"In Search of the ULTIMATE DJ CD Suitcase"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Purchaser zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I never expect to need another CD suitcase. I suppose this case ranks with Univenture's DJExpress 400 suitcase. But the Univenture case really does look like something an accountant would have, and I think SKB's deep experience with solid cases translates into this one for DJs. I will post again after I receive this one, and give some detail. And you can be sure if it ever gives me trouble, I will post about that as well.

Features
I've used SKB portable racks for years with zero problems. This case I'm expecting to be the same quality. The extruded corner protection moldings are a great idea. My cheap ($25) Odyssey case fell apart at the corners....

Quality
SKB supplies cases to the US military. Lightweight and heavy duty. The plastic doesn't warp or discolor. Solid as a rock. If it's good enough for US military field operations, it should work in a nightclub pretty well too!

Value
Compared to the Univenture DJ Express 400? Not sure. But I am guessing it's a better unit. You won't beat Univenture for CD sleeves- it's what they are know for. Likewise, SKB is known for rugged lightweight cases. I bought an Odyssey CD suitcase 3 months ago. It was cheap at $25. After heavy usage, it's come apart at the corners- cheap rivets. The SKB is molded, heavy duty plastic- so it won't tear up. It's the BEST value because you'll only buy one.

You can't deal directly with SKB unless you want a customized case- in which case you must order a minimum of 250 units. So, I am pleased SKB has tageted DJs with a customized product.

The Wow Factor
SKB doesn't do flash. It's pro gear for people who can tell the difference between a shiny, cheap facade and heavy duty pro quality. So for the kid who thinks the reflective camo design is da bomb it may not be desirable since it's standard looking. But for the guy who knows quality it will have big appeal.
