Stanton Spin Cycle Pack??

So what do u guys think about that. Is it good for a beginner who has never played a single lp before??? It includes:
1 SMX-201 mixer
2 STR8-30 decks
2 Slipmats
2 500B cartridges
1 DJ PRO 10 headphones

It costs here in finland about 647�...

I would atleast go for a direct drive turntable, stanton st8-60. Because the belt driven st-30 might be a good starter but when you go from belt driven to direct driven in might be tough IMO.

No dont even go with the str8-60 the torque on it sucks at least the str8-80 it will do the job for u man.

agreed but i'm more tempted to say check out the gemini PT2100s.

str8-80s are not bad though.

get yourself a vestax mixer rather than a stanton.. higher quality, not much more $$ .. the 275 is so common and works out decently.

and as far as headphones.. sony MDR-V7506's or MDR-V700DJ's... are my prefs.
