  • dude more weight will certainly wear out the vinyl much quicker. Btw i have an old 1984 AR turntable. It plays good vinyl records but you dont ever want to "scratch" with it because the platter and tonearm are connected to a common t-bar and is attached to 3 springs that make it very bouncy but well isolated to thumps and knocks. It is also belt driven.

  • @MistaRob545 well thats my experience with numark's turntables man, no disrespect im just sayin

  • @djmarzek I've owned a pair of Numark Pro TT2s for 10 years now.....I can't even see the b.s. u talkin about them being a waste of money

  • @WallsOfRuin Nah, thanks. I tried with my parents old turn-table. It was built in some kind of furniture and it started smoking. It already was working poorly, though. This one, I don't want to ruin it. No chances. It's from my uncle and he recently passed away. I'll just buy a cheap one from a pawn shop instead. I have so many projects but so little money. I'll be more into DJ-ing in a few months as time is crazy. Thanks for replying :D The dream is still there.

  • I cheaply bought a Technics SL-220 from my uncle. It's old and i'm sure I can't scratch with it and I don't even have a mixer (yet) but is it possible to scratch with it? I don't want to try because last time I tried with my old turn-table (my parents) smoke came out and declared for junk. (:

    Thanks! Nice vid, too. Wish I had that kind of set-up.

  • i got technics to but also have so numark belt drive i scratch on both and the only diffent thing on the technics is the responce is faster on pitch and play

  • @fetusman1
