Originally posted by lenazi thanks for proving my point for me. why would you keep needing to buy more if they didn't break? pioneers break too, but are not as bad. I speak from knowing many that cheaped out on denon only for it to cost more in the long run.

gear junkie syndrome?

Ive bought a few denon cd decks over the years, I get bored, then buy something new. Even happened with pioneer. Throughout all my time of buying denon gear, I've never once had an issue.

Aside from this, for the cost of what a new 900/2000 would go for...i'd get a denon deck, same features for the most part. Now only if denon could stop making cd decks with spinning platters with the ability to scratch.

he said he had no problems with any of them though so he didnt actually prove your point at all. more the opposite. when it comes to pioneer, ive had cdj100, cdj500, cdj500mk2, cdj800 and have played abit on cdj1000. all of those have had problems with the platter. when looking at a pair of one model, never once have i found the platter to act the same on both after a few years of usage. denon have problems to, in general the cue-buttons wear out so their not perfect at all after time those either. im getting the HD2500 anyway though.

Originally posted by Clovis Probably none that you care about but every single name touring Europe is, most DJ who I consider to be of some value. The holdouts still only playing vinyl/cd are becoming more rare. I'm not talking about the DJ list.

LOL nice one, grouping me with other trance djs thinking I don't listen to anything else. Nice generalization (untrue btw).

Traktor and Serato are still the future and not the present. There are very few big name djs in ANY genre that have accepted it at this point.

I still don't see any names btw!

i'm not even going by who i like but these are pretty big names using dvs.

digweed
cox
loco dice
fanciulli
josh wink
Chris Liebing
nick warren
carl craig
magda
lawler
luciano


there are tons more but i won't bother listing them. These guys all play huge festivals on a regular basis.

as far as denon, you won't convince me that they are anything but an inferior product. I use pitch sliders so the platter thing is moot, but i stand by my view.

Please please stop talking a load of shit.

DVS has been in the fast lane a long long time now and is huge NOW.. I've been to two festivals in the last 3 weeks and trust me from lawler in the afternoon, through to hawtin and dubfire in the late afternoon through to Sasha and Digweed and Darren Emerson (had a Fader fox on him as well) They're all using DVS systems. (Sasha would probably have ableton running as well I don't know I don't care)

I do know there's a bang of bullshit coming off you.

Perhaps those guys are using DVS's NOW.

BUT... they all all big enough names to get whatever they want based on their riders. I'm sure most of those guys are using DVS's because burning and sorting CD's is a total bitch. The current CDJ's also SUCK at cue and loop management (can't sync the cards, etc.).

These new CDJ-2000's will likely make some of these guys rethink Serato and TSP. Plus, how many of them will be doing sponsorship deals....

As a local DJ myself, I'd SO leave my laptop and home and bring some USB sticks if I knew a venue had these decks. Setting up and tearing down a DVS isn't horribly hard, but at 6am I don't want to be doing it.

Haaaater in the house! That'd be you

While there are djs who use dvs consistently Clovis said "basically all touring djs in europe". That statement is what I was calling out because it's 100% false.

On it's face yes, it is false, it's probably more like half of ALL touring DJs in europe in every genre.

As far as the dance music scene I am concerned with, the majority of DJs have gone that route.
