Mind you, they must think it easier to make some makeshift bolox of an oil-rig to sit your decks on, then put some stanton 500's on the decks.

The mind boggles...
since researching into needles about 3 months ago, i now take a pair of m44-7's to EVERY gig. and after doing about 20 gigs in that time i now will NEVER EVER in my whole live use anything other than those needles. i've even just bought a set for the studio (i really can't listen to records played with anything but these needles now) and a set for clubs. sure the records still jump occasionally but OMG i can't believe i've played for so many years without them. as soon as the next dj comes on and i take them off, if they're playing vinyl, the loss in sound quality is incredible. so much so i just can't hear the music anymore.
Word. the m-447's are the mutss nuts, been using them for about 2 years now and will NOT use anything else.
