hello luigi,

what is your cdj?
please precise the brand and the model name (pioneer is not the only brand using cdj name, some other companies use also cdj name as in gemini, dap audio, dj-tech, naphon audio...)

if it crackes, it means the cdj audio output saturates the mk2 audio inputs, so you should attenuate the audio signal, with tools as:
- variable attenuators at the outputs of the cdj player
as koss vc-20 volume control
or sennheiser
or the equivalent in shure

- fixed value volume attenuator,
as a -6db rca volume attenuator on each rca output of the cdj (it is cheap and efficient).
