NEW REVIEW - They are a good buy, but....
I bought a pair and I really like them. As for all my turntables I use laptop fans to keep my gear cool. They seem to work pretty well and the fit perfectly under my turntables and in my crate. These do have a tendancy to get hot, but it is preventable if you do it right. I have spun with the Pioneer 1000's and 800's although they are the so-called industry standard, the Denon's are almost equal. If they had a better repair policy they would be excellent.

Buyer Beware (Store you receipts)
I have had these bad boys for about 2 months. They perform well as long as they don't overheat. When they get hot, that's all she wrote. My Denon's start playing super fast when they overheat, which can cause an unexpected embarrassment and loss of $$$ if you play live. I have a few friends who have this same same problem which is why we are all switching.
If you spin at home and only at home, and you keep them cool then it's a decent buy. These Denon's do feel and act like turntables. The Flanger and Echo features are great for mixing. Sampling feature is precise and can be edited. The features, on a whole are much better than many players on the market, but once this product overheats, look for your receipt.
This is not a horrible product. It's just not made for a traveling/club DJ. When you try to call Denon and tell them about this problem, you will need your receipt. I am one of those sorry souls that always loses his receipts after a month so I am stuck with 2 heat sensitive machines.

I've done the research
for the money this is the best unit i could recomend! Its more user friendly then its big brother and also considered to be a better product. As for its rival the cdj 800 it depends what you want to use it for. The scratch pad has a vinyl feel but WILL NOT always return to the same cue point that you started at.. ONLY PROBLEM I'VE FOUND with this unit... DNS vs CDJ I'd pick this one again...

OVERHEATING
Feature wise, the DNS-3500 is a decent buy. The main problem with this product is it overheats on A CONSISTENT BASIS! EVEN IN COOL ENVIROMENTS!!! It also skips a lot, EVEN WITH BRAND NEW CD'S, FRESH OUT THE PACKAGE!!! The rack mounted Denon cd players that I've used in the past have a lot less feature's, but most importantly, THEY WERE RELIABLE!!! They never overheated & never skipped. RECOMMEND THE PIONEER MK3'S. They seem to be the industry standard.

DN-S3500 is one of the best
I own a DN-S3500 and it is one of the best cd players out their. It is simple to use, ulike the Pioneer CDJ-1000MK3 which is very complicated, and its good for the price. Its also has the feel of a real turn table, it move like if it was a record, so all you old school turn table fans this is it right here the DN-S3500.
It also has a sampler which you can play while playing a song and you can also scrach the sample you sampled. Also the effects are very good and you can play 2 songs on this cd player.
Oh and another thing thats good about this cd player is the pitch and the levels it has, so its good for you djs that chopp and screw music.
So if your looking for a turn table but in cd players, i recomend the DN-S3500 a new simple version of a turn table.

The best
This is the first pair of digital cd turntables I have purchased. I started on vinyl, and for me The DN-s3500's offer great technology and features, while keeping the DJ experience more interactive with the vinyl feel it gives. I love the platter effects as well as the built in effects that are all easy to use. I lvoe it!

DENON DN-3500
Denon DN-3500 is the BEST to me(Juan). I own a set of these CD Turntables and to me is the BEST. The feel of the turntable, the knobs, the lights, WOW! The only defect I see is the little plastic that holds the plastic disc on the turntable. For some reason they break because when you slide it into place it tends to open so it can stay in place. The good thing about it is it does come with a spare or two but then those go weak. Other then that to me it works great. GOOD JOB DENON, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!

Great cd players...
I love my Denons...they feel almost like real vinyl turntables! The effects and stuff are a cool plus, although I don't use them much since my mixer (DJM-400) has built in effects. I didn't have any overheating issues like others had, but my decks do have a lot of cue slippage. It makes scratching and beat juggling more difficult; Good thing i'm not a turntablist :). I wouldn't recommend this as a beginner system because of the price (I learned that the hard way). They are also bulky and annoying to carry around to mobile gigs. If you don't plan on moving them around too much and doing a lot of mobile gigs with them, then they are well worth the money!

Flawless!
I have owned a pair of the 3500 for over a year and not once have they over heated. I am an old school DJ that always used vinyl and got tired of lugging around all my records, and these units have completly change my proformances. They feel,sound,and perform flawless and have tons of extra feachers to keep you pumped! 2 loops,a built in sampler, 7 great effects and you can even search for another track on the same CD while it is playing another song. These have been one of my best investments and trust me they are incredible!

Wonderful: No problems yet
I've had this CD Player for over a year now and have yet to experience any malfunctions. I've even used it outdoors for hours and still no malfunctions. I was told by a retailer that many complaints were made on this product so Denon decided to make some system corrections and have shipped out better 3500s and that the problems this product used to have are no longer issues. They must be right! So far I am really really happy. In my opinion, I think this is the best player on the market. I find it even better than the Pioneers even though many people do not agree. What makes this player better is features and spin platter plus it's wayyyy cheaper. Only flaw I can provide is that you cannot really use a mark point because the cue doesn't always return to the marked point. It's better to play it by ear. The pioneers are better when it comes down to the cue point.
