lookin at buying Gemini PDT-6000 soon just wondering if they are as good as technics because they have a better wow & flutter (pdt6000=.01 1200s=.02 if i remember right) then technics, the torque is also higher it is 3.0 kg/cm and they have a bunch of other features (that will probably never be used)the price looks awesome for all you get ($300 @ pssl.com)
check them out below and go to page 6 for specifications http://www.geminidj.com/manuals/english/11PDT6000e.pdf
correct me if i am wrong but i was under the impression that wow & Flutter was how much the record strays from a certain pitch or speed while spinning |

| Alot of ppl are gonna hate me for saying this... but yes, technics is loosing its standard in TT's... And they're gonna hate me even more when i say that the gemini is indeed better(but it is true, more features, and higher torque)... |

Simple test: Knock on the turntables gently (as if knocking on a door).
If it rings hollow, don't buy it. If it clunks, it may be okay (i.e. very solid Technics).
I too was skeptical about the "Technics or death" type feelings that many DJs expressed here, but THEY ARE WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY! |

listen man there is no doubt in my mind if i had the money i would buy technics but i do think that people in my situation (sorry bout the speellin i am drunk a ) need to have an econmically sound solution and i truly believe that the pdt 600 or even the pt2100 are a sounds solution.. technics if i could afford thats what i would be spinning on but i can't and i like to be creative so i am gonna go for the pdt6000 that out perform the technics.oh and by the way i am almost positive that the pdt6000 are not a plastic frame because they way 36 pounds. fuyck man i'll finsh theis tomorro.peacve out!

| Well I'm gonna purchase an new tt one of these days, and I prefer the PTD-6000 over the Technics. I've heard nothing but positive thins about it. It's at least as good as the technics, but waaaay cheaper and with alot more features. |

| We all need to keep in mind that the technics are a little bit dated... I mean, they were designed in the '70ies... Back then, some of us were still liquid! |

Well, I have no idea really, but going on everything I've read + having a quick go on them, I am definitely getting Technics :)
Reason: I want something thats gonna last a whole career if I get good enough to spin out and earn some moolah :toocool: With Technics you have that guarantee, with Gemini, you don't... as far as I know, Gemini have mainly made low end tables before, correct me if I'm wrong. |

| I choose Technics solely on the fact that 90% of clubs use Technics. The day they change to Turntable X, is the day I switch too. |
