The regurgitated equipment thread, what should I buy
Yes, ive heard the technic thing over and over again.
but heres my situation, I dont wanna commit that much money to TTs right now. but this is what I have already
Mixer: Gemini PS-676(free)
fones: HD-280 pros
Vinyl: 4 vinyl I bought a while ago.
I can sorta mix, at least I could the last time I spun when I borrowed my friends TTs a 6 months ago for 4 months.
so I am looking at Numark 1650, or any TT thats between 180-200 on ebay.
thanks in advance

The 1650s aren't as bad as everyone will tell you. I'm surprised with mine, I thought going by what everyone had said that they would be useless, but yeah, don't mind mine at all, reckon they are pretty good for the money.

Budget - Stantan 500AL Mk2 They are the standard cart
Better - i use Ortofon Concorde Pro Silvers. I can thoroughly recommend them, no one will disagree that they are an excellent cart
There are also Shure Whitelabels. Haven't used them myself, but from what I hear they may be better than Concordes.

so $300 for 2 decks and 2 carts then? That is the best way to ask since then you wont be getting the people telling to you to buy every item in the spectrum. I cant help you as I have only had techs, but when I bought my techs uses, I think I paid $500 for 2 tech12's & 2 carts.
