The real thing

Date of Review:  Aug 9, 2002
The Bottom Line: DJ or just a vinyl lover who wants a timeless machine to last forever, this is the one you'll want.
Review: This started out way back in the 70s as a Rolls Royce home hi-fi component. When the disco boom started, people looked to the emerging direct-drive turntables as tough enough to take the abuse of heavy party play.

Come the 1200 MK2 in the...

Have you mastered Technics SL-1200MK2 Turntable?

Date of Review:  Apr 19, 2004
The Bottom Line: Technics SL-1200MK2 is a great turntable recognized as an industry standard.
Review: Bedroom DJ s along with Professional DJ s want solid equipment that will not only stand up to live audiences but also works in the wee hours of the night when you are mixing music alone with your headphones. Before purchasing Technics SL-1200MK2...

The 1200 Standard

Date of Review:  Feb 12, 2003
The Bottom Line: I would reccomend this to any begining or advanced DJ.
Review: The technics company has been making exceptional audio products since 1969 with the release of the SP-10 DIRECT DRIVE turntable. It was the first of its kind - a direct drive motor for a turntable!

Some ten years later Technics did some...

So you want to be a dj

Date of Review:  Apr 26, 2002
The Bottom Line: If you're serious about becoming a dj, I recommend getting 1200s, forget the imitators(Gemini, Numark, American Dj, Gli,etc.).
Review: What can I say. This turntable is the industry standard for djing. These turntables has been around since 1979 and still sell strong. I can remember when I finally bought my 1200s. It was a dream come true because I knew these were the last...

Want to DJ? Get the right equipment!

Date of Review:  May 28, 2002
The Bottom Line: There is a reason every DJ you've ever heard of uses 1200s... If you are serious about DJing, you better get the right equipment!
Review: Cool, you are going to DJ?

So what turntables are you buying? If you answer anything other than 1200s its clear you either don't know what you are doing or aren't really serious about DJing.

Technics makes two different kinds of...

The Daddy of all Turntables!!!

Date of Review:  Oct 10, 2003
Review: What can I say?? Having been a dj for over 15 years I still haven't found anything that even comes close in my honest opinion. When I first started "back in the day" I learned to mix on 2 terrible old belt drive turntables. If you are in a similar...

Indestructible and almost audiophile-quality sound

Date of Review:  Mar 19, 2007
Review: I owned one of these tables for a couple of years. I'm an audiophile and still like the sound of LPs better than any digital medium. The SL1200 Mk2 is an example of what a huge company can do at a very reasonable price point. Audiophiles will try to...

Technics SL-1200 Owners...Use Your Head...Shell That Is!

Date of Review:  Feb 14, 2006
The Bottom Line: There is nothing like an original part when it comes to turntable headshells...especially for a Technics SL-1200 Turntable!
Review: OK...why write a review on a simple tonearm headshell? Well...the fact of the matter is that over the course of my long and fun run of being a hi-fi bug, I have owned too numerous to mention various Technics turntables. Although I have never owned...

A Solid Deck for the DJ and Vinyl Fan

Date of Review:  Dec 19, 2003
Review: This deck is structurally similar to all of the other variations that have been developed; all are very robust. The cast aluminum and rubber base give it a very solid foundation to resist skipping from large subwoofers at home or the club. As they...
