Pioneer CDJ1000 MKII vs DENON DNS 5000 vs Stanton C.304

I've used the Denon DNS 5000, 1000. I am currently using Pioneer CDJ 1000 MKII, but have never even seen a Stanton C.304. Has anyone ever used them? How do they compare to the other two I've listed in here? Also are they even available in the North American Continent?

thanks

I looks like a combination of a CDJ and a Mac-Mini

they look cool, but you can't just buy something just b/c it looks good.

Jewelry?

Nah I've never touched them, so I can't comment on how they work...

its a brand new model, i just got them in stock about a week ago at my store, complete shite next to a denon or pioneer. not bad for the price, but its not even close the the quality of a cdj1000 on dns5000. personally, i like the denons the best.

why would you even want one, if you have a cdj1000

anytime, and to answer your other question, i work at guitar center in the states so they are definitly available here (and im sure in Canada too). but i wouldnt recomend getting one. stick with the pioneers, if you want a change, the only other CDJ to look at is the DNS5000.

no doubt on the cdj 1000 MKII, the thing is they are not mine. the place where i work on the weekend rents them for me on both days. therefore I don't own them (due to lack of such high funds). yes they are incredible, durable and perfomance wise best i've touched yet. (as far as cd players go).
as far as the denon 5000 go, i have only played with them for about 2 hours in one night. they are way better than any other denon dns cd players. they can be compared with the top of the line pioneer plus they have a lot of functions on the (and they are cheaper).
reason why i asked about the stanton is that they looked interesting and are cheaper.

and headphones i'm using the pioneer se-dj 5000. great headphones, more durable than any sony ones (give them a try see if you like them).
