Pioneer DJ DJM-S7 vs DJM-S11 - Which Is The Best Battle Mixer?

[@jojorilu]

One mayor difference that you missed out is that the channel faders on the S7 are cheaper and molded onto the chip, making it more complicated to repair/change. Whiles the S11 have the same magvel faders that are exchangeable just like the crossfader

[@digitaldjtips]

Thanks for the additional point Rinaldo :)

[@gaffle-411]

That’s an absolutely H U G E point to make. No S7 for me…

[@ambesa1]

wish i read this comment right here before buying the s7, cuz my channel fader broke after 9 months. smh. when i went to do a self-repair, i was devasted that the faders are soldered to the board. straight junk

[@jojorilu]

@@ambesa1 sorry to hear that, did u manage to solve it?

[@SoHyped97]

Oh my. Just took mine apart and wow it was an absolute pain

[@gwsound]

What is the sound quality difference when playing vinyl?

[@DjDestinyChicago]

My S7 it out for delivery! 👍👍

[@digitaldjtips]

Good choice!

[@DjDestinyChicago]

@@digitaldjtips just opened the box. This thing is huge compared to the S3 I’ve been using for the past 5 years 👍

[@VKTRD]

Hi, great review. How about sound quality, especially phono preamps and sound of classic vinyl? And it is same as S11? Thanks.

[@digitaldjtips]

My man TLM did a comparison of the S7 with the classic S9 phono preamps: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIK6an6hp8uMjLc

[@semyonboyk0]

Thanks a lot for the comparison, exactly what I was looking for

[@digitaldjtips]

Awesome, glad it was useful!

[@jerrychisholm8565]

Thanks for the tip , I went with the s7

[@digitaldjtips]

Glad to help Jerry.

[@АнтонПоле-ж6м]

hi, please tell me how good and durable the channel faders are in s11, I heard that for example in s7 they are not reliable and can fail, I wonder if in s 11 they are the same as in s 7 or a class higher and is it difficult to change them if they break ? Thank you

[@digitaldjtips]

We’ve had no problem with any of them

[@djxcel23]

As long as i can echo out on the s7 ill buy it

[@digitaldjtips]

👌

[@korospds]

But still which one is the best

[@DJVarMar]

Thank you.

[@digitaldjtips]

No problem!

[@lloydacres6153]

Can I use the s11 as a stand alone regularly

[@lustforlow-end6022]

One thing I’ve wondered about Pioneers headphone cueing system on their battle mixers... do you need both a crossfader & a mixing knob? Surely they both do the same thing?

[@digitaldjtips]

The mixing knob is for deciding what you want to hear in your headphones, not for actually mixing (unless you're talking about something else?)

[@lustforlow-end6022]

No that’s what I meant. I just thought they would both cue between both channels so you wouldn’t need the two of them since they both do the same thing!

[@lagossurfexperience]

@digital dj tips can you see the screen on the 11 in the sun ?

[@digitaldjtips]

As well as any - no screen is ideal in the sun though.

[@lagossurfexperience]

@@digitaldjtips yeah I get a bunch of sunset shows whereby sometimes the brightness is hard to kill. I can invert my laptop screen but I wonder if going for the S7 works better in these situations. Which brings me to another question about vinyl 45s - is it right the 7 has better PHONO pre amps ? Or are they the same ?

[@ambesa1]

@@lagossurfexperience do not get the s7, the channels faders are soldered to the pcb board making it difficult to do a self repair. my channel fader broke after 9 months of owning it. bought new.smh

[@ChristianFusillero]

Audio quality is also comparable in those two mixers

[@jojorilu]

Yupp but both are still way better than the S9 in sound quality

[@digitaldjtips]

True

[@yayabadyayanou]

NOTHING with major DIFFERENT except the pricz
