"I will definitely be a return customer! Great prices and easy to use. Product came very quickly, and communication was excellent." - customer on August 18, 2010
I must say that when I went out looking for a quality cd player one of the last names I thought about (other the Gemini and American DJ) was Numark.. Just like the other Numark has made a name for itself as being cheap quality with features.. It wasnt something I was willing to buy. So I looked into the Denin 2600F and the 2100F (both cheaper then the Numark CD 88 here in sweden) and I liked them both a lot, but they where not quite what I was looking for. So I went to the Pioneer dual cd player.. nice, lot of features, and certainly looked the best.. but then I ran into this machine.. the CD 88, a DJ friend of mine had a gig the same night as me and showed me his numark. I fell in love instantly! this machine has everything that a Pro could possible want on a CD Player! It is built for speed and usability.. and it does both to perfection! I am able to get some near perfect mixes with the help of the beat mixer, the scratch function is near perfect, and all the features and features that a real DJ would use! it has really been a great addition to my shows... (though still a bit worried about name brand) but who cares, if it breaks I have a very long warranty on it :)

"Feature packed and easy to use!"
Numark has had a track record of making some very good and some very very bad products. Fortunately, the CDN-88 is probably the best product they have yet to make. Its turntable simulation really does sound like turntables, its effects are awesome, and its got sooooo many neat features! I don't have time to list everything this baby does, but its a darn cool cd deck. It is a bit expensive, but man, after you use this thing for a little bit, you never want to stop! I was able to use it and master many of its features right out of the box, but a quick glance over the instruction booklet was neccesary to optimize my abilities on it. Overall, if you can afford it, it's a great deck, and probably feature-wise the best one you can own.
