Speaker/Gear Recommendation

Hey guys, new here.

I’m a college kid who has loved EDM and DnB and that sort of music for the past 3 or 4 years and I really want to get into DJ’ing. I’ve been fooling around with the stuff I already have, but really want to make it more than just a side hobby and maybe get some gigs or something of that sort. Since I’m in a college town, getting gigs for friend’s parties and moving up won’t be too hard once I have the right stuff. I’m working this summer and since I’ll be raking in the dough, I’m wondering what I’ll need to hit it big.

What I’ve got so far:

Traktor Pro 2
Kontrol X1

I’m thinking about getting the S2, but I’m really not sure about that still.
I need some suggestions on what I should start off buying, controller and speaker wise.

Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated!

S2 would probably be very beneficial to your setup.

Also headphones?

Speakerwise, there are heaps of threads in here about good cheap speakers, but i suggest getting 2 powered (or passive if you want an amp as well) and then a sub or 2 as well as some lights.

Right now I’m using these

I know they are gaming headphones, but they are really not to shabby for the price. If you have something to recommend, I’m all ears.
I really do like Traktor and the S2 would be great, but it is kinda costly. I’ve been recommended the Numark Mixtrack Pro before, which route do you think I should go?
