    Denon HS-5500

    Anyone got one of these?

    I just bought one yesterday and its well good!!! No more need for two decks .... you can dj a full set from a single unit

    You can put a HD inside it, as well as connect usb sticks and ipod's to it. Ive got an 8gb stick in the back with some tunes on it and it works perfectly.

    Getting used to not having two 'decks' is quite interesting, but the denon is making it feel really comfortable, for once.

    Apparently it works as a full midi controller and has an integrated soundcard inside, so it could be used with traktor/ableton ..... :love:

    I'm considering getting one.

    I've already got a DNS5000 and given the price they go for on ebay at the moment I'm considering picking up another on the cheap, then one of these :)

    it looks well good like!

    Its pretty stunning like!

    Ive only managed to accidentally turn off the live deck the one time, so, so far so good.

    Really love denon kit, and this one is a piece of cake to use - even moreso than the dn-s5000 which i was totally gutted to have to get rid of.
