Hi all Very Happy

This is my first post on this board, need something while the trance.nu forums are offline...

Have anyone tried a Technics SL-2000 turntable? I've been offered two very cheaply, and I'm wondering if they're good for DJ use?
I know there's pitch control on them, but it's a small button, so it must be very unprecious...??

Thx, Rooger

Direct-drive turntable with ultra-low speed DC brushless motor. One-chip IC, incorporating functions of 78 elements, controls motor speed for superb accuracy. Elimination of high-speed motors and reduction mechanisms such as idler wheels and pulleys results in wow and flutter of 0.045% WRMS and rumble -70 dB DIN B. Insulation Fiber Board (IFB) and isolator system protects turntable from external vibrations. Viscous-damped cueing for smooth tonearm descent. Anti-skating control. Two speeds: 33 and 45 RPM. Independent variable pitch controls for each speed, with illuminated orange neon stroboscope for accurate speed setting. Tonearm features removable, universal headshell. Hinged, removable dust cover.

It is the 70's model Very Happy But what the fuck, they're direct drive...

It's only for bedroom use, can't afford 1210's or similiar... I can get two of them (SL-2000), for what equals about 70$.. It seems very fair to me, but I'm not sure if they're any good for mixing??
But I think I'll give it a try, it's not that much money after all....
