Technics SL-1200MK2 Turntable
Remember what DJs used in the club before the 1200s? Nobody else does either. That's because this turntable's heavy-duty design, vibration-resistant construction, and mechanical precision make a lot of what those early DJs did possible. This deck was the first to feature a Direct Drive motor, quartz movement for total accuracy, adjustable tone arm weights, anti-skate control, a pop-up target light and a sliding pitch control. With each new improvement, as form follows function, the Technics turntable has become a thing of beauty. From the community centers at the beginning of the disco era to the clubs of today, the Technics SL1200MK2 sets the standard again, from a tradition that the series has championed for over 30 years.

This turntable is the bomb. Period. Super easy to use, super easy to assemble, and with the right needle it sounds like gold. I would recommend going ahead and ordering a good needle when the turntable is ordered. I didn't and borrowed a...

- Tell the audiophiles yours is better.
This is a quality piece of equipment. Many entry and mid-level "audiophile" turntables are nothing but MDF with a motor glued on. They reek of cheap, but they are the hallowed belt drive systems that supposedly offer vinyl Nirvana......

- "Night club industry standard!"
Suming it up, I would recommend this turntable to any disc jockey that is serious about mixing, and even for audiophiles its a quality deck to play those vintage albums on. I use nothing but Tech 1200s performing and probably always will !

I'd buy the Vestax PDX-2000s any day over the Technics. They are based on designs over 20 years old and technology has come a long way since. There is a slight discrepancy in the pitch when you move it off its centre lock which is...
