    the pioneer cdj400 should have been more like this, with dual outputs for 2 decks in 1

    you right about dual outputs, but it looks nowhere near as sexy as a 400

    the spinning platter can be turned off, just like on the 5000/3000, then it works like a pioneer would :up:

    I've got a thing for the denon gear - lots of really good features on them, just a shame that some of the bits aren't as intuitive as some of the pioneer gear

    I've got a DNS5000 and I'm looking to get another one :up:

    I wasn't a fan of the 800 series denon mixer I had, but I'm not a fan of the pioneers mixers either, vestax or A&H all the way :up:

    I did a gig a while ago on a pair of Denons (complete with spinning platter) and it was a nightmare, those squidgy buttons just aint cricket

    They take a little getting used to, but my first set of CD decks had squidgy buttons so I've never had a problem with them.
