    I possde a pair of 500S since ending for two years. Before, I had 500.
    If the scratch and effects do not serve in your mix (which is my case) and you are looking for a deck built to last, well look no further and take 500S!

    The finish and quality of manufacture are well above the cdj800/1000 because these plates are only made in Japan vs Malaysia for others.
    Trs are compact, no frills, they swallow all the cd even more rays.
    Everything is extremely prcis (loop, pitch and cue).

    it's really the quality of stuff I recommend.
    If I had to do it again: of course!

    I agree with everyone concernat the cdj 500!
    This is truly good turntables !!!!!!
    They are reliable, sturdy and practical to lug around hyper .....
    The only negative (when we tried the 800 or 1000) is that the pitch can be adjusted from 0.1 to 0.1.
    Apart from that they are top!

    Nothing to say great product made by a pitch a little soft and that rules for the 0.1 to 0.1 (the stuff used is nothing but good is prcis trs)

    I have 2 CDJ 500S for 5 years, combined with a DJM 300.
    No reliability problem is simple, robust and PRO!
    In short I bec the 500S and CD player what the SL 1200 turntable.
    No blah blah, or key indicator of great blinking for nothing.
    Simple and PRO

    It's been four years since I used 2, I had to beginners the cdj 500 I have sold since then I arrter the sound to make me happy when I have friends of FTEs taken the cdj 500s.

    Capacity level the player is top quality but at an oven is:

    my decks are divided in 2 times since it jumped pioneer, is the problem that occurs most on this board. My friend has a store in PA has taken a lot to send to repair.
    I do 4 nights a year (which makes a total of 16 nights) and they have jump again, even see there is one that does not play some cd!

    For how long have you been using it?
    Good question ... it must make 4 or 5 months ...


    What thing do you like most/least about it?
    most: She is tireless
    minimum: a function that would scratch and was perfection for me.

    Did you try many other models before getting this one?
    I already mixed with Numark Axis 9: jog is much more precise on cdj500; I tried cdj 1000 and I found them less "solid"; of denon DNS1000, but I liked the jog on which he had to exert some pressure in order to use it, and finally a USB controller hercules (not to hide it from you I thought it was awesome but once that touches on real plates with one realizes How lame is a USB controller)

    What is your op…

    What is your opinion about the value for the price?
    Well the argus (so used) is 250 € the room. I paid 300 € the pair ...! So from my side is excellent value for money (the only downside is that the key cue was pretty shit so she used a bit ... but I asked a repairman and he said that it was only a small part to change and the cost is less).

    Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
    Yes, without hesitation!
    If there was a scratch function, I put 10/10, but it is not there ... so if I could I put a 9.75 / 10 but I can not so I put a 10/10 <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="biggrin" />
