sl1210mk or sl120mk5 advice please

Ok people, i need some advice. I'm going to buy some new decks, which do people prefer/like to use:

sl1210 mk2
or
sl1210 mk5

Comments please.

Technics 1200 Mk2

Thery're basically the same mate except the mk5 has a pitch reset button (returns the speed of the pitch to neutral)
other than that go for the cheepest

nope


Mk5 has slightly stronger torque

Mk5 has a clickless pitch which means you dont have that fucking annoying thing in the middle of the pitch control


DEFINTELY go for mk5's

Its all about MK5Gs ooooo sparkley

I have mk2s and when i use me mates mk5s i can never get use to the pitch on them.

Mk2s

cheers

Thanks for your advice everyone. Agree with you Hannah, all sparkly and shiny but I have gone with the mk5.

I'm getting them of djfinancedirect.co.uk.
Out of interest, has anyone else used these?

sl1210mk3

MkII's

1200 mk2's

i do own a pair but not for long !!!!!1



going to a better home where they will be used more!!!

mk2's

hundred quid a pair extra for clickliss pitch is crazy

there can be only 1 = 1210 Mk2's

VERY reasonably priced new AND second hand

mk5's im gonna be buying some soon, sounds shallow but theyre slightly darker than mk2's and im willing to pay that bit extra for me setup to look better lol

Everyone knows that Vestax PDX2000's are much better anyway

Do any of the poeple with MK5s hace MK5Gs?

Need to get hold of three for a certain techno DJ in July

Cheers mate, need the Gs coz they've got +/- 16% and the 5s only have 8%.

Cheers though

I've had both.

Prefer the Technics personally

Personally i find mixing on technics a total chore and if im playing out somewhere that has 2 or more cdj800/1000s i will do the whole set off CD

30 Year Old techology for a 'futuristic' niche...i dont get it

I have to say i DETEST vestax decks, Technics far supieror imo

But lets not have this stupid argument AGAIN and AGAIN and AGAIN
