| if your not buying techs, and just want decks to start mixing with, go get the Gemini XL500II. get 2 of those and a descent mixer. Once you think your rdy, move onto technics. |

Well- I dont want crap ones- I just dont wanna buy tech's yet-
I had some Numarks that were horrible.
are Gemini's above average? |

| The Gemini PT series is really good. It's direct drive and is basically a less expensive clone of the Technics 1200MK2. I know some people that have used these decks and they think they are great. |

| well they are about 160 a piece for brand new ones. I would suggest just goin to the shop and getting new ones, and not off ebay. I started out on 2 used geminis XL500II. They are perfect for beginers. Plus once your rdy to move on, its not like you threw a load of money away. |

The Gemini XL-500ii series are okay. I ate these babies before I had my Techs. They're okay for mixing but they don't have a lot of torque.

The Stanton ST-100 is also a decent table. They cost more than the Gemini XLs. I'd go with these. You don't hear about 'em much.

Well- I had some crap numark 1910's before- Definite torq problems with those.
You know if they would be better or worse than those? |

Go with Stanton. They used to be a part of Vestax. |

these tables are going pretty cheap (brand new) on ebay, and I would definitely buy them over the XL500s. I actually have a friend with the XLs and i thought the build quality looked horrible. |

I don't think he wants anything to do with NUMARK anymore. That's why I didn't post any Numark tables up.
