The new Numark TTX1's. If any one has tried them out, are they any good or are they junk? My wanna-be DJ friend says they are better than the 1200's. I'm not really listening to him though because he thinks Funk Master Flex won the DMC world championship in 76. :\ That really kind of makes me sad that he thinks that lol.
I used to be a raver, used to take lots of E. Now I just smoke weed, and you know I will Succeed. :) |

I've seen them, I even went to the website to check them out. They look pretty impressive, but 1200's will always rule over any other turntable. I would like to try them out for a change though.

Well they certainly look sexy as hell to me
but then again i know all of nothing about it ;)
In the distant future i'd like to get muhself some decks, n at the very least make a hobby of things, and as amazing as 1200's sound... their also pricey
sooo at present i'm looking at some of the other numarks as alternatives
(no reason to, as i say... any actual purchase is the distant distant future)
but they look quality *shrugs* :)

they look awesome, and I don't know if I would be so quick to judge them against the technics being better. People get in a mode and established, just because techs have been THE standard for so long, doens't mean they can't be outdone. but i would like to see the numarks go the distance before i would buy them. doesn't they have a massive pitch range that might cause problems later?

The result of extensive research into turntable design and market demands, the new TTX1 deftly combines unmatched torque, incredible precision and the world's first interchangeable tonearm design for enhanced performance in a variety of applications - making the TTX1 the new standard in premium turntables.

Because fast and powerful torque is first and foremost for professional DJs, the TTX1 employs an all-new direct-drive-high-torque DC motor with multi-directional operation.

Reacts instantaneously to your hand while providing the utmost in stability
Brushless DC motor with open construction
PRECISION
Precise aluminum die-cast tonearm assembly. The TTX1 features the world's first interchangeable tonearm system, which allows straight and S-shaped tonearms to be easily interchanged to suit the desired style of mixing. The turntable comes with both straight and S-shaped tonearms.

CUSTOMIZABLE
Interchangeable pitch fader cartridge & button cartridge. Flexibility is afforded by interchangeable Pitch Fader and Button cartridges, providing optimum control whether the turntable is placed horizontally or vertically. In minutes the Pitch Fader can be removed from the conventional horizontal position for vertical setups. The TTX1 even senses the position of the pitch fader and updates the display orientation for maximum readability.
World's first truly multi-directional turntable, signaling a new era in customizability
Advanced technology senses position of cartridges and automatically updates the display orientation for optimal readability
CONSTRUCTION
Built to shut out exterior noise and vibration. The TTX1's performance is bolstered by a confidence-inspiring "Solid-Core" steel top and rubber base construction, which fights vibration and unwanted noise. Taken together, these features and industry-leading construction make the TTX1 the world's finest turntable, bar none.
USABILITY
The world's only multi-directional multi-functional display. A blue illuminated display provides clear Pitch, RPM, BPM and motor settings, while a super bright white LED with continuous strobe emphasizes the precision of the motor controller system. Selectable Pitch Range is +/-10, 20 and 50%, RPM is selectable between 33, 45 and 78; and a Key Lock feature allows DJs to change the music's tempo without changing its key. Instant Reverse control and continuously adjustable platter start and brake times permit a variety of turntable effects.

Last Friday I played my first official house (not house music) party and the tables they had there were the Numark TT1625's. They were very impressive and had excelent tork. They were brand new and didn't have but a few hours of play time on them so I'm not sure how they will do in the long run, but if someone is financially strapped and wanted a good set of tables I suggest the newer Numarks. I found the box set of what I played on for $299.99...2 TT1625, Numark mixer DM950, and headphones. I personally think that is a great deal figuring you can't get one 1200 for the price of 2 tables and a mixer.

you can change that how ever you like the pick is the turntable in battle mode. you can change tonearm and the way the pitch goes.
as pacman said "drooooooooooooooolllllssssssssss" lol

| milo |
can you physically move it, or do you rotate the table to make the pitch veritcal?
"It's all good..." |
| pacman |
yeah you can physically move it. if you look at the picture, the pitch fader comes out and can "swap" with the buttons. it does this so if you're scratching you can turn the table sideways so the tone arm is not in your way. neat huh?
drugs is not the answer... drugs? is the question... yes is the answer |

"In minutes the Pitch Fader can be removed from the conventional horizontal position"
numark faders never last long. these aren't designed to last long,but to be replaced by the looks of things

^^ While that is probably true but who cares look at all the other incredable features.

true,i must admit they're a sexy pair of decks with loads of stuff,but the last thing i'd want is the pitch slider to play up right in the middle of a live set

I agree that would suck but numark has been making better faders. On my friends numark mixer (can't remember name) the crassfader has lasted for like 3 months and it still works like new.

mine's lasted 7 months and it's just showing the first stages of wear. it's gemini but they own numark so it should last about the same with his mixer

Gemini owns Numark. I never new that. So when people say Numark sucks does that mean that Gemini sucks too?

nah,numark are the spin-off of gemini so the crapper smaller make if you want to call it that. i wouldn't say gemini are crap at all,they're not top notch like technics but for the price you pay for their gear they're pretty damn good
