Advantages: Well Built, Good reputation, Disadvantages: speed control
...The technics decks have been known as the "the best decks" for many years, but over the past year there have been many new decks that have been brought out that in my opinon are better that the technics. For example the VestaxPDX-2000 and the VestaxPDX-d3s are in my opinion a lot better that the technics sl-1200 if you compare the starting times the vestax decks are faster the have more pitch control a heavier tracking weight, reverse play, and the PDX-d3s has a digital pitch display. The vestax are not the only decks that are better than technics, the numark tt-2 have got a slower starting time but in every other aspect they are better. So if you are thinking of buying some top of the range decks dont just go for the technics....

Advantages: Very reliable and almost every part is replacable Disadvantages: They are not the best in terms of quality and value for money
...first off, i want to start this review by saying technics are brilliant, on performance they are nearly unbeatable. recently i bought a pair of decks and i was troubled with the question of which ones to buy? well there are 4 pairs of decks that i feel are top of the range, the best decks on the market, so i thought "well i could go for the numark TTx1s, they look cool they have the digital display, they have a large amount of tourque so when your cueing or scratching you can feel the deck trying to pull away from your hand, (trust me a good feel) But i decided no to these, next up was the vestaxPDX2000, well vestax are good decks for scratching they are the best only just though, vestax play how you would want a deck to play vestax just feel right but they are not the best and they are pretty ugly things to be honest, next pair...

Advantages: Great solid deck with high torgue with accurate pitch adjustment Disadvantages: none
...Amazing deck, still the choice of most professional DJ's even after all these years. They are built to last for years and years. They perform very well, they use a high torque motor and have very accurate pitch adjstment controls. They are direct drive which means they will spin at a good constant rate and unlike some other cheaper decks they don't suffer from power surges and speed up/down at random periods while being played. I feel these are the best decks available on the market even though there is some good competition from the vestaxpdx2000 and the d3's and also stanton srt8-100's are all very good quality decks, they don't have the history behind them like technics and I feel technics have had these decks around now for 20years and it is only really now that some serious competition has developed, that tells you something...

When I first used this deck I remember thinking how stiff it felt and to me felt quite cumbersome. But with the right slipmat and a bit of polish on the platter, it's a beauty to use!
I don't scratch, but I'm aware of how good this deck is for... more
For years and years most amateur and professional djs would have only used the common direct drive deck from Technics. Every club and DJ were used to the brand name and trusted its reputation. Times are changing!
