Is the CDJ-900 Worth the dough

Even more disconcerting were the replies made by the CDJ reps... They seemed a little arrogant in their retort, saying that these guys shouldn’t be relying on BPM for beat matching and real DJs use their ears.

I would go fucking Genghis Khan on those assholes if they said that to me. Who gives a shit what you think I should be doing or using, I paid a premium price, now deliver a premium product.

That would be like me buying a new car, the air conditioning is barely putting out cold air, and the salesperson telling me "you shouldn't be using it anyway, it lowers your gas milage."

Bottom line for those Pioneer "Customer Support" types - mind your own fucking business, fix my shit and shut up. It's your job.

On that note, I don't use the BPM read out, but I did notice that the 1000MK3 were way more accurate when I paid attention to it.

I will buy a steak dinner to anyone who can reliably (ie greater the 60/70%) spot the difference between the audio interface on the CDJXXX and any other high ends system.

actually i can, very very easily, i can do it with any track (provided a good monitor speakers are used)

i use audio4dj + TSP and cdj 900s, when i tried using the 900s by itself without traktor and i instantly hear the difference - audio4dj sound is much much much better
