      Who missed what boat? Denon? Bluetooth lag prevents serious DJ performance, thus it is deactivated (but there is a BT-chip I believe). However, just the rear RCA main and connect two battery speakers swiftly, no problem imho. Or if you just prep something, you only need your headphones anyway...

    I have a Denon DJ Prime 4 and have been using it professionally for 1 year. I never had any problems regarding operation, software or updates. I believe that each one must first know the equipment in the reviews on CZcams and then be sure that it is the option that will make you happy.
    Problems will always exist, as long as you have made the purchase in legal places, you will be able to have assistance. The rest is to use accordingly and thus have your performance guaranteed.

      I'm not familiar with the Mixon, but it looks like it has a more standard layout, and of course you get two more channels for mixing, so I can see where it that might be a better set up for some people. The nice thing about the Go is it's a stand alone device, and it stands up to hot outdoor gigs in these central Texas summers.
      I have a gig where the sun creeps under the canopy and starts hitting the stage by the end of the day. The Go didn't even flinch in direct sunlight and high 90s (F).

    The thing like bout the denon equipment is the choice is either standalone or WiFi streaming. Aa using tidal through serato can be bit of a struggle sometimes needs off line mode if your at home..thought the WiFi streaming was for when you where at different venue. But with Microsoft rolling out updates after updates thing its been done you use tidal via serato dj pro then Microsoft send updates even tho have set a time when not to it crashes the system getting very annoying now. This why would like to turn to the denon stuff.

      as someone living in a place where gigs are pretty much cancelled for the forseeable future, having a battery powered kit to take to parks and for small gatherings has been fantastic. I don't have the Go, but I do have a portable, micro, battery-powered system that has been great for small gatherings, hangs in the park, and just djing in headphones during the sunset.
