Do not, I repeat do not buy anything but technics. I have a friend with the gemini pt 2000's and not only is the deck kind of floppy, the sinc is off so while you're mxing you can never quite feel like it's dead on. Very frustrating. I also have friends in San FRan who uses the Vestax's (high end) and they feel an equal frustration in that when they play out, everybody always had 1200's set at plus 8, so you'll be mixing on unfamiliar decks. Technics just came out with the MK3's, the first improvement on an almost perfect product in a long time. I saw a guy selling them for cash in record time for 400 each, so deals are out there. Be careful, Gemini's were an expensive mistake. g i l e s d i c k e r s o n : T H E D I C K E R S O N G R O U P : 2 6 6 s u m m e r s t r e e t b o s t o n , m a . 0 2 2 1 0 : " v a l u e p o s i t i o n i n g " -----Original Message----- From: Clytemnestra's Favorite Uncle <xxxx@xxxx.xxx> To: intelligent dance <xxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx>; 313 list <xxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx>; analog heaven <xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx> Date: Tuesday, March 17, 1998 9:36 PM Subject: (313) WTB/WTT TurntablesZ >I'm in the market for some decent turntables -- used Technics SL1200, >Gemini PT1000 or PT2000, or the better Vestax tables.
