CD player question
View this Thread in Original format

I'm considering getting a CD player (or 2) sometime in the near future (later this year, possibly, it depends on some stuff really)... I've already got decks, but it would be nice to be able to play some tracks, downloaded from, say, Beatport for example, or if my production skills ever get good enough to play stuff out I could stick it on cd :P

I looked at this: Gemini CDJ 01

http://www.decks.co.uk/products/cdplayers/gemini/cdj01

Pretty basic model really, but it's a bit more realistic for what I could save up towards. 2 of them for £225 really seems not bad.

So does anyone know if they're actually any good, or just entry level crap? I know entry level decks are , belt drive or weak direct drive or whatever, but are CD players the same or should I just save more money and get decent ones? My decks and mixer are Gemini and have served me well for a few years so I trust the name for good value, but I'm just not sure when it comes to CD players.

I say save a bit more money and go with a better brand. Pioneer or Denon. I think you can get the Pioneer CDJ 200's in the same range as the ones you've posted. Also those cdj 200's do play mp3's + audio.
