no-brainer Feb 11, 2008
a DJ turntable for hi-fi? yes! powerful, stable, weighty, easy to set up and use.
i always wondered why my belt-drive turntables wouldn't spin with the cleaning brush applied to a record...the price to pay for better isloated/quieter system? cleaning a record on this table is not going to stop the platter and i was pleasantly surprised that the sound quality exceeded my thorens td-160 (which sounded better than my B&O, luxman, AR and entry-level rega).
all of my previous turntables are eclipsed by the 1210, if you're on the fence (looking for a sub-$2K unit) go for it. if you're thinking of a USB 'table... :-P

Holy [..] Feb 22, 2007
Absolutely blow away. Precise tracking, skate, balance controls. Unwavering drive speed, extremely low rumble and is also a very well isolated unit.
Fantastic for audiophile enthusiasts or archiving to digital. Highly recommended unit. Also beautiul to look at, a bonus.
Oh, apparently you can DJ with this thing too...
Mated with a low noise pre-amp, and audiophile quality needle/cartridge (not included) delivers amazing sound. Literally makes the need for replacing your LP's with new CD's unecessary unless heavy wear present.
Very pleased and the 1210's available in black, 1200's in silver will match most home set-up schemes.
Definetly to be considered a high-end unit.

The De Facto Turntable Aug 20, 2006
I am a DJ/Beatmaker from Brooklyn N.Y. and have grown up with hip-hop. The 1200's are the de facto standard for DJ's and studio work. There is a reason why they are found in every club and studio on the planet! They have solid build, very stable and realiable....will last a lifetime! I had an older pair that went "missing" during a move and so I had to replace them with these. I brought two and highly recommend them to all turntablist and beatmakers...........keeping it hot in East New York......Supreme.

Craftsmanship, Stability, Accuracy Jul 05, 2006
TECHNICS have overturned the status quo in the turntable market. The craftsmanship of the MK5's are unmatched. I tested both the Numark TTX1's and Technics 1210 MK5's.
The Numarks are great, I really cannot put them down. In fact I may get one of them for my son. However, not just relying on the Technics history or popularity, but on actual hands on testing and comparing to other decks, the Technics just feel so much better.
The stability and strength of these decks when mixing, scratching, blending and beat juggling is simply superior. When rubbing the vinyl on the MK5's you can tell it is a premium product.
