Personally I'd go for the Allen & Heath any day - I'm planning to buy one myself next month. The build and sound quality is much better than the Pioneer, and the Pioneer effects get 'gimmicky' and overused quite quickly.
I still quite like using a Pioneer in a club situation where hi-fi sound quality isn't the top priority, and it's easy to use, but the A&H just sounds better - and for home use that's much more important...
