I will keep these turntables long enough to master every option available, including the digital, i will be searchin for the software to upgrade, and if worse comes to worse, i will be compelled to upgrade to the dns5000 in the near future for the option of still play, meaning the 35 seconds after the disk is taken out, it still keeps it memory, other than that i am satisfied with the dns1000, and feel u as the consumer will be too..If ur a beginner with the cd turntable era, than this is the perfect piece of equipment for you...i love the seamless loop, and the next track option, which blends in the next track you pick, if you set your cue points correctly, the b-trim is like a geenie in a bottle that cuts the sample exactly where you want to loop no matter how many seconds or minutes you need the loop to respond to..yes i would buy this product again if it were stolen or loss....

Sound
I am an aspiring hip hop junkie, and this little dennon 1000 is like a breath of fresh air compare to its counter parts..i record great sound demos and the crisp quality that it produces helps me sell more than when i used the pioneer cj1000...I am using a numark mixer, and a sony vaio to create wave patterns to pro tools...

Features
the only accesories are the rca jacks...i wish it would have sent the digital out jack.

Quality
This product is made very well considering the size of the actual turntable,it read more is a little heavy for its size,very durable and buttons are dependable for tapping simutaneously...

Value
yes!!!! This product is well worth the price, plus you can buy two of these, and still have more left over than buying one of the more expensive products

Manufacturer Support
no problem recieving emails from manufacturer, just dont know if they are human...i would also like to know how to upgrade if there is one, the manual doesn't say it has an upgrade feature..

The Wow Factor
All i can say is never judge a book by its cover!!!lol it looks like a toy compared to the other models but it packs a punch, better than tyson....lol, and the sound quality is crisp and clear, the scratch option is also a plus cause you can program the effect of the scratch, short, long, backspin, reverse,etc... and the platform to scratch on is smooth surface..like a normal cd...

Musical Background:
aspiring producer, club dj

Musical Style:
hip -hop, rnb ,house, reggae, rap
