SC6000M VS SC5000M - INDEPTH COMPARISON. Which one to buy in 2020

Shortly after buying the Denon SC6000m's I made a deal with someone who want to buy my SC5000m. Hence I am doing an in-depth comparison on the two decks before letting go of the 5000m. You might wonder whether it's still worth buying an SC5000m in 2020 when a 6000m is already released. I have your answer in this video. My opinion is based on my experience with both these decks.

I just sold both my Sc5000m's and went with the 6000m's, the screen is brighter on the Sc5000m but everything else is better on the 6000m's but not by much. You can't go wrong with either. The larger screen makes a difference for my 50+ eyes. The 6000m is definitely less flashy. Everything is on point in this video.

Didn't realise you were reviewing from my old home, NZ ... until the end of your video ... great review bro! Answered every question I had regarding me wanting to use a SC5000M and SC6000M together and hoping they can both use Tidal and use the same music from the internal HDD on the SC6000M. The different sized platters is a lil bit of a deal breaker for me but that's purely preference

The SC5000's are still a great option in 2021 now that they are significantly cheaper than the 6000's and you're still getting the functions. Not every DJ has hands like King Kong

@allthingsdj4652 2 жыл бұрын

Its all about preference. Some learnt to scratch on turntables, so they would normally prefer a bigger platter. Some learnt to scratch on cdj's so the small platter is not an issue.

The SC5000 units are STILL GREAT. Mind their low prices and full software support - you get all the same features. I don't need the bigger screen or jog/wheel. Ofc the SC6000s are also amazing. And they all blow the Pioneer trash out of the game :)

@Chrystalos33 2 жыл бұрын

I completely agree, Pioneer is over rated , I got the xdi 700 and got rid of em and Ill Get the 5000 ones, I also prefer the small ones.

@Chrystalos33 2 жыл бұрын

Xdj 700 and 5000 ones they are now nearly the same price and the difference is huge I won't buy anything else from pioneer. I have also opened the pioneer mixers and Allen and heath xone92 and the pioneer one looks a toy in comparison with the xone92. They got advantage from have become the standard and this should change, Also few clubs provide turntables nowadays, people like who play on technics have more issues so as to play and gigs, and that's a real shtttt

thanks for your review. Good and clear. I was looking for 2 sc6000m's, but they are not in stock right now. Some have the 5000m still in stock. I think I go for the 5000m. So thank you again.

Do you still have the 6000, have your rubber coated buttons started to go sticky like they are covered in glue? I've had problems with this rubber coating on electronics before and had to strip it off with methylated spirits.

@allthingsdj4652 2 жыл бұрын

My 6000m platter have no play at all. However, my one disc's clip mechanism leaves a slight gap, which makes spin backs or scratching too loose. can be fixed by adding an extra paper or wax slipmat underneath the disk.

i think the lighting for the hotcues is a clear downgrade functional wise in club environment. was much better to see the sqare around then just a little stripe somwhere on the button. and if - it should have been exactly in the middle. as in theory when its dark and you just see the stripe you just can guess the correct position of the button. seems they were a bit overmotivated to make it less flashy

Track loading tests must be done on the same track and drive! not like in video

@allthingsdj4652 3 жыл бұрын

I clearly state on the video that both decks are reading from the same hard drive at the same time. Yes the tracks happens to be different, but they have the same file properties and are more or less equal in length. This is a real world test, not a clinical lab test where every micro millisecond makes a difference to the conclusions. And the results were still declared equal anyway.

@djdarrenbarnes 3 жыл бұрын

When your testing the track loading speed, you're definitely not loading the same tracks on both decks. The track lengths and titles give it away lol

@allthingsdj4652 2 жыл бұрын

That doesn't matter, because the difference in loading spread was so negligible, the argument still hold. You don't have to be anal about everything if it doesn't matter. Its about showing there is no significant loading time difference, whether the tracks are the same or not. So there is no give away, gotcha or anything to 'LoL' about mate.
