What is the best cdj?

Depending what you're looking for, Pioneer is renowned for making the best digital turntables out there and are very popular in the club scene. The CDJ-2000 is the best and most expensive turntable for around $2200 new, $1800 used. It comes fully featured with a LCD colour screen, hot cues and loops, full jog wheel control and tempo control, as well as the ability to work with Pioneer Rekordbox software. The CDJ-900 (produced the same year as the CDJ-2000) is not as fashionable, however it is an extremely good player for its price at $1300 new, $1000 used. It links into the Rekordbox software so you can load all your tracks on the go VIA USB stick or through a LAN computer to the computer. Instead of hot loops/cues, its instant loops that range from 1/16 to 8/1 beats. It has "Slip Mode" which is designed so that when enabled the song can be tampered with loops, scratches and flips of the reverse without having to beat-match again to the second track. All-in-all the best CDJ is the 2000, however the best for budget is the 900. It's your pick.
