Although Technics is a stellar brand for some products, the technics cdj turntable has had immense problems to the point where Technics has discontinued making cd turntables. I was very excited before they came out, but it wasn't long before the word spread about the quality of it.
The leading professional standard in CDJ technology is PIONEER. The Pioneer 800 and 1000 are both solid powerful units that are durable, and preferred by the professionals. A few years ago, I wasted my money on some NUMARK AXIS 9s which turned out to be thoroughly junky. Locally, we annually host some large events where we have had the pleasure of bookings some of the world's greatest entertainers (ie: Simon Posford, and other's from twisted records, and other DJs from all over Europe) and we would only use the Pioneer 1000s for these events.
The best advice is to not take anyone's word for it, and RESEARCH THE PRODUCT BEFORE YOU SPEND THE MONEY! Read opinions online, watch opinions on youtube, and just look around. E-mail DJs and record labels and ask what they think is good.
The Pioneer 800s start at $800 new
The 1000s are around $1050
Also available are the 200s which are basic but solid.(about $260)
Keep in mind that Pioneer is now substantially the largest manufacturer of CDJs.To all music lovers and dj's out there.im thinking of buying some new turntables(first time buyer).need advice
