Id have to advise against the 200's as I have got a 400 myself and am very happy with it. If you can get a 800 then go for it, no-one would say otherwise but I find the 200's very frustrating to cue etc without a vinyl emulation, and they feel a little more cheap then the higer models. The 400 I find is great because it feels and responds exactly the same as the 800/1000 (more or less) but the 200 is different and a long step down I think. Im saving for a 2nd hand 800 and I cant wait to finish my rig for good!
