I second the DTX recommendation. I only have the KOC and, while it was good in the beginning for learning to separate my hands and feet with timing and everything, it really isn't the same as playing in the arcade at all. I rarely bother getting my controller out anymore as I pretty much got as much out of it as I can. Playing 80s+ on it is kind of just a pain, and the pad layout can mess you up a little for the arcade if you get too used to it.
However, if you're not looking to get serious about it or play in the arcade much, or really play a whole lot in general, the KOC will get the job done for you. The sensitivity is perfect and I've never had a problem with mine other than constantly worrying I'm going to destroy the foam in the pedal. (which I still haven't completely done)
Edit: If you do go for it, I can totally vouch for Jumbo. Got a DJ Station pro through him a while back and I could not be happier with it :3
