    avoid both at all costs, i've tried them both and they're pants.

    Either get a secondhand set of technics which are going cheap these days due to alot of people switching to ableton and cd decks, or get a set of vetsax.

    If you buy either of these, you will regret it later and lose most of the money trying to sell them on.

    they lose more value compared to technics second hand.

    but imo they offer a lot more than technics. the torque is alot stronger. much bigger range of speeds on offer.

    seriously last night i did a set on Vestax PDX 2000.

    speeding tracks up , slowing them down, beat matching one track in reverse mode and then forward back spinning it.

    you cant do that on technics.

    if you're speeding a track up more than you can on a set of technics, then you need to be having a word with yourself, as it will sound shit imo
