So what do u guys think about that Denon cd player compared to the CDJ-800. I just saw that the DN-S1000 is around 400$ and has a whole bunch of functions and incorporated FX plus the ability to play MP3. It doesnt have the rotating jog wheel as the DN-S5000 but still looks pretty cool. I was wondering what would you guys rather buy considering the prices, functions, maybe quality , specs, etc. Doesnt look that bad at all, so far it kinda looks better than the CDJ-800 and its cheaper. Opinions ? :wink:

I say if you're not going to do turntable tricks, then the CDX-3000 is your best bet. Going to be getting mine real soon. Two cd players for the price of one cdj-800. :D

I have tried the denon, technics and the pioneers... just like for vinyl nothing compares to technics 1200's.. none of the rest even come close to the cdj1000's

denon were shite IMO...and less expensive for a reason ;)

Jeff.. who makes the cdx3000?

Re: Denon DN-S1000 vs. Pioneer CDJ-800

what about just between those 2 though ? If had the money , i will def. buy the CDJ-1000 no questions asked. But between those 2 ? , maybe someone has used both of them before and could tell. :roll:

PIONEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :RockOn:

final answer ? 8)

just my opinion mate. as i said technics ar the mutts nuts in turntables, but the digital one is shite. Pioneer seems to have the best digi decks around bar none. even tho the 800's lack some of the 1000 bits and bobs, still are very nice. and these other digital turntables with all the bells and whistles, just dont add up.. IMO... ;)

I c. Just looks like that denon cd player is not that bad really and for some reason comes with a little more stuff than the CDJ-800 (just the cdj-800 though). The best thing of all of course, they are cheaper. Dont really like the jog wheel design compared to the CDJ-800 one. :D

ebay might have some good deals also.

or musicians friend.. they have a web site

nice, thanxx for the tip there.

pioneer of :Bingo: course

I am also thinking about getting the new denon 1000. Guitar center actually hade one. They are pretty sweet. Kinda complicated to use though b/c there so small. But that goes with getting new decks though. Right now I have the stanton cd decks and they are shit. Just got them to start out with, now it is time to get soemthing better. I link the pioneer 100's also. Pionneer 100 have less effects but definetly easier to use. Tough choice either. Just try them for ur self and make the decision then.

Re: Denon DN-S1000 vs. Pioneer CDJ-800

i rather Pioneer, by far the best nothing compare to'em

Save up some money for the cdj1000, I have one and my mate has a cdj800, we do a monthly gig togeter so we bring both players along, so I get to test them up against each other quite often. Tighter wheel on the 1000 and mem car, hot cues, wav display.

But this isnt what you asked for, I know, but consider it ;-)

A dude i know ordered a 1000mk2 a couple of months back and got sent 2 by accident, lucky fucker :HolyShit:

^^^ no way.. that is awesome.. thats some good karma there. or.. is it bad karma for him not owning up and sending them back? :?

I reckon the CDJ800 are much better than the denon ones. But that's only an opinion!

The problem with the Pioneer 100s is that the pitch control only gues to the tenths place, while on the better models (definitely on the 1000, I'm not sure about the 800) they go to the hundreths place. You'll be riding the pitch an awful lot with the 100s. That said, they are inexpensive and pioneer quality.

Re: Denon DN-S1000 vs. Pioneer CDJ-800

the CMX-3000 is the rackmounted dual cd player by PIONEER!

Here it is on MF.

it's also the kind of cd player that is in quite a bit of clubs. As that was what people were using before the cdj-1000 came around. But because everyone was talking about the scratching with the cdj people forgot about the cmx-3000. But it too can scratch. But I don't so I won't need it.
