DJ Dao has the exact same aesthetics, minus the Gold turntable thing.
So I guess it's not worth it much.

Not... at all. The NRC-300 or whatever is damn sexy compared to the dao ones which are quite sexy but not as much.

I got word back from DJ Ning about the silencing technology and turntable weight. It's Japan only because that is the only manufacturing location where the tools they need to implement those features are located. They have informed me that any customers wishing to have these modifications done are welcome to request it, but the shipping charges will be a bit higher due to transport from original place of manufacture to Japanese location to the US/UK/etc.

I have very limited experience with a Dao but I will say 100% for sure that this is the best controller I have ever personally played on (as you could tell from the review). I unfortunately don't have the funds to drop on a Dao to do a comparison review right now, but I would absolutely love to conduct a comparison between all 5 of the major ASC makers.

I have access to all but the Dao, so anyone in Southern California that would want to come hang out at my place (Anaheim) for a day and bring it with, hit me up.

Here's one probably not many people have seen before, it's called the Meisou KBHC-S80 (Konami Beatmania Hardcore Standard 80! whatever that means).. It's created by a man by the name of "DJAY", a very accomplished IIDX player from Taiwan. It looks to be a very beautiful controller, and I will be picking one up when I go to Taiwan next month. Will write a full review vs. my DAO when I return. Apparently these are so popular in Taiwan, and he does such a good job of making them, that there is a 4 month waiting list just to get one. Although, that could be completely biased coming from my Taiwanese friend, but we shall see. Happy drooling!

Now, THATs damn sexy...
PS why is the turntable thing on the side?
Anyway, looking back and forth between DJ Ning and Dao ones, DJ Ning does look better, but I hardly think it justifies...Like, a much higher price for what's basically an FP7 (I heard him say it's a little less than a real arcade turntable. I think.)
So I'll wait for an official DJ Ning VS DJ Dao comparison. (or unofficial, that could work too!)

Unfortunately you can't, at least, not to my knowledge. You essentially need to be living in Taiwan and/or know the creator personally.. As my Taiwanese "tour guide" so to speak is best friends with the manufacturer, I have secured one for purchase. Price quoted to me was 290$ USD.. but we'll see what happens when I get there.

Ah well that's too bad I guess. The former problem isn't an issue as I travel there every 3 months, but the latter is more of a social problem. Do post pics when you get that controller. It looks even cleaner than DAO's.
