They're all the same with added bells and whistles as you move up the food chain. None of them are very important to me, so I stuck with the standard MK2.

Though, I would much rather have a Stanton ST-150.

I like the Numark TTX with digital readout and high torque. I also like the Technic 1200 its a classic.

Definitley not work the extra $whatever. I don't even understand what the reset button is for, people too lazy to move a slider 2 inches?? I guess DJ Qbert or Kid Koala could use it for some kind of turntable instrumentation...?

^^If your hands were that quick (ie: DJ Qbert/Kid Koala), even at +/- 8 the transition of the slider moves quick enough back to 0 that the pitching effect would barely be noticable.

Not to mention the price difference between the MK2 and the other models is outrageous considering the minor, inexpensive changes. If you want blue LEDs, and an LED target light there are aftermarket mods -- some of them don't even require soldering.

yeah i just dropped about 850 getting a new pair of stanton st-150's, almost my whole summer pay check. definitley worth it though, they are dope for sure.

the build consturction is amazing, the key lock feature its probley the best thing on the deck though.
