I bought (used) the one that looks similar to the Pioneer DJM600.
Terribly loose sliders, not very good sound. I sold it on shortly after.
I have a DJX700, which I picked up s/h.... as you say, feels a bit loose in the slider department... sounded "ok", but not practical as wasnt rackmounted (also channel 3 buggered up not long after I bought it).
Have considered the VMX1000 before, but I've heard bad comments about the sound quality. One of the pros is the recessed connectors, so you can actually rack mount something right above it, which is something my mixer doesn'tt

However, I've got a DSP8024 which is still going strong.. and probably 8-9 years old now... (And I've also seen this installed in one theatre with much more expensive audio/lighting equipment!).
Cheers,
