    People thinking a bit too hard about all of this. Go to store and demo the two mixers. Find the one you prefer and pull the trigger. Pioneer and Allen and Heath are both popular in clubs. Generally Allen and Heath are popular in the serious Techno/House clubs and festivals and Pioneer dominate everywhere else.

    Likewise, I had a Pio 500 and 600 but went with the Denon DNX1600, the Traktor certified soundcard was what originally got me interested. A quick play at my local store and I was won over.

    Before I could afford to choose between Denon/A&H/Pio, I went with a Behringer DDM4K and was extremely happy. (£270 happy???)

    iMHO, I think Denon sounds better than a pioneer but not as well accepted. I love the matrix input selector.

    No doubt - that IS a cool feature.

    Pioneer > A&H. I never liked A&H to be honest. Pioneer have (almost) always made better and DJ friendly layout and very sturdy as well. The DJM-900 nexus is the best mixer at the moment. Even much better than the DJM-2000.

    At the end of the day it's all just personal opinion.

    Some like Pioneer, some like A&H, all for different reasons, and that is why there is choice on the market, and always will be.
