Hi everyone first time posting here so please be patient.I have been a member of this forum for a while but have generally found any questions I wanted to ask had been already answered saving me a lot of time and hassle, but one thing that confuses me is the massive hate / love for certain equipment,let me explain I have had various types and brands of dj and production equipment for about 15 years my current set up is a mixture of top quality and mid quality brands of equipment and it really confuses me where people's approach changes when it comes to dj equipment.For example when ever someone says they are going to buy some cdj2000 nexus's there always a big group that jumps on it saying its a waste of money to buy the best quality gear for use ONLY at home but I bet these people or at least some of them would buy the best brand of other equipment because they could afford it example IPAD, MACBOOK or a top brand tv that does nothing better than a smaller brand so why do they feel that dj equipment is any different? there are many brands of tablet out there but people buy iPads for the brand and quality even though we all know that iPad does nothing different to all the tablets available and yes I'm typing this post on an iPad . So I guess this is my first question on the forum do people really think that some cdj2000's are a waste of money for home or is it down to price vs functions or is it jealousy that someone can afford to buy these pieces of equipment because they possibly have worked many hours extra to save for the top equipment that they trust and has been proven over and over again to be reliable and after all we have all at some point brought the slightly cheaper version of something only for it to break and have to be replaced with another or even what you were going to buy in the first place.
Just my opinion and would love to here others reasons / opinions for selecting different brands and quality of equipment
