Ngaahhhh! God no! Stay away from these, they are terrible. You should be looking at Technics, and if you really can't afford these then have a look at the Gemini PT-2100. |

Obviously the XL-500's are the decks which you can afford, the PT-2100's would cost some $$ more but ther are worth it..
Numark have similar priced direct decks for around the same price for the XL-500's.. but from what i've heard, the cheaper Numark decks arent as good as the Gemini's
There are also the Stanton STR8-50's which have straight arms for mainly scracthing (which i dont think you are looking for) but they do provide better quality than the Gemini's for a slightly lower price than the XL-500's |

i have the gemini XL-500 II they are O.K. but the engine is very weak......
i worked a lot with the vestax and their engine is very strong..... |

| how do you mean weak ... are the going to be broken very fast or is it something else ? |

| They will probably be belt driven dex which are greatly hindered compared to direct drive dex. |

Keep away from Belt Drive's..They will drive you Bonka's in the long run and you will have a real low learning curve.
Try hiring a set of 1200's and you will want them |

yeah i know belt drive is not good
what about the Gemini XL - 200 ? |

Whatever you need to do to get tech1200's do it. I know they are expensive...but they are the only decks you want to learn/use/whatever. There is a reason why they are the only decks used in every club in the world.
They are worth it.
Peace,

The XL-500's arent belt driven.. they are direct.. the motor is weak because its one of the cheapest directs on the market.
The Stanton STR8-50's would have a higher torque motor.
And once and for all, yeah Technic's 1200's are the best, but this guy's budget doesnt stretch that far |
