Hi

I'm setting up a mobile DJ business for wedding and corporate functions. Where is a good place to buy equipments like mixer, power amps, speakers and mics? I heard Hung brothers are not bad...any other recommendations?
Thanx

Depends on the brand you plan to get, if its Behringer, its brought in by alot of shops, so you can go around and get the best price. You can check out Swee Lee for the CDJs as well. City Music for Stanton stuff.

How about Yamaha speakers and mixers? Where is the best place/price to get em?

Prices everywhere are about the same. You can go hunting, but you will find it's like that. Only for particular models can go cheap at times, but you have to be fast to catch them at the right time. Unless you get someone inside the company to help you buy, which they will rarely do, unless you are close to them.
Everybody has a ricebowl to catch, some place sells a little cheaper, but really not much lower. And problem is, there is always a catch, something is often missing.
Comparison is sometimes done unfairly, it shouldn't be brand vs brand, it should be the same model vs the same model differing between shops. Everyone knows Behringer is cheaper than Mackie, but that's why Mackie is of higher quality and standard.
Anyhow, Yamaha is having the mid year sale till 23rd July. You can look for me if you need anything. Cheers!!! Calvin

I have a complete DJ set for sale - only used 3 times - interested call me at 97779420 or email mcshaik@yahoo.com It is a Stanton Pro V3 - 2 cd/mp3 players, mixer with onboard effects, mic, Stanton Pro Headphones all goes in one nice case and it comes with a stand. I can recommend you speakers too cuz I have been in the business for 20 years - I know what is good plus I can rent from you.

you may want to go the software direction. I hear traktor scratch duo is good. You may want to go to Resolution to check it out.
