XDJ-700 Syncing not in sync

Hi guys,

Since I bought myself a pair of these XDJ-700's I am struggling with the SYNC options. Somehow I just cannot get it to work properly.

I have ran all files through Rekordbox, onto a USB stick and am playing from that.

Have linked the decks via network cable as instructed by the manual.

Say I play Deck 1 at 120 BPM and hit the MASTER button for Syncing.

Then I select a different track on Deck 2 of say 122 BPM, which by Sync-linking will be played at 120 BPM just as the MASTER deck is doing.

This should work as the 2 BPM per minute difference is not that big and SYNC is on at both players. Still it will not sync correctly and often I find that the beats stay behind so you get a double beat.

Not what you'd want obviously. 

I also tested with the same track on both players, which should be in 100% perfect sync, still nope...it's not.

I recently was at a disco club where they had the CDJ2000 Nexus, these puppies DO play perfect sync, with the same USB stick, so I really wonder....is it a lack of quality between these two players ? Are the CDJ2000 better equipped to handle syncing ?

Have I bought the wrong players ?
( not all of us can just dish out 4000 Euro for a set )
