DJ CD Player recommendations

[GROOVE VICTIM]

What would you guys recommend out of these High and Low end players?

Or should I wait until the new Technics CD Player comes out and all the drool from my mouth dries up?

I believe most peeps would steer you towards the cdj-100/800/100mk2 more than any other. If nothing else, Pioneer has been doing it the longest and I wouldn't be surprised if Technics has to spend some time working the kinks out of their new toy.

I saw the CDJ 100 for $299 and the CDJ 800 for $599.

The CDJ 1000 was around 800.

For turntable immulation, go with the DN5000. Beyond your wildest expectations.

For a great duall deck with hot and easy to learn/use edit/loop features, go with the Pioneer CMX-3000. I have it and I absolutely love it.

(so why don't you marry it??)

Well, maybe I will...

I'd go for the Denon DN-S3000...

http://www.djmart.com/dednmptu.html

My main thing is that they're actively producing software/firmware updates for this thing (as well as the more-expensive S5000). I think it's well-supported, and would be a better long-term choice amongst the models you listed.

Maybe I'm weird, but the Technics deck doesn't impress me that much. I'll go over to Audiolines this weekend to see.... I think they have it listed for $999

wow the techs look nice as hell! I have a friend who uses the top of the line american DJs and they are very good i picked one up and shook the hell out of it while it was playing and it didnt skip a beat. And not like the pioneers it wont eat your cds. they are about 600.00 for the pair and have a great pitch control. very good product.

Marriage is out of the question though... smile.gif

The Denon S3000 is looking very tempting. Firmware upgrades, SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll wait until the spring to a Player. Right now I'm also debating on whether I should get a Rane 2016, 2005, 1982 or whatever the hell you call it with the XP EQs or something cheaper.

I will never purchase a mixer from Numark again. I've been beneath hell and back with my DM1260X.

I've been waiting to get some feedback on those. I haven't had a chance to get to the local GC and play around but I couldn't find too much info on the net either.

I will say some people have said they don't like having to page through certain functions.
