I’ve heard from many Pioneer reps that you shouldn’t remove the mini-xlr cable for the hdj-2000 unless you need to replace it for wear and tear reasons. Then why the hell is the new official hard case ($40) designed so that you have to take out the cable everytime?
i neved had a problem with my mini xlr… i plug it in and out after every gig… my current set have lasted 2 years now… had to change the Jack though… to a proper neutrik jack…
