I sold my 1210s a while back and now I'm quite skint but need to get some more decks. Does anyone have any recommendations for really cheap decks, the only real requirements being.
1. They make records move in a circular motion.
2. They make sound come out the plugs.
3. They have pitch control.
I guess belt drive is the best option. But I want to hear everyones experiences with low end decks, good and bad.

| Avoid Belt-driven at all costs man.... You just don't get the necessary torque and consistent pitch-hold to play right. You can honestly get a decent pair of dex that are direct-driven, with plenty of torque for a great price. Where are you geographically?? |

| used gemini pt-2100III... you can get them for absolute dirt cheap if you can find them. nice bit of kit for someone looking to spend as little cash as possible but get a decent playing deck. i used a set for a year before i bought 1200s and the worked out very well. nice feel. closest thing you can get to a 1200's feel without buying a 1200. the pitch is much softer but it only takes a few minutes to get used to it. it will never be a 1200 but it will serve you well for a year or two. cheers. |
