The Numark NDX-500 is a compact but solidly build media player that accepts CDs, USB sticks and can function as a Serato DJ controller. This means that for under USD 250 you get many of the features on more expensive players (the XDJ-1000 from Pioneer DJ sells for approx USD 1000) without cleaning your savings account.

The Numark NDX500 is very compact and very cheap media player. It reads CD’s and USB sticks, and it has onboard controls for loops and hot cues. The jog wheel is excellent and feels quite solid.
The screen is very basic but at this price range, you cannot expect much more. Finally, the NDX500 supports Serato DJ so you can add 2 of them to your Serato DJ setup and have physical decks in addition to your Serato DJ virtual decks on your DJ controller. Great!
