I'm in love with my Xone:32 as are all the other dj's that come over to use it from time to time for my after-parties. Top Pick!! The filters and EQ's cannot be beat.

The build and sound quality is much better than the Pioneer, and the Pioneer effects get 'gimmicky' and overused quite quickly. I still quite like using a Pioneer in a club situation where hi-fi sound quality isn't the top priority, and it's easy to use, but the A&H just sounds better - and for home use that's much more important...
