Best value:
Excellent
(Originally written by DJsepto/translated from Audiofanzine FR)
- How long have you been using it?
2 years, and I own two. I believe it has been discontinued by BST.
- Which feature do you like best?
I love the heavy aluminum plate and the high-precision tonearm which are rare features for a BST. I also like the more than generous torque, the accurate pitch and the different available settings.
The manufacturing quality is very good, the unit is really heavy unlike the BST 136, 236, 100, 200, 300 and 400! The target light is cool and it provides the turntable an old-school look, not like the latest models which look more like toys.
- Which feature do you like least?
It needs a grounded outlet otherwise you might experience an electrostatic discharge! In which case you will have to exchange a component but nothing too serious... Anyway, every house is grounded nowadays, except mine!
- Did you try any other models before buying it?
Yes, a Vestax PDX 2000. I prefer to mix with the BST and scratch with the Vestax.
- How would you rate its value for money?
Excellent. It's a not-too-expensive professional turntable!
Based on your experience, would you buy this product again?
Absolutely. it's a great turntable for beginners and not-so-beginners...
