Only the mk2's :)
I've heard about the problems with mk3 too. Very strange ones, like a friend of mine played at a club where the 1000mk3's would only play with master tempo enabled, otherwise it couldn't read the cd strangely enough. |

An utter crock of . The 1000mk3 has an adjustale platter. So how can the 800mk2 feel like the platter of the 1000mk3?
|
I stand corrected.
Both the MK2's feel the same though. :p |

I use it, I like my platter ultra light. And that's the setting it stays on.
So anyone who owns the MK3 and has the setting one notch off the default is using it.
So I'd say most people are likely to use it. Law of averages and all that.......... |

If it weren't there, would you miss it? Doubt it.
If you don't scratch, it doesn't matter. Even then, it doesn't matter.
The feel of the platter is still the same as the CDJ-800MK2.

Exactly, everyone has different preferences on how tight they like the wheel. Is it needed? No, but it's a nice addition to have.
The feel of the 800 MK2 platter was very surprizing and feels fantastic! |

Having adjustable platter resistance is ing stupid. the whole point of CDJs is that they are standardized, and all the same.
Most people I know leave it at 0. |

| adjustable resistance is a feature that they can put on marketing stuff, but I can see it being useful to a few people, some scratch dj's preferred the 800mk1 over the 1000mk2 for the lighter platter, some mix dj's hated the light platter of the 800mk1. now both groups can have what they want with the mk3, but most would set it once and never touch it again. |

I normally agree with most stuff you say, but that is total bollocks. |

Well, that'd be great if you could still buy the 800 MK1, but you can't. |

It is though. :p Thats why most guys gave up vinyl, and ty needles, unbalanced tone-arms, used motors, and skipping in favor of CDJs which are exactly the same in every single club in the world. |
