Technics Or Stantons!!

I been using my SL1200 FOR ABOUT 10 YRS NOW!! AND I SEE ALOT OF DJ'S USING THE STANTONS! WHATS UP WITH THAT!! I THINK TECHNICS IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO. DONT YOU?

PEACE,

Ableton.

it's more like

technics or food

and in that case i would choose technics

i want to try the stantons. there's no doubt that both decks are solid. the question u should be asking, will the stantons last 10years and still be solid? only time will tell

Decks come and go Technics stay!

Tech 12's are still the industry standard. So unless you wanna start lugging your own tables to gigs, I recommend sticking with old faithful.

Nah, CDJ-1000's are the industry standard

I haven't seen any DJ's around here spin vinyl in quite some time.

The Stanton ST-150's do look/feel very very nice.

I agree with Ryan. Those Stantons are nice turntables though.

The Numark TTX is super too, maybe even better than technics.

They have had quite a bit of problems. I know a few people who have had to buy Techs after their TTXs stopped working.

And I know a few people who's Techs stopped working. So what?

So what is I think you'd be hard pressed to find more people who have switched from Technics to Numark than vice-versa.

Fair enough, but that hardly has anything to do with the topic, does it.

anyway, the engine is the same as in the technics.

plus the blue led makes it much more conveinient too.
the price range is same for technics and for the numarks so they both really are quality.

all down to personal preference...

No it's not... who told you that?

You can get your blue LED's on 1200 M5G's too

Who really cares? All three are like $500 tables, you'll be fine with any of them. Technics aren't infalible.

i remember hearing that both numark and lenco have bought the license from technics.

man, the guy who posted "technics or food" was pretty much on the money. IMO stantons are the alternative if you dont have the money to spend for technics. Personally iv gone with Stantons in past, And my new deck on its way is yet another Stanton. Why? Because a)I have other things to pay for aswell b)I dont feel i need a technics (And most of my mixing is on CDs now anyway

But most importantly c)My previous stantons NEVER had a problem. The only reason i am buying new ones is because i had to sell my old ones for traveling overseas.

Stantons are solid, Yet affordable.

Technics can be given to your grandchildren and still be as good as the day you brought them.

Actually, the Stanton ST-150's cost MORE than 1200's. They weigh like 40lbs each. They are really, really nice decks. A modern design.

like myself, they flushed it down the toilet... i hope

Who cares... I have 3 ST-150's because I prefer using them, when I play out though I wouldnt expect to see a pair, the reality is there not the standard because Tech's have surefooted themselves as that, and vinyl is not played much these days anyway so I doubt if any turntable will ever knock the tech off the perch.

I have a good friends that has both 1200 mkIIs and stantons (I forget which model). Anyways the Stantons have a higher torque motor which has a more solid feel, as a result they apparently don't last as long, especially with scratching.

1200s, end of argument.
