Default Basic Requirements

I am new to DJing with some basic knowledge. I want to buy a system for
practicing at home.

Frankly I don’t want to spend too much, but I don’t want to buy the outdated one.

What are the basic requirements for a small system, is it necessary to buy
Speakers, S. Woofer and Amplifier. Can I use my desktop speakers which
are 2.1 channel with amplifier and woofer?

I checked in the market of Pioneer one I saw CDJ 200 / 400 / 800 / 1000 and
Mixers DJM 400 / 700.

But I am not sure which one I should go for.

Default Equipment

Hi, I'm pretty new to the scene but my advice is that if your real serious get the best kit you can afford otherwise get cheaper alternatives and see how it goes, you can always upgrade. The one good thing about buying good kit from the start is that if you buy secondhand it doesn't lose a lot of money if you decide to sell it.
