I'm curious as to the pitch accuracy debate between the CDJ200 and S1000.

CDJ200 0.02% @ 6% range
DNS1000: 0.1% on all ranges (even on +/-4???)

Does this actually make any difference at all in practice?

Some people say they can tell the difference, but that reminds me of a load of bollocks.

Either way they're both shite. You'll never see either in a club.

seriously now, it was just on the second page

0.1% is absolutely fine to play on, but the difference is quite big(!). I've never heard of a DJ (non-rookie) that can't feel the difference.
I prefer to play with 0.02 on my CDJ-1000s, but most often I play with 0.1 just to get used to it. It's not uncommon to run into 800s at partys

800's are usually set at .05

but yeah i agree, you can manage with .1.

Welp, I own a pair of s1000. One of my friends has CDJ200, so I had played quite a bit on both decks. To be honest with you, I like CDJ200 much better than my denon decks. The main reason is durability. The platters on Denons feel shitty and I'm really sick of these rubber buttons. Not to mention the fact that the play button on one of my decks doesn't work very well. Do yourself a favor and get Pioneer. Both decks cost practically the same.

yeah the platter does suck, it's just a piece of plastic in the shape of a CD. you will never use it for scratching as the scratch function is shit. it's more for fun than anything. the rubber buttons don't feel as nice as the pio either.

i'd say do yourself an even better favor and save up for a pair of used cdj800's.

thx for the input guys (I realized this was a repost as well as after I mentioned it, just didnt know it posted again so recent), gonna prolly go with the 200's and one day the 800's

id be happy to play on the cheapest american audio tabletop cd player. A lot of people spend months deciding between products and they're missing out on the mixing fun.
