why only cause they are one of the best? or cause the cost upward of $700 USD? each!

JBL for over $700 USD each??? pretty sure you can get better ones for that price. but I don't think you need to spend that much for speakers to use while djing

Ya zaplotil $350 za svoi, za paru

hahaha! ART don't let little things get to you. its not what you have that counts, but more how you make use of it. keep working towards whatever goal you have and hard work will pay off! nothing comes easy

HOLY FUCK! YOU SPENT $2500 ON THOSE PEICES OF SHIT??

OMFG.... OMFG.... ARE YOU RETARDED???

*can't believe someone spent that much on shit*


Okay...

Tech1200's at Metro Sound = $700 x 2 = $1400
Mixer at Metro Sound = $500
$1400 + 500 = $1900

you could've saved your ass $600 if you bought from Metro Sound... and that's not even a package... Metro Sound has packages where you'd be spending LESS than what i said... say... $1600 for 2 techs and good mixer.

OMFG....

*shakes head*

well like I said before I got the headphones and a pair of needless as well, and yeah I wanted the PISSES OF SHIT STANTONS! IS THAT OK WITH YOU? not that I give a shit. But had I fucking know that the bastards at the fucking UPS would charge me a damn fortune, never would have ordered them. YUP I SPEND $2500 CAD but it was my money. So what do you give a shit, you are not out $2500, I am!

So here is what I paid $950 (TT's) + $550 (mixer) + $150 (headphones) + $340 (Pair of Stanton GRM's 2) + $110 (Delivery) + $400 (COD's this is where I got fucked) = $2500

Oh and BTW did any of you help me find a place in TO to buy the decks? No I remember I made a thread last year about me wanting to buy TT's and not a single soul replied. And since I don't live in TO I could not find jack shit to buy, not even a store that carried DJ equipment. Had anyone fucking helped me but no one did so what the fuck is there to moan about now? So yeah I lost some money but I love my TT's and none of you are out of money.

Yeah I am fucking retarded like that, does that get you off or something! Thanx for all your fucking suport! It really helps you know!

$2400.. same deal. :P

well thank you for pointing that out to me! and the less knowledgable of us on this TA foruM!

Considering you're a n00b to spinning, you don't need cart's like those. Stanton 500al or 680hp's would do just fine.

$100 for Sony MDR500 (better than the 700's)
And still... a package deal from Metro Sound would've saved your ass a lot of cash.

Even if he spend $800 per 1200, and it all came out to $2400, he'd still be WAY ahead, as he'd have Techs... not POS stantons.
There's a reason why Technics 1200 and 1210's are industry standard. It's because they're built to last, they have high-torque motors, and they're bullit-proof.

Why am i concerned? because idiot's like you shouldn't DJ.
You could've given me the money and let me run... it would've done you better. Seriously, tho. The mixer is nice. Better for techno and hardcore, but after you master beatmatching and shit, that mixer will let you pull off some nice technical mixes.

anyhow... back to the tables:
First of all, the torque on stanton's is weaker than low-end gemini's.
Second they have the straight tonearm's which are good for scratching, but regular play they're ass, and pointless if you're going to spin trance.

As for asking for help on here a while ago:
Since when did you have to rely on people in a message board to buy pizza? You didn't. You just looked up the number and called. Well... you do that here too...you pick up the yellow pages and looking for "musical instrument sales" or whatever, then you start calling the shops up and asking if they sell the DJ equipment. I'm sorry i wasn't around to answer that question a year ago as you say, when you asked.

As far as i know; Play De and East Bloc sells equipment and for other record stores you could just ask the guys. I'm sure they'd tell you where to go.
The big place to go is Metro Sound. It's on Yonge just north of College, on the west side. It's a small shop, so if you blink at the right time, you'll miss it. (i'll say it again) They have package deals there, where you will spend less per peice because the packages are set up that way. They can manage to take a hit on the overhead if they're selling three boxes instead of one. It's just business economics.
Or you could go to Steve's (on queen) but i suggest against that since they're a Guitar/Drums/Piano store. and they're pricey too.

