Need advice with leveling and finding a stable dj stand
Posted on: 10.04.2013 by Latrina Pocock
So for a while now I have been having problems with keeping my turntables steady. I have tried all sorts of things. Currently i have a sefour x25 stand and i cant tell if i set it up improperly or if it just sucks because my needles jump no matter how light my hands are. So do any of you have good advice for remedying this as well as what a good dj stand for a turntablist would be?

Sounds to me like you need a bit more weight on your heads... Ive used some of the crappiest tables on earth and never had an issue back in the day.

I have an X25 which I use with 1210's and never had a problem with it. It's also got the top shelve where my midi fighters, F1 etc sit and has been totally stable.

Depends on your budget I suppose, how about a lite console xprs?

You can't GET sturder than that.

Bu now I've got an Ikea Expedit 4x2 with a tabletop and 2 legs on the back. Perfectly strudy, and no wall holes to repair!

Ghetto badass steady table that doesnt move. When I gig with x-stand my own equipemnt I use an odyssey X-Stand (Make sure you get the one with the brace int he middle) with my coffin on top. Never had any issues.
