CTW Members ReBirth Posted April 27, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted April 27, 2003 Well, there's nothing that beats Technics But the Stanton STR8-100's is pretty decent, for its price. http://www.stantonmagnetics.com/alpha44/tt_str8-100.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTW Reviewers Wub Wub Posted April 28, 2003 CTW Reviewers Share Posted April 28, 2003 Yeah matey, Citronic PD-2's. +/-20% pitch 78rpm same torque as technics reverse play cool blue strobe light on them. I got mine new at £319 a piar, including 4 cartirdges. Quote Harder. Faster. Better. Stronger. Badder. Smarter. Wub Wub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW DJs Chris-Hutchinson Posted April 28, 2003 CTW DJs Share Posted April 28, 2003 thing is tho, with Technics, 99% of the time they are what clubs have installed in the dj booths - reason they are so popular is that DJs tend to prefer using decks they will use when playing out so they dont have to spend a few minutes adapting to motor strength etc.!!!!

CTW Members Chewi1562627764 Posted April 29, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted April 29, 2003 i agree with chris here. I got shitty gemini xl500 mkII's and can mix pretty tight on them.....but if u tell me to mix on techies i'd freak out! lol was tempted to buy some vestax when i got the cash - but ive now set my heart on 1210's simply coz they are teh standard and when you're looking at playing out u want to turn up and know u are gonna be comfortable.
