''Konami Controller'' - An official controller by Konami, runs for about $90 from most online retailers. The keys are spaced correctly, but the turntable is smaller and closer to the keys. The keys are switchable so that you can emulate both the first and second player sides. People have problems with sticky keys, but you can mod your controller to get around these problems.

''American Controller'' - Also made by Konami, this controller comes bundled with the American beatmania, which usually costs $60 or so for the game and controller. It has some slight differences from the Japanese controller mentioned above; most are cosmetic, but it is worth noting that the buttons are curved outwards, and are therefore much less prone to sticking. Though it comes bundled with the American beatmania, this controller is fully compatible with the Japanese versions of IIDX.

''Rave Discman'' - Don't buy one. The price is attractive, but frankly, it's not all that great. For one, the keys are the wrong shape and are not spaced correctly. It's better to hold out for a Konami controller. It's possible to use a Rave Discman as a base for your own ASC, which some people on the forums have done. Take note this controller also has some voltage issues which could fry PS2->USB convertors that you might use.
