All user reviews for the Technics SL-1200 MK2

- How long have you use it?
Yesterday. Only a few hours, just to redcouvrir few dozen 45 rpm that I did not come out of boxes for over 10 years ... Ah, that sound, that this stability rgularit!

- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
The "touch" is simply gnial. Cel dj some years that I did not touch a vinyl turntable, I had forgotten what a pleasure it afforded this machine! But I do not shut my first attempt, since I dj boss several times with radio and there discothque 15 / 20 years. I use it with the traditional Shure SC35, which is not the best unit that we can find, but I find to be a trs good value quality / price.
Ct installation (installation of spices), no particular problem. I just find funny that the record prconise limit the assembly / disassembly of the plate to minimize dterioration magnets, as she places the tray assembly of this Premire tape mounting and a little further, it is requested vrifier the switch to select the voltage ... situ in this set! It is a dtail, but good. The rest of the manual is pretty clear.

- Have you tried other models before acqurir?
Yes, BST (PR90) and others before I can not remember the name even more. The stages were well suited for my use, it is true that the era I could not m'offir of SL1200 ... But there is no photo, SL1200 has nothing to do with my old ct BST (well, I not telling you anything, I guess).

- How do you report qualitprix?
Well, if its reliability is legendary verifies. The rising price of this board since 2001 is a little ashamed, even if one takes into account the potential decrease in the number of users. I was not empch investing, having said that ...

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
Oh yes!

4 years since I use them and still I have bought used someone who kept them for two years, then 6 years old and not a scratch, no RVision.
The plate is vynil, a diva who will fter 40 years, MODEL indtronable, its heavy and robust platform provides all the practices of deejaying, his only default pitch which allows r Gler speed that 8 / -8 part in anything.
Fun fact: if a person goes on, the board continued to work, turning the individual 33 rpm (it seems, I never tried personal)
Without hsitation, I do it again the same choice. Even if its price is lev I highly recommend, especially not going to buy one for beginners, pay a platinum least CHRE and realize after a year it takes change is not a good opration, start it directly by the

When a product is simply the top, you have to recognize
Seeing to date a little flat in the "notation" of this product, I am involved in helping to improve its rating
What are you looking in a plate?
Robustness, reliability, scratchable at will ...?
Ah yes, there is no reverse button actually ...
I have my pair since 1992, I did say 5.6 years of parties, wedding parties as "MIDI" with .
I have carted in cars with comfort doubtful hundreds of times, they drank champagne, of course, like all the world (!) ... In the evening, the bulb of the spot you know that fart? The speaker that will turn off suddenly? The amp that slap in the marriage (I was not really proud that day !!!!!!!!) too?
I never had to just think about my pair of MK2 is simply indestructible and do forget so it's reliable
Yes, when we go in like a nag scratching, sometimes also the arm jumps (sometimes ...), actually ...

Here, the turning of a forum I D on the opinions of the MK2, so I'm with a mission and removing the blow mine
I had to have the bst time, I do not even remember so it was next toy ...
Similarly, the price of the MK2 has increased??
-> But the price of the MK2 is completely ridiculous for the quality it offers high-end, compared for example (although not really comparable) the price of a single micro high-end ... you do 3 weddings and your pair is paid off, because in addition it is one of the few work tools quickly refundable
There, I said what I had to say about it ... I love you my darling ... ... lolololololllllllllllllllllllllll
20/10, obviously!

-I have since ... 2003 ... they had already for 3 years after its owner, p't'etre more ....
-I like everything about it, even in his living room with deco, it's terrible
"I spent a year on pr106 bst to see if I could mix before investing in Technics, nothing to do, necessarily, it's like moving from a Peugeot 106 was a Porsche 924, and I speaks knowingly!
Technics-pity does that raise prices while manufacturing is amortized, and long, the logic would have wanted the mk5 apparraisse the price of a mk2, which she would drop off significantly ... be aware that 'there is a kit in reverse technics for those who find lack of ca ...
-Yes I would do this choice, it is the only lment never wavered in my team, no need to look elsewhere in decks, just the RCA has changed because of frequent disconnections, it is not death ... and think the oil drop all the Technics 2000h of operation, they say, it's not for nothing!

IN CONCLUSION I compare TECHNICS SL1200 MK2-1210 THE PORSCHE 911: TIMELESS TIMELESS tireless tireless .... SHE CONTINUES ROAD REGARDLESS OF OTHER AND IT IS RIGHT

Everything has been said above, so I'll just say like everyone else because there's nothing else to say, this plate is the bomb, here is the most versatile mix of market / scratch and no other deck can not even compete for the vestax mix and not even stanton numark not, why? because in many other brands have found the absence of serial or other concerns while nobody has a problem technics well except those who for 100 years (and yes the light does not work anymore ... what a shame) and technics frankly, this is the only manufacturer to have achieved perfection from the beginning, some find them ugly compared to new, but good reliability has to choose between life and beauty there is not to say my choice is made! technics for life!

- How long have you use it?

In fact I do not use more than 9 years (I found better) but I had for 5 long years ... Those who say that can not compete Vestax scratch issue, I agree completely, on the other hand Question ... er mix I laugh, Vestax is very far superior to the Technics on this point
- What is so special that you like most and least?

While at the plate, it is undoubtedly the very best, with a good pair of felt, the disc slides without stop, unlike a lot of decks "cheap" as gemini, and bst consors .
For it is a pitch against the infamous horror, not specific to one penny goes wrong all the time (when you see your plate instead of speed up slow when you have a% you will understand). The mix requires a +0.2% you forget, we must accelerate the other deck to enter a range of the pitch more comfortable on the other ...
- Have you tried many other models before buying it?

I tried at a friend of BST, sub brands such as FTE and others ... I soon realized the obvious: It would be better saved to buy Technics, at the time (1994) could not compete with it .
- How would you rate the quality / price?

We found new ones in Switzerland for less than 600 CHF (325 €), since they, like all the decks in general, outbreaks. Things certainly due to the practice of deejaying, which has become widespread. Before there were only discos, mobile disco and rare hip hop DJ who get them. With the advent of technology, demand has increased considerably ...
They are found in a time of good prices, if you're hardcore, do not hesitate, except the pitch, they are indestructible.
-With experience, you do again this choice? ...

Well at the time, yes, of course, but now there are much better turntables. The conccurents after searching for years to have the recipe without success eventually find it ... And then, wherever you go, you will only find TECHNICS, so much to buy, you mixerez "at home"

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.

- How would you rate the quality / price?
a little expensive but good ... Platinum is the No. 1 ^ ^
- With experience, you do again this choice? ...
Eyes closed the

It is true that the price might not seem excessive for a first purchase ... buy a stew but a € 200 less, is throwing money out the window ... I do not know enough about the 2 / 3 models that appear to compete seriously for the mk2 tt put it in case ...
Anyway, this player is a legend ... and legends of a manufactured & sold the same after 30 years, the yen is not much ...
If only Roland fesait same with his BAR!
