I'm looking for a single CD player to put out with a pair of 1210s.
Some of my DJs are requesting to play a few CDs with their Vinyl sets.
What do you folks recommend?
Nothing fancy just needs to be cheap, smaller the better and able to play ripped CDs.
Ta!

CDJ 800 Mk2 are the cheapest industry standard players right now

Recently got 2 for £160 each. Keep them serviced and they will last forever

Denon is probably the only other option if you're looking at table-top CD players.

Personally for me the CDJ-400 is more useful than the 800 as it is both smaller & takes USB and can be found for around the same money.

Ive actually got a Stanton CMP.800 (also sold as Citronic MPCD-X3 and maybe a few others) and its not that bad. I did have it fail at 1 gig only to work totally fine when I got it home and ever since. Everything lit up and looked like it was working but it wasn't recognising any of the button presses. One of the things I like about my stanton is that it has 2 USB slots which I find to be great.

Honestly getting CDJ which doesnt do USB is a waste of time. USB is the way forward, it just makes life so easy

I picked up, and use, a Denon DNS1200 for £90 a few months ago. It plays CD's (purchased, ripped and MP3 if you got the latest firmware update) and has a USB socket too. I'm just waiting for another to come along now.
