get any Technics direct drive turntable if you're rich and planning on djing for a while, if you are poe (poor) (like me...hehe) get Gemini XL-500 II's

If you are poor...wait..and save up for Tech's...anything less is not worth it.

I'm poor.I only have 10 bucks at the moment.
The Gemini is pretty cheap.I think I might go with that one.Are Numarks any good though?

If your serious about spinning, there's only one. Technics 1200s. Yes, they're expensive but if you're really serious about it, don't settle for anything less.

are those numark dj in a box crap good? or are their low cost turntables good? the direct drives that are like 150 or so

ok i agree with these guys that nothing comes close to the technics but i will give you the other side of the coin because i know that not everybody has money for technics. That Numark DJ in a box, do not even think of touching it with a 10 foot pole!!!! Next you have to ask yourself how much money you want to spend. Good turntables at a decent price would have to be the Numark TT-100's. Another would be the Gemini PT-2000's. Anything else and i think that you're getting really close in price to the Technics and should go with them. The last piece of advice, make sure that the table you get is a direct drive not a belt drive!!!
