DJ Gifts Under $100: What to Buy
What is a good DJ gift under $100?
Something they use at every gig that does not depend on their exact setup: a padded gear bag, a laptop stand, gaffer tape, contact cleaner, a mirror ball, or a Hollywood DJ gift card. If you know their gear, Serato control vinyl, a replacement stylus or a case made for their controller is a more personal gift, but check the model name first, because those only fit one setup.

Are there good DJ headphones under $100?
Yes. The Hercules HDP DJ45 are closed-back over-ear headphones with 50 mm drivers, swiveling earcups for one-ear cueing, a coiled cable that stretches from 1 to 2 m, and a folding design. The Reloop RHP-10 Mono is a one-ear DJ headphone with a 50 mm driver and a coiled cable, for DJs who cue with one ear and keep the other on the room. One step up, the Pioneer DJ HDJ-X5 is in our DJ gift ideas.
What can I get a vinyl DJ for under $100?
Record storage and cleaning gear work for any turntable setup. The Glorious Record Box stores 110 12-inch records, the Gruv Glide kit cleans records, and Reloop stylus cleaner cleans the needle. Serato control vinyl is only for DJs who play Serato DJ on turntables, and a replacement stylus only fits the cartridge it was made for, so check theirs before you buy.
What can I get a DJ who makes beats for under $100?
A Teenage Engineering Pocket Operator. Each one is a pocket-size synth or drum machine with a built-in speaker and a 16-step sequencer that runs on two AAA batteries. The PO-12 rhythm is a drum machine with 16 drum sounds, and the PO-33 K.O! is a sampler with a built-in microphone. Add a CA-X silicone case to protect it. If they already own an EP-133 K.O. II, a Magma EP-133 case or Decksaver EP-133 cover fits it exactly.
What can I get a party or mobile DJ for under $100?
Effects and gig tools. The Eliminator Micro Galaxian Three projects 200+ red and green laser beams in auto, sound-active or remote mode. The ColorKey Odin FX is a derby effect with two 20W RGBW LEDs. A 12-inch or 8-inch mirror ball needs a motor and a pin spot for the classic effect. For MCing, the Gemini GMU-M100 is a UHF wireless handheld mic with a plug-in receiver and a range of up to 164 feet, and the Shure PGA58 is a wired cardioid vocal mic with an on/off switch.
What are good DJ stocking stuffers?
Things DJs use up or lose: gaffer tape, DeoxIT contact cleaner, DeoxIT FaderLube, stylus cleaner and spare USB and audio cables. See them all in DJ Stocking Stuffers.
