Stanton SR150 vs Technics
Stanton SR150 vs Technics Posted on: 26.11.2012 by Yuki Derreberry I have acquired some money and want to buy a new pair of turn tables what i'm not sure are if I should get 1200s or try out the Stanton StR150 that I have heard about but never used. I do not won a pair of Techs but have used them so i'm used to them but the Stanton's I know nothing about | |
Lina Rawie 27.11.2012 | I've owned STR8-150s for a few years and used 1200s on and off for even longer. The Technics have an overall better build quality, but the STR8-150s are well past the "good enough" point and are very solidly built. Technics also have the advantage when it comes to servicing and spares. There's one site that sells spares for the STR8-150 that I know of - and the parts are dirt cheap too ( |

Shan Bauerly 27.11.2012 | I have 1200 M3Ds, but if buying new, the Stanton (or any of the super OEM tables) are really nice, IMO. I really like the DJTech units, personally. I position mine in "battle mode" and often wish the start/stop buttons were on both corners like the new style units, but alas - I just need to calm down. In my lifetime (I'm a '73 model), I believe production of vinyl turntables will cease. Going with Technics, you get a near infinite supply of parts, and videos etc. on how to mod and/or service them. Good on you for getting a set. Nothing in the world feels as good as 12" spinning platters and a dancefloor of grateful guests. ^^Loopcat - WTF?^^ |
Ming Devis 26.11.2012 | Stay out of it fan boys. |
Evelynn Pennycook 26.11.2012 | Used both techs and stantons - ST-150s or Str8t-150s are better. There are many articles and community post on opinions. Comparing the two is usually a preference on the user or fanboys of one of the brands. Here is a really good review on the stanton's. http://www.digitaldjtips.com/2010/12...-dj-turntable/ |
Johnetta Olewine 26.11.2012 | The stantons are really really good tables. I'd look at getting to St-150 curved arm version though. I'm just not really that into straight arm turntables. |
Federico Vilas 26.11.2012 | technics are built better but no longer made...if you do not want the hassle of possible common problems when buying used 1200s then buy the str8150's...never heard any complaints about them and if qbert uses them in his school I'd call that a win |
