when i dj out i like to drop my own tunes (obviously) i used to use a
Gemini CDJ-20 which was pretty small but is there anything any smaller
around? I'm fed up of seeing all these size-of-a-car cd players that
let me emulate vinyl effects - ive already got 2 decks next to me i
just want something small i can plug into anyones system, use some
samples, play some tunes then leave without having to build a new dj
booth to fit it in.. any suggestions?

To be fair, I have no experience of the '20 you speak of, but your
question is a bit confusing to me. Surely the Numark Axis 9 and the
Pioneer smaller machines fit the bill? As far as I am aware the Gemini
'20 is still widely available (I cannot swear it is still in
production). Perhaps some dealer is giving you a hard sell and not
telling you the whole truth?

The Gemini CDJ-15 and 20 are about as small as a single CD player gets, unless
you get a portable Walkman type player.

Other companies sell similar products as the Gemini (American Audio, Stanton,
Numark, etc.), but I believe they're all about the same size as the Gemini, if
not larger.

Thanks people, i just wondered incase anyone had seen anything new &
dinky

I think ill buy another CDJ-20 (my last one died after a few field
parties)

Do you know if the cheaper CDJ15 has as good instant start (its worth
money saving as i dont really use cues etc and i think thats the only
difference between 15 & 20 - i cut my cd music to good cues on the
compy before burning it)

I think the main difference is that the CDJ-20 has anti-shock memory.
