Im still searching the net for a suitable twin cd player to finally replace my Synergy player which has done me well over the years(So no taking the mick)

So far I have decided I will purchase a Citronic CD:4 mixer.

Now the question is what cd player should I purchase? I will need to find a decent cd player that wont jump under any cirumstances ie. springy floors, or mass jumping (especially at kids parties). the price bracket is around the £250 mark. what sort of spec should I be looking for|Any suggestions??Please help

Anti-shock eg: resistance to "jumping", shouldnt be a problem on all but the very very cheapest of decks... one thing to consider is that a bumped CD-deck can take between 2 and 10 seconds to "recover" internally from a bump, or bounce - so go for the longest possible Anti-shock within budget.

Marky_mark was selling his Numark CDN-22 for a very good price (very good for him as he won it a couple of weeks ago). About £120 I think - so within your budget, if no-ones bitten his hand off for it already.

Hi Gary

Thanks for the info. I was speaking to Marc with regards to his CD player but havent got back to him yet... Sorry Marc, my appolgies.

I did ask Marc if the Numark CDN-22 has anti shock and he said it didnt would this be a problem for this kind of player????

Doh! Indeed the CDN-22mk3 doesnt appear to have anti-shock....I'm shocked.

Their CDN-30 is the first dual CD-deck in the Numark range to offer Anti-shock.

Pricey places are offering the CDN-30 at around £250. Why not ask on this thread for a few of the DJU retailers to give you their best price, on this unit, or a Citronic dual CD-deck, which are comparable (and might colour co-ordinate with your mixer).

Frankie, can you not hold out and save a little more to get something like the excellent Denon DN-D4000 or one of the Pioneer dual players? It will be really worth it in the long run mate.

As much as I would love to Brian, but unfortunatley with my Wedding coming up soooooon cant really afford to stretch that far....

Gemini CD 2000X i use one of these and has never let me down yet

I would personally recommend one of the following:



Numark CDN-35 - Great value, simple features - Only £235

or



Citronic CD4.2 - This is the new version of the classic Citronic CD4, retains all the feature sat a fraction of the cost. - Only £249

Hope that helps

CDN22 may not have anti shock but I dont think you will find your self needing anti shock in most venue's

I should know I still play Vinyl

and yes its still brand new in the box for £120, retailing at about £150 + most places

that would leave you some spare cash for somthing else.......
