OK well had I fucking had a friend DJ I would have known that, but regardless what are you complaining about? Are you just jealous?

$100 for Sony MDR500 (better than the 700's)
And still... a package deal from Metro Sound would've saved your ass a lot of cash.

LOL! Don't make me laugh they are a lot worse than the 700's. but whatever, that's your opinion.

Even if he spend $800 per 1200, and it all came out to $2400, he'd still be WAY ahead, as he'd have Techs... not POS stantons.
There's a reason why Technics 1200 and 1210's are industry standard. It's because they're built to last, they have high-torque motors, and they're bullit-proof.
|
Hmm yeah and they have been the same fucking TT's for the last 20 years. I am not doubting the the industry standard, but I wanted something different.
Higer torque than my stantons?  Don't make me laugh! Check your sources first before stating the facts, my stantons have "High torque direct drive motor (2.2 Kgf-cm)" 10% more than the Technics 1200 or 1210's. or the new M3D's for that matter!

Why am i concerned? because idiot's like you shouldn't DJ.
You could've given me the money and let me run... it would've done you better. Seriously, tho. The mixer is nice. Better for techno and hardcore, but after you master beatmatching and shit, that mixer will let you pull off some nice technical mixes.
|
I am sorry I don't remember asking your particular opinion about why I decided to become a DJ. Why don't you go find a job ya bum! Oh and BTW are you on crack why would I give you any money to a big ass mofo like you!
Oh and how would giving you the money would have done me better? I have my equipment I love it, what the hell can you offer? Sexual services? ROFL! Sorry I don't swing that way!
| quote: |
anyhow... back to the tables:
First of all, the torque on stanton's is weaker than low-end gemini's.
Second they have the straight tonearm's which are good for scratching, but regular play they're ass, and pointless if you're going to spin trance.
|
once again High torque direct drive motor (2.2 Kgf-cm)
The straight tone arm is to keep the fucking tone arm from skiping as I do a lot of back cueing and I have noticed since I am a big and a strong guy I am a little harsh on my back cueing, unlike weaklings like you. But that's another story.

As for asking for help on here a while ago:
Since when did you have to rely on people in a message board to buy pizza? You didn't. You just looked up the number and called. Well... you do that here too...you pick up the yellow pages and looking for "musical instrument sales" or whatever, then you start calling the shops up and asking if they sell the DJ equipment. I'm sorry i wasn't around to answer that question a year ago as you say, when you asked.
|
Well because, since I live 30 min drive outside of Toronto and the town that I live in does not exactly have DJ Equipment stores on every corner or any stores for that matter. Secondly it's not like I have a Toronto yellow pages laying around anywhere. Thirdly since I don't have any friends that DJ I needed some answers, but had no one to address my issues to. So had to make my own decisions, based on what I read in the Magazines particularly IDJ ("www.i-dj.co.uk") seriously this was my best source, oh and BTW they are the greatest DJ magazine on this planet. ATM at least.

As far as i know; Play De and East Bloc sells equipment and for other record stores you could just ask the guys. I'm sure they'd tell you where to go.
The big place to go is Metro Sound. It's on Yonge just north of College, on the west side. It's a small shop, so if you blink at the right time, you'll miss it. (i'll say it again) They have package deals there, where you will spend less per peice because the packages are set up that way. They can manage to take a hit on the overhead if they're selling three boxes instead of one. It's just business economics.
Or you could go to Steve's (on queen) but i suggest against that since they're a Guitar/Drums/Piano store. and they're pricey too.
|
Well thanx for the info but it's only a year late.
| quote: |
My suggestion would be, is you call the place up you bought the equipment from and tell them it's not what you want and ship it back, and get a refund. However, you don't need to waste another $400 on UPS shipping. |
Yes ofcourse right away! phew... maybe not.
What is with all the bashing. I got into this with good intentions and all I hear out of you is criticism. At least I did not go out and buy some belt drives.
And another thing your industry standard people always too scared to try anything new. WTF dude? And calling me an idiot cause I have a different taste in things I like, well that's real smart. Congrats I give you a TA Award of the month for: "THE MOST IGNORANT TWAT OF THE MONTH ON TA AWARD"
Can't you just stop with your criticism and just say congrats? I guess when you are that ignorant it's for life!
Oh it may just be that you don't know shit about Stantons that's why you talk shit about them and maybe just maybe you should read up on the info about my tables and than, only than make statements based on facts. http://www.stantonmagnetics.com/alpha44/tt_str8-100.asp

Oh and I know my stuff about my stantons. And yeah, you are absolutely right about the MOS replacing their Technics with the Stanton ST8-100's.
