m3d with a few more bells and whistlesct ... and honestly the fact that you have to buy the top model technics to get more than +/-8% pitch shift is fucking attrocious

Ah, ok. Cheers for clearing that up guys. Agreed about the pitch though Robert... someone might even be tempted to get PDX-2300's if the world wasn't pro Technics

I bought 2 of 'em!!! finally!!! my first dex and I saved up al the cash to afford 'em!!... sweet!!!! I can't wait!!!
the extra bells & whistles on it I find are good for this price. I paid $550 US for each
If I'd live in america, I'd go for them too, but here, it's a little bit of money for a turntable...
Here, you pay 650€ for one MK5...(750$). I baught myself an ST100 yesterday. It'll arrive on saturday, cant wait

I think there about £350 in the UK, so about the same in $ as the U.S.

i bought 2 1200mk2's a year ago, replaced the tonearm on one of them, and still going strong. they were 400$ a piece from musiciansfriend.com back then. Am I missing anything with 1200mk2 over something higher?
