Apparently you can get it in black, but it costs extra?!?!?

i find it a bit dissapointing that the guy demoing it in the you tube clip is redlining it - numpty

imagine the damage through a rig

[Paulie_p]

im shure some better vids will come out soon! Think i'd still spend the extra on the 800 tho!

[Reece Duncan]

I think its pointless tbh, anyone who can afford a 700 can most likely afford the 800 or be able to get the money together, nice to have the option, but id go for the 800

me too dude

[tOM]

from what i hear you're best off with an old 500 or 600 in terms of sound quality

[Paulie_p]

wtf? you must be kidding!

[tOM]

like i say from what i hear sound and build quality aren't as good on the newer pioneers

all pioneer's get slated quite often when compared to a & h and ecler, i've never had a problem with my 500 suits me for what i do. I guess we're talking the kind of sound quality differences that only really register on a big good quality rig (i.e. opus or f1)

also what sounds good with cd decks isn't always great with vinyl - you know what i mean? I think it's easier to make cd decks sound good as long as what you play is well produced

[Paulie_p]

mate, pioneer arnt one of the industry leaders because every time they make a new mixer it sounds worse than the previous model!!! Digital sampling, is now well out of the range of what the ear can here, so vinyl still sounds great.

No but it's because for years they were the industry standard, same as technics - this is starting to change a bit now though, you start to come accross more a & h's and eclers on various different set ups

I'm not saying they're not good - i wouldn't swop my djm500 for any other mixer i love it to bits but they're certainly not the best mixers out there in terms of build and sound quality any more - imo ecler have to take that crown at the moment

[Paulie_p]

id say since the 800 has come out, its taken back the crown

[tOM]

we'll have to agree to disagree on that one

[Paulie_p]

haha yeah, we never agree do we!!

[Roondogg]

o is this 700 just new then,never heard anything about it

[Reece Duncan]

Yeah, was only unveiled 3 or 4 weeks ago