My suggestion would be, is you call the place up you bought the equipment from and tell them it's not what you want and ship it back, and get a refund. However, you don't need to waste another $400 on UPS shipping.

Do you have any friends that spin? If you do, did you think to consult them for help? Because I know if I made a huge investment like that, I would take the time to get lots of opinions and locations on where to get the best deal.

Just a thought.

sorry, the mdr-v500's aren't better than the v700's, which aren't very good either. Don't believe me, ask Gluegun. He's the headphone expert around here. Do you work for metro sound or something? lol... last time i checked, (december) they were selling that vestax mixer for $640 or something...

everyone knows the technics' qualifications. Those stantons however, aren't as POS as you think. In fact, Ministry of Sound has replaced their technics with Stanton ST-100's. They do have more features, and the specifications do stand up. If they're as reliable and durable as technics, it has yet to be determined.

Hey hey, no need to be calling names now. Don't get all worked up because he has a job and money to spend. It's his money after all.

again, you're probably getting the 100's confused with the 80's or 60's. Stanton has put out a competitor to the 1200 with its str8-100 and st-100. similiar to the vestax decks and the numark ttx-1 or whatever.

uhm, that would just cost more money. Thats a silly suggestion. He has the equipment, and he's happy with it. REmember, his money... not yours...

the only reason I got involved in this anyways, because I felt I had to stand up for him from you calling him and idiot and whatnot. I don't think its neccessary to be calling him names, especially when I don't see anything wrong with what he did. :P Although he should've been warned about the brokerage fees. Everyone learns.

BTW, there is the DJ Booth forum on this board, with tons of experienced DJ's who can give you advice on equipment and stuff. These guys are really helpful.

OK well had I fucking had a friend DJ I would have known that, but regardless what are you complaining about? Are you just jealous?

LOL! Don't make me laugh they are a lot worse than the 700's. but whatever, that's your opinion.

Hmm yeah and they have been the same fucking TT's for the last 20 years. I am not doubting the the industry standard, but I wanted something different.
Higer torque than my stantons? Don't make me laugh! Check your sources first before stating the facts, my stantons have "High torque direct drive motor (2.2 Kgf-cm)" 10% more than the Technics 1200 or 1210's. or the new M3D's for that matter!

I am sorry I don't remember asking your particular opinion about why I decided to become a DJ. Why don't you go find a job ya bum! Oh and BTW are you on crack why would I give you any money to a big ass mofo like you!

Oh and how would giving you the money would have done me better? I have my equipment I love it, what the hell can you offer? Sexual services? ROFL! Sorry I don't swing that way!

once again High torque direct drive motor (2.2 Kgf-cm)
The straight tone arm is to keep the fucking tone arm from skiping as I do a lot of back cueing and I have noticed since I am a big and a strong guy I am a little harsh on my back cueing, unlike weaklings like you. But that's another story.

Well because, since I live 30 min drive outside of Toronto and the town that I live in does not exactly have DJ Equipment stores on every corner or any stores for that matter. Secondly it's not like I have a Toronto yellow pages laying around anywhere. Thirdly since I don't have any friends that DJ I needed some answers, but had no one to address my issues to. So had to make my own decisions, based on what I read in the Magazines particularly IDJ ("www.i-dj.co.uk") seriously this was my best source, oh and BTW they are the greatest DJ magazine on this planet. ATM at least.

Yes ofcourse right away! phew... maybe not.

What is with all the bashing. I got into this with good intentions and all I hear out of you is criticism. At least I did not go out and buy some belt drives.

And another thing your industry standard people always too scared to try anything new. WTF dude? And calling me an idiot cause I have a different taste in things I like, well that's real smart. Congrats I give you a TA Award of the month for: "THE MOST IGNORANT TWAT OF THE MONTH ON TA AWARD"

Can't you just stop with your criticism and just say congrats? I guess when you are that ignorant it's for life!

Oh it may just be that you don't know shit about Stantons that's why you talk shit about them and maybe just maybe you should read up on the info about my tables and than, only than make statements based on facts. http://www.stantonmagnetics.com/alpha44/tt_str8-100.asp

That's would have been a great thought but since I did not have any friends that spin that does not realy help!
