It's @sleepwalkers65 favorite subject. He always refer to " rap- "DJ" " because they are from the black community and plays something he can't understand or doesn't like. Everyone should looks at his posts about DJs in the different threads on audiogon before they are all were deleted by the moderator, he even called them "sub human rap- DJs" just because he's too old for their own African-American Subculture. "If he wants to be a rap-“DJ”, then he doesn’t need a turntable, but need a serato box and a rap controller or two." Isn't his post are disgusting? I think so. The reason is just total misunderstanding of the subject, in his opinion all Hip-Hop DJs are the same, he is the one who knows better what they need (vinyl and turntables or controllers). For some reason his negative related to RAP which is a certain genre of black music as a part of the african-american culture that was born in the late 70s (way before CD was invented, it's all about vinyl when it comes to music media for DJs). Controller is one of the modern tool available for youth, but vinyl is still HUGE on the DJ scene worldwide. No matter which genre of music, i will repead it again for you: DJs are record collectors first! For everyone who are using CLICHE to describe or underrated DJ culture (of all genres) i would recommend to read this book first. |
@rocky1313 Technics SL1200 mkII was invented for home use as a Hi-Fi component, this turntable was adopted by DJs because of the +/- 8% pitch control fader and powerful Direct Drive motor, but you can still use them for home listening, you can upgrade them as i did with mine, look here. A brand new Ultra High-End Technics SL-1200GAE has the same proportions as the iconic SL1200mkII, but internally it’s completely different beast. There is a pitch control like on earlier models, so what is the question? "For DJ or home use ?" What’s the difference? They are a Hi-Fi (SL1200 mkII) and High-End (SL1200G and GAE) that can be used for DJing and for home listening. They are universal, the difference in pirce is huge, the SL-1200G ($4000) and limited edition GAE ($9000) are so much better than cheap old SL1200 mkII ($300-500 used). |
