Hi DJ-Energy, I own the DP DJ-101s (the same as the 151s except for the digital output function), and I love them. The startup torque is amazing (although not as good as the Techs) and they have not failed me since I bought them. Very good decision!

I got to spin on the DP 101 AND IMO they are really bad...
But if Great Outdoors owns them adn says he likes maybe you should try...

The thing I hate about them is they have quite a weak motor and the one I spun had this shaky needle...

Anyways, Yuval, whatever you take, it would be a must to have at least vinyl with so you can practice!!!

Good luck!

Anyone else has comments on this TT

for now its 1:1...

The shakey needle (tonearm, you mean?) is probably due to the fact that you didn't set the counterweight correctly; I set it to 2.5 and it works perfect.
The torque motor isn't so bad IMO, the specifications say that the startup torque measures at 2.2kgf/cm (which isn't too far away from Tech's specs) and having spun on both the 101s and the Tech 1200s, I must say that I don't notice that much a difference..

Does that make it 2:1?

ya i know!!!


its a shame.. looks like a really nice TT

i have a question

why does it say DIGITAL?

whats digital about it?

The whole pitch concept is digital which makes it more accurate, and the whole mechanisem inside is digital.

I'm not so sure about the pitching, but I think it's because on the 151's you can digitally output the music into something directly; like an MD or something, no need to hook it up to the mixer. You can't do that on the 101's (it says PHONO on the 101's). The 151's don't need earthing, which is a huge turn-on.

Earthing??

For conventional TTs you will have to earth the connections either to your amp or to your mixer; the earthing connectors will normally come together with your RCA (red and white) cables. The 151's won't need them, so output quality will be enhanced.
