i've got the CDX's got em used. had em for a few weeks now. and they work perfectly. the effects work great. and the vinyl feel is amazing. i havent messed around with setting up any cue points in the 3000 cue memory bank. but for turntablists and scratch Dj's there is no better CD alternative

they are kick ass. I have a pair of Stanton C304's that are pretty good too. similar features as CDJ-1000 only with a better platter IMHO being a scratch dj.
there is nothing else that i've tried out that can come close to the CDX in terms of vinyl feel. the Technics is kinda close but the unit and platter is still small. |
