CDJ-800 or DN-S3000?

[Smak]

Looking at buying either a Pioneer CDJ800 or Denon DN-S3000 (or any other in this price range), not really got the opportunity to test both players before I buy so I was wodering what you lot thought?

Will mainly be using as a 3rd deck for loops and playing tracks produced through Reason & Fruity etc...

The Pioneer player is great for loops, as it has a dead handy set of autoloop buttons, you just hit the button for a certain number of beats, and it automatically loops it forever until you turn it off without messing around setting start and finish points...

if you choose pioneer make sure you get the 1000 as the 800 is poorly built and feels really cheap.

i wasnt too impressed with the 1000's build either for the price though

ive got the 800 and its class... if it feels cheap dont worry mate, as it is reliable.

I spilt beer ALL over mine (by mistake) and its still working fine and dandy, take it everywhere with me aswell!
