if smth..

    I changed from 1000mk3s to 850's and it was really a trade-up.
    If u want good waveforms from cds then you should save your loaded data from sd card on the 1000 and load it into rekordbox!

    Hell I probably will get killed for saying this but I even like the jogs on the 850 more than the 1000

    I just sold my 1000MKIII's before they decreased in value, next Im thinking of the 900's, but in your case, I would keep the 850.
