Logitech is a regular guest at our Tech2 lab; in fact its products almost seem to walk in on their own will these days. One thing is for sure – they're always welcome! Just a month back its Wireless DJ System was launched in the market, and caught my eye instantly. And before I knew it the product was on my desk grinning at me.
We exchanged a few pleasantries (after you review so many products you really can converse with them – or am I losing my mind?) Basically I asked the sleek little thing about its existence, about its predecessors etc. I learned this is a new model in its own right, and not a direct upgrade from the previous wireless models released by Logitech.
It also seemed to imply that it's better than anything else in its class, but I drew the line at that. That’s for me to find out...
Design and Features
Logitech products, at least the newer ones, look brilliant. Even the previously reviewed Harmony remote was a stunner, and so is the wireless DJ system. The ‘system’ consists of mainly a remote, a charger-cum-receiver, and a USB transmitter. Besides that you have the regular software setup CD, manuals, wires etc.
The color of the exterior is black and faux finished aluminum, shine levels being very mild. The remote is long and slim, with a removable, rechargeable lithium-ion battery that conducts in its bottom quarter. The buttons are arranged well, mainly around a centric dotted scroll wheel placed bang in the center of the front panel.
The two main buttons are for menu and home, and there are two playlist organizer buttons called ‘Dj’. On top of this matrix are three transport buttons, being on the silvery side, while the former are black. On a bottom strip are small round buttons for volume and mute.
The Logitech logo is ubiquitous, but never does it detract from the class of the design. The top half has a two-inch monochrome LCD display. Once switched on, the screen radiates a lovely blue hue, though I would have preferred a nice multicolored screen as in the Harmony 1000. The other components are simple in their aluminum finish, and bear just the logo.
