Denion its the way the industrys moveing, though i personaly think the pioneer looks cooler

I agree with that. the CDJ1000 is getting somewhat old-fashion.

Try them both out and pick which one you like.... Don't let us decide for you... Because all we'll do is argue about how much one is better than the other....

How are our hands gonna tell you whats good for yours. Everyone has their own taste and their own likes/dislikes. You should try them out for yourself, and get whichever you are more comfortable with.

go with whatever's cheaper.
You really can't go wrong - even clubs are like nearly 50/50 in using these decks.

I am actually getting the Pioneer one myself. It looks cooler, does what I need it to do, and is actually more precise in terms of pitch change. The Denon player smallest % change is .05%, Pioneers player changes at .02%.

yo i went with the denon s5k and i absolutly love it.....

they are constantly releasing updates for it so thats cool and it has waaaaayyyy more features than the cdj1000....

another thing i like is the looks....all the buttons look way cooler than the buttons on the pioneer and u can print and make custom slipmat logos for the spinning platter....oh sooo cool...

heres a pic of mine....

Let me just say....if i could have ttx's and denon s5ks in the same picture...well, quite frankly my imagination doesn't go that far.

Wow. Nice setup.

it does. And that is my primary concern. Half those features on the Denon I will never ever use. Pioneers all the way.
