    Ha! the MKII, that's hip hop. It is in the line of good old-MPC 2000XL. It's heavy, sturdy (must not throw out the window because of nomplus 2 kick flare that does not want to spend). I was dreaming for a long time I have for 4 years.

    Me is tried other digital turntables with useless. Not really convinced by these arguments, despite the sale, the Technics do not need arguments, it's like a good wine is good and that's all feet.

    What I like most any material like that I buy, simple and effective! Least, it was too expensive for me when I was minority.

    The price / quality ratio is necessarily good, especially with the devaluation and market OCCAZ.

    With the experience I would do this choice with his eyes closed, I still and I do not trade it against any digital gadget. Coupled with Serato and a macbook is a war machine reliable and ready to follow you on a tour without flinching.

    I sold them against the heart even though I do not use Assé to justify keeping them. These are bike that lasts a lifetime, maybe even two if your son want to be a DJ one day.

    - I use them for 3 years. RAS
    - Purchased only by reputation and by friends DJ.
    - Ultra expensive, but highly competitive, top quality, no wear in 3 years (except diams and cell!)
    - A remake? Ouiiiii

    - Cons: Pitch not broad enough for my taste, weight system not powerful enough to scratch, on / off button very sensitive.
    9 / 10, because perfection does not exist ...

    The Technics Sl 1200 MK2 are a series of turntables that have actually been around for a while now. The MK2’s are more on the lower end of the totem pole because there are upgraded versions now of these. But they are classic and still built to last. The original model of this line was the SL 1200 then the MK2’s started, the MK2 I think came out in the 80’s and it was huge through out the up and coming world of hip hop and rap music, which is part of the reason the Technics SL 1200 MK2 made its way to the united states. I like the tone arm, its very sturdy and it’s a classic design with the S shape, turntables today don’t have these.

    The MK2’s came out a while back in Europe but made there way over here to the US and am I glad they did! They are very good turntables, they are exactly what a DJ needs, even today with everything going digital and dj’s switching over to computer software to dj on. There are a few dj’s who still own these myself included who value the real art of dj’ing.

    Overall these were and still are great turntable’s they are built to last, very solid structure and very sturdy. They are ready for any gig you have and will not break on your even when getting them in and out of the back of the van. You can even purchase a casing for them so you don’t damage them at all. Actually purchasing parts for the Yamaha SL MK2’s is pretty easy because Yamaha still manufacturers these and pretty much all of there machines keep the same parts line so if you ever need a fix even if its discontinued you can still purchase a part. Great turntables!

    without a doubt. do not hesitate a single second, if you want plates, is the best choice you can made. And if you have no money, better to wait a bit and be patient rather than to regret having to buy stuff through.

    I use depuit 2 months
    resent direct fishing on what
    I try numark
    failed to top even the high end
    for the quality there is no price
    even if the person seeing it can easily discover and buy second-hand finds
    I advise everyone had a plate!

    - How long have you use it?

    I use these mythical plate for 1 week.

    - What is so special that you like most and least?

    The stability of the plateau, the torque exceptionally good and reliable over time (my turntables, bought used more than ten years of intensive evenings).
    His reputation is largely conpréhensive.
    Weight (13 kg) is a very big advantage (stability, acoustic), especially when I go out of a dark period TT1650, which weighs only 5 kilos. So I speak knowingly.
    Quality scratch perfect, provided to adapt the cells adapted to such use.

    The only thing I blame is the lamp that seems to burn quickly and the price (I got lucky on my side regarding this issue but good). …

    - Have you tried many other models before buying it?

    Numark TT1650, stay away unless bought at great prices and START USED CAR CAN NOT BE DRAWN FROM NOTHING SERIOUS, Gemini XL models (what a joke this style ...), vulgar imitation in terms of CD :
    Pioneer CDJ 1000MK3 and 800, Denon DNS 1000, 3500 ...
    The high-end Denon is as good but better to combine a mk2 / serato in the digital, unless it is to mix in pitch + / - 50% if you know what I mean.

    - How would you rate the quality / price?

    Quality has a price, but justified.

    - With experience, you do again this choice? ...

    Oh yes I do it again.
    DJ DJ FRIENDS OR FUTURE, do not slam your money in the shit, go for safe bets AND REFERENCES.

    I've bought used and I'm not. If I learned one thing in the audio field, it is that we should not rush on the low end (which I did ...). It is better to SAVE.

    And then these plates are indestructible, if indeed they do not let up sleeping outside in the humidity (and still be seen).

    You want to be sure what you buy? Take a mk2. Especially that 200 euros, and we find that price, you do not normment choice.

    My motto is: take as much good as nine OCCAZ rotten.
